⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which means cross-contamination risk exists in the kitchen and on shared equipment.
- Some menu items (e.g., certain soups) may not be gluten-free; always verify each component and sauces before ordering.
- While staff have been described as knowledgeable and helpful about gluten-free needs in several recent experiences, there is at least one report noting some uncertainty. Clear communication with the server about gluten-free requirements is important.
- Cross-contact precautions (e.g., changing gloves, grill cleaning) have been mentioned in at least one positive experience, but this cannot be assumed universal for every visit.
