Marked menu + dedicated, Allergen-marked menu plus dedicated fryer / prep area. Staff trained. Not a fully dedicated kitchen.

Multiple HappyCow reviews confirm dedicated vegan menu items (plant-based steak, vegan calamari, Wagyu cheeseburger, chicken parmigiana) created by celebrity chef Shannon Martinez. The venue is listed as 'Veg-options' on HappyCow. However, the kitchen is shared with meat and dairy dishes, so cross-contamination is possible. No dedicated vegan fryer or prep area is mentioned.
