Zambrero Essendon

Menu marks bowls, nachos, hard tacos, chips, and several sides as GF using a per-dish GF symbol. Burritos and quesadillas are not marked GF (wheat tortillas). A dedicated allergen info page is referenced (zambrero.com.au/allergens) but was not captured in these sources. No dedicated GF kitchen or fryer is mentioned; gluten-containing items (flour tortillas, toasted burritos) are prepared in the same kitchen, so cross-contamination risk exists.
