Coeliac · Gluten-free

B
confidence 70%

Many dishes on the official menu are marked as 'glutenfree' (GF), and multiple community sources confirm GF options such as waffles, bread, and acai bowls. One coeliac reviewer reports that the kitchen refused to use a clean pan, stating everything is cooked on the same surface with no dedicated fryer. Another coeliac was turned away due to high cross-contamination risk. The venue is not a dedicated GF facility and has no formal accreditation.

Honest caveat: Two independent coeliac reviewers report the venue refused to use a clean pan or could not accommodate due to cross-contamination risk.

Dairy-free

confidence 50%

FindMeGlutenFree lists Nusa Café under 'Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Friendly Places' in Rio de Janeiro, and a reviewer notes it is 'Good for dairy-free'. The official menu shows dishes containing dairy, for example cream cheese, queijo de cabra, Nutella, doce de leite, and sour cream, but does not mark dairy-free options. No dedicated dairy-free kitchen or accreditation is mentioned.

Always confirm with venue staff before ordering. Tiers and accreditations are guides, not guarantees.
