Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

Vegan options are clearly marked on the menu and staff are aware, but some dishes contain egg and there is no dedicated vegan prep area. Multiple reviews note 'vegan options clearly marked', 'ingredients clearly listed', and staff helpful in identifying vegan dishes. However, several reviews warn that some dishes contain egg, and one HappyCow reviewer explicitly states the food is 'not vegan or vegetarian' due to crab powder. Cross-contamination risk with egg is acknowledged.
