Esencia Restaurante Coruña
The restaurant’s owner is coeliac, so the kitchen takes gluten seriously.
Per-allergen evidence
The restaurant’s owner is coeliac, so the kitchen takes gluten seriously. They work with ACEGA, the Galician coeliac association, for supervision and staff training. The menu clearly marks which dishes contain gluten and which can be adapted. Some dishes still contain gluten, so the kitchen is not fully dedicated, but the owner’s personal stake and ACEGA involvement make this a reliable choice for coeliac diners. Confirming with staff about cross-contamination precautions is advised.
