Insider-led, Owner, chef, staff, or a close friend or family member needs to avoid this allergen themselves; kitchen practice reflects that.

The owner, Andrea, is the driving force behind this plant-based restaurant. Multiple HappyCow reviews and a blog feature confirm the menu is entirely vegan (except optional organic farm eggs). The kitchen is open and food is made from scratch, with no meat on premises. The owner's personal ethos and the restaurant's concept provide strong structural assurance for vegan diners.

The restaurant is fundamentally vegan/vegetarian, with the only non-vegan option being optional organic farm eggs. The owner's plant-based philosophy and the kitchen's structure make this inherently safe for vegetarians.

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

The HappyCow listing tags the venue as 'Gluten-free' and a review states 'Everything on the menu is vegan and gluten free'. However, the blog mentions 'lots of gluten free options' (not 100% GF), and the venue shares a building with a meat-serving restaurant (Dulzura Argenta) with separate kitchens. No dedicated gluten-free kitchen or accreditation is confirmed. Cross-contamination risk is present from the shared building and potential shared ingredients.
