confidence 90% ·

Verifiably safe, Independently verified safe for this allergen: either a 100% dedicated kitchen (no allergen on premises) or a current accreditation we've matched against the body's own published directory.

The restaurant is 100% vegan, which means every dish is also suitable for vegetarians. No animal products of any kind are used — no meat, fish, dairy, eggs, or honey. A dedicated vegan kitchen covers all vegetarian needs automatically.

Honest caveat: Not a certified vegetarian kitchen — the claim is self-declared and supported by the venue's own marketing and community consensus, but no formal vegetarian accreditation was cited.

Dairy-free

confidence 90% ·

Verifiably safe, Independently verified safe for this allergen: either a 100% dedicated kitchen (no allergen on premises) or a current accreditation we've matched against the body's own published directory.

This is a 100% vegan restaurant. No dairy products — milk, cheese, cream, butter, or any animal-derived ingredient — are used anywhere in the kitchen. The entire menu is dairy-free by design. A dedicated vegan kitchen eliminates cross-contamination risk from dairy.

Honest caveat: Not a certified dairy-free kitchen — the claim is self-declared and widely reported by community reviews, but no formal accreditation or independent audit was cited.

Egg-free

confidence 90% ·

Verifiably safe, Independently verified safe for this allergen: either a 100% dedicated kitchen (no allergen on premises) or a current accreditation we've matched against the body's own published directory.

This is a 100% vegan restaurant. Eggs are not used in any dish — no omelettes, baked goods with eggs, or egg-containing sauces. The entire menu is egg-free by design, and a fully vegan kitchen means no cross-contamination risk from eggs.

Honest caveat: Not a certified egg-free kitchen — the claim is self-declared and widely repeated across community reviews, but no formal accreditation was cited.

Shellfish-free

confidence 95% ·

Verifiably safe, Independently verified safe for this allergen: either a 100% dedicated kitchen (no allergen on premises) or a current accreditation we've matched against the body's own published directory.

This is a 100% vegan restaurant. Shellfish — prawns, crab, lobster, or any seafood — is never used in any dish. The kitchen is entirely plant-based, so there is zero risk of shellfish cross-contamination.

Honest caveat: Not a certified shellfish-free kitchen — the claim is self-declared and supported by the venue's concept and unanimous community reports, but no formal accreditation was cited.

Vegan

confidence 85% ·

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

This is a 100% vegan restaurant serving plant-based Ital cuisine. Every dish is vegan by design — the entire menu is naturally free of meat, dairy, eggs, and honey. No need to ask for modifications; everything on the menu is suitable for vegans.

Honest caveat: Not a certified vegan kitchen — the claim is self-declared by the venue and repeated across many reviews, but no independent accreditation (e.g. Vegan Society Trademark) was cited.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 45% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The venue is reported to accommodate gluten-free requests: staff are described as knowledgeable about ingredients and willing to clean the kitchen space or change gloves. However, there is no dedicated gluten-free menu, no separate prep area, and no dedicated fryer. The FindMeGlutenFree listing explicitly warns it is NOT a dedicated gluten-free facility and may not be safe for coeliac disease. Several other sources mention 'gluten-free options' generically without detail. Best for confident gluten-intolerant diners willing to talk directly with staff; cross-contamination risk is real for coeliac.

Honest caveat: Multiple sources note the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility and may not be safe for coeliac disease; one coeliac reviewer ate there but acknowledged the risk.

Nut-free

confidence 40% ·

Limited information, Thin positive signal only: a stray menu callout, a single passing review mention, or generic dietary marketing without specifics. Not enough to assess kitchen practice. Call ahead and confirm before relying on it.

Some dishes contain nuts (e.g. cashew 'cheese' pastry mentioned in a review), but the overall menu and kitchen practice around nut allergens is unknown. No source provides any detail on dedicated equipment, labelling, or staff training for nut allergies. Call ahead to confirm whether specific nut-free options are available and how cross-contamination is managed.

Honest caveat: No documented nut-free procedures or ingredient lists found; a cashew-based dish is reported, indicating nuts are present in the kitchen.

Soy-free

confidence 35% ·

Limited information, Thin positive signal only: a stray menu callout, a single passing review mention, or generic dietary marketing without specifics. Not enough to assess kitchen practice. Call ahead and confirm before relying on it.

No source mentions soy content, labelling, or kitchen practice regarding soy. Many vegan dishes can contain soy (tofu, tempeh, soy sauce), but the venue's daily-changing menu makes it impossible to assess without direct inquiry. Call ahead to discuss soy-free needs with staff.

Honest caveat: No soy-specific information available; many plant-based staples are soy-based, so cross-contamination risk is assumed.
