Ema

Not a dedicated gluten-free facility (disclaimer on site). Multiple community reviews confirm a dedicated gluten-free fryer, marked menu items (GF flags), knowledgeable staff, and allergy flagging on dishes. One reviewer reports getting sick twice; cross-contamination risk remains due to shared kitchen. Overall, a well‐trained staff and designated fryer provide a solid safety protocol for celiac diners, though the shared prep space prevents a higher tier.
