Gluten-free items are marked on the menu and staff take precautions such as cleaning pans and having the head chef verify allergy tickets. However, the kitchen is shared with no dedicated gluten-free fryer, so cross-contamination is possible. One reviewer reported a reaction, but most had positive experiences.
