Coeliac · Gluten-free

B
confidence 75%

The menu marks gluten-free items with a symbol. The official website states: 'ALLERGY DESIGNATIONS ARE INFORMATIONAL ONLY. OUR KITCHEN DOES NOT HAVE GUARANTEED PRACTICES TO PROTECT AGAINST CROSS-CONTAMINATION.' The restaurant does not have a dedicated fryer, so fried items are at risk. Multiple community reviews confirm pho is the only reliably safe option and warn about cross-contamination, with one symptomatic celiac reporting illness. Staff knowledge varies.

Honest caveat: Shared kitchen without dedicated fryer; at least one celiac reviewer reports getting sick after eating pho.

confidence 70%

Vegan-friendly items are marked on the menu with a symbol, and HappyCow reviews confirm clearly labeled vegan options (tofu pho, vermicelli, spring rolls, etc.). The venue serves meat, and the kitchen is shared with no guaranteed practices against cross-contamination. Staff can accommodate requests (e.g., soy-based dressing instead of fish sauce).
