Per-allergen evidence
The restaurant is reported to have a gluten-free menu, with gluten-free items marked on the menu and on daily specials. Staff are trained to ask whether a diner is coeliac or gluten intolerant. Some dedicated equipment is available, including a separate toaster for gluten-free bread and a dedicated pasta pot. Staff will also clean the kitchen or change gloves as needed. However, there is no dedicated fryer, and the kitchen is shared, so the risk of cross-contamination is acknowledged. Owner Lisa Schroeder instructs kitchen and waitstaff on dietary needs. Multiple coeliac and gluten-intolerant diners report no reactions, but the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility and has no accreditation.
