Review of Arepas Latin Cuisine

Numerous gluten free items on the menu, all clearly marked. I had two arepas and a basket of fries. All tasty and filling. Outdoor seating with propane heaters is a great bonus for covid safety. I'm looking forward to returning here regularly.

Note: the menu on the website doesn't have all the gf items marked.

The first time I called the restaurant I had a hard time getting details about gluten safety procedures. Therefore I contacted the owner, Joanna, who kindly explained everything. Most of the items are gluten-free and the are brought in from an external facility, so there is very little possibility of cross-contact. Joanna to be familiar with the concept of cross-contact and assured me that many people who are concerned about gluten eat at the restaurant. When I visited the restaurant my server was knowledgeable about gluten and reassured me about the items I ordered.

How confident are you that this establishment takes safety precautions against cross-contact?
