I wouldn’t recommend this place. There were only a few items marked GF on the menu. When I ordered they told me they couldn’t guarantee no cross contamination. I asked if they can take as many precautions as possible and then I learned that the tapioca (a Brazilian dish like an omelette) was fried in a shared friar. This place is not good for a celiac.

Not dedicated gluten free. Menu marked but not a lot of GF options. However they were super friendly and helpful modifying other dishes to be GF. Very tasty. Cool ambiance.

We stopped here for an early dinner as it was close to our hotel. The menu was well-marked and the server who helped us seemed knowledgeable of allergies. I tried the tapioca croquettes, tartare and grilled veggies. The server confirmed that the croquettes were fried in a separate fryer from the other breaded items. The grilled veggies were my favorite. I also tried the deli & Thai tapioca pudding dessert. I loved that the sweetness only came from the mango. I felt very full, but not (symptomatically) sick, afterwards.

Starter (vegetable & chips) decorated w/ Wasabi, so probably not 100% gf although marked, so I missed it out. Chicken curry was good though.

Clearly marked menu with a no wheat symbol. There were options in all parts of the menu: appetizers, entrees, and desserts. We had the tapioca cheese and tomato appetizer and the balsamic honey chicken quinoa bowl. Both were very tasty. You can choose downstairs normal seating or to go upstairs where you remove your shoes and sit at low tables with candle light. It was a great meal! Service was a little slow but I didn’t get sick from the meal so fine by me!
