It’s not a dedicated GF facility but I’ve found it safe. I’m a highly sensitive celiac and able to eat here without issue. I avoid deep fried food as usual but the ingredients are fresh and the food is good. It’s more of a take out restaurant with only about 3 tables inside so it’s a great grab and go place unless it’s nice enough to sit outside.

This is NOT a dedicated facility as other people stated. Yes, the menu is gluten free, but they share a kitchen with the restaurant next door where they have many gluten filled foods. They told me they try to keep things as clean as possible, but there is a possibility for cross contamination. That’s not what I was expecting and with having celiac I did not want to chance it, so I didn’t end up eating here.

I’ve never been to an all GF restaurant before. First time I’ve eaten out where I didn’t have to worry at ALL about cross contamination. Free parking on residential streets. Delicious. More of a carry out place, but they had seating for about 6-8 so we ate inside. I made my own bowl of delicious Caribbean flavors. The fried plantains rocked my world. It’s 25 minutes from my house. I’ll gladly drive there again.
