Our kitchen handles gluten, nuts, dairy, egg and crustaceans. Gluten-free penne, cooked in separate water — this is not a gluten-free kitchen, and we cannot guarantee that any dish is free from any allergen. Parmesan is always served on the side, so a vegan dish stays vegan unless you ask for it. Tell us what you cannot eat before you order and we will tell you exactly what is in it.
