Safety Overview

Celiac safety assessment and key features

83%
Good

Luna La Mer feels like a true haven for celiacs, thanks to the personal touch—one of the owners lives with celiac disease and has built the menu with our safety in mind. While it’s not a dedicated gluten-free facility, staff use separate prep areas, utensils, and pans for gluten-free items, and everything is clearly labeled. Their house-baked GF focaccia and pastries are a revelation (honestly, when was the last time you trusted a café croissant?), and prepared take-home meals add an extra layer of convenience. There’s something comforting about knowing someone on the inside truly gets it; you can almost taste the care in every bite.
