Allergens & disclosures.

What's in your food, what California law requires us to tell you, and how to ask for substitutions.

California SB 68 — Major Food Allergens

California Senate Bill 68 (effective 2026) requires restaurants to identify, on or in connection with each menu item, any of the nine major food allergens used as an ingredient. On our menu page, every dish carries tags for the allergens it contains:

  • Milk
  • Eggs
  • Fish
  • Shellfish
  • Tree Nuts
  • Peanuts
  • Wheat
  • Soy
  • Sesame

We also note oats and sulfites where relevant. Our open kitchen handles wheat, eggs, dairy, and tree nuts; strict cross-contact avoidance isn't possible. For a severe allergy, tell your server and we'll do everything we reasonably can — including cooking your dish on a clean surface or substituting an ingredient.
