Allergen Breakdown

Dairy-Free

Likely OK

Cooked in duck fat, not butter.

Gluten-Free

Check with staff

The confit itself is flour-free, but standard accompaniments carry risk: potatoes are often cooked in shared fryers or duck fat also used for floured items, and confit served over cassoulet may include a breadcrumb topping. Confirm the sides.

Peanut-Free

Likely OK

Peanuts are not used.

Tree Nut-Free

Likely OK

Tree nuts are not used.

Shellfish-Free

Likely OK

No shellfish ingredients.

Egg-Free

Likely OK

No eggs are used.

Fish-Free

Likely OK

No fish ingredients.

Soy-Free

Likely OK

Soy is not used.

Sesame-Free

Likely OK

Sesame is not used.

Vegetarian

Likely contains restriction

Made of duck meat.

Key risk: The duck itself is very safe for dairy and gluten allergies because it is cooked and preserved entirely in duck fat rather than butter. The risk sits in the accompaniments: potatoes from shared fryers (gluten cross-contact), cassoulet breadcrumb toppings, and salad vinaigrettes containing mustard.
