Current dietary-badge support: Pizza Twist's current Carteret ordering menu has dedicated Gluten Free and Plant-Based sections, supporting both GF and DF pathways. Lab X's current menu explicitly marks dairy-free items. Punjabi Dhaba currently advertises vegan dishes, and BOBA & BITES is currently listed with vegan options; those support dairy-free pathways but still require direct cross-contact confirmation.
