Residual unknowns — carried forward, not resolved

  1. Dietary handling requires direct confirmation

    Causa says it can accommodate most dietary restrictions with substitutions, including vegetarian and pescatarian diets, but cannot accommodate celiac or allium allergies; it asks guests to contact the restaurant before booking with questions.

    → Confirm before inviting anyone with a restriction.

  2. Access honesty marker: route unstated

    Not stated on the restaurant's own pages — the physical-access route and restroom detail were not published. Confirm live before you commit.

    → Carry into the confirmation call if it bears on your night.

  4. Parking and arrival logistics

    → Carry into the confirmation call if it bears on your night.

  5. Parking and transit unstated

    → Low stakes here; check a map before you leave.
