Cactus Club Cafe

They say they’re gluten friendly and have a separate fryer. Unfortunately I have been here enough times to know that they give me a mild reaction pretty much every time I go. No shade towards the restaurant. Just don’t go if you have anything more than a sensitivity.

I ordered the "gluten smart" calamari bravas and crunchy tofu bowl. Both were delicious! I did confirm after my food was brought that it's gluten free and they reminded me that there is cross contamination in the fryer but the menu items are made without gluten. The waitstaff seemed knowledgeable. Service was a bit slow and prices were a bit high, but a great option for those with sensitivity or intolerance. Their menu had an entire "gluten smart" section, which I always appreciate. No dedicated kids menu and when I asked the server suggested a slider which I thought would work, but it came out as one of three. My one-year-old ate half of one and we took the other two and a half home.

Very comfortable experience with knowledgeable staff. They will even bake your fries to avoid cross contamination. My only complaint is that it’s pricey for the portion sizes.

I've eaten here multiple times and never had a reaction. They have a dedicated gf fryer as well as a separate prep area. Every server I've had has been very knowledgeable about celiacs and food safety. Great food, highly recommend.
