My safest go to is the Gluten Free Cesar Salad. I have gotten sick from other gf menu items due to cross contamination.

My girlfriend has celiacs and ordered the gluten free pasta and got horrendously sick about an hour later. No indication that anything was wrong. If it was pure gluten it would have hit her in 20 min so it had to be cross contamination. Do not put yourself at risk!!!

I got glutened. I have eaten here many times in the past and while the service is always terrible the gf food is usually safe. As a Celiac I always make sure to tell them of my condition and order gf items w/o substitutions. I recently had an early dinner (4pm) so it is not like they were busy, I was assured the pasta was gf only to get violently ill. I was very disappointed since they do have a decent selection but I can't go back bc I can't trust that the gf food is safe.

Long time fans of this chain, but celiac kept us away UNTIL NOW, discovered deep and outstanding and newly rolled out gluten free menu at Hackensack NJ location. Staff surprisingly knowledgable and bun used for delicious turkey burger was outstanding. We were so impressed that we insisted on thanking the manager and he surprised us with a take home sampling of their GF pasta. A great and unexpected surprise, we'll surely go back for more.

Was not bad but experience varies by server. We came twice as staying nearby... only on the 2nd visit did our server correct the misinformation from the first server.

There is NO dedicated fryer... it is shared oil. A lot of the staff are unclear of the difference

Tried to order a gluten free four cheese pasta for my Celiac daughter. When asked if they cook the pasta in separate water and use separate utensils, they said unfortunately they cook it in the same water as gluten pasta and they can’t use separate water. :(
