Had a burger and fries. The waiter said fries could be done in a separate fryer. Did not get sick. Decent food!

Food is tasty but risk of contamination is high! They offer GF pasta but when questioned they cook the pasta in the same water as the regular. French fries are from a dedicated fryer from what the waiter told me.

I told the waitress that I had celiacs and I ordered a salad with no dressing. Chopped factory salad. I think there may have been some sort of wonton in my salad that was not supposed to be in it because I got violently ill. Will never go back!!!

Fantastic steak Diane and Godiva cheesecake! And my waitress was lovely! But the table next to me had a nasty waitress.

Ordered two small plates- chips and guacamole and sweet corn tamale cakes- as they were listed "gluten free upon request" on the menu. The plates were NOT gluten free. Got severely ill and contacted Cheesecake Factory about their lack of training on food allergies. Haven't heard back yet.

I would give it less if I could. My mom's meal came a half hour before mine did and I only got pasta!!! When I finally got my food, it tasted good but I found remnants of regular pasta at the bottom. Sure enough, I felt sick an hour later. Would not recommend. Terrible service and got sick from it.

My dad called the manager and gave us a gift card but it is not worth the risk.

Surprisingly large gluten-free menu including gluten-free kid meals that didn't break the bank. I was pleasantly surprised, and my gluten-intolerant kid loved being able to eat out.

Amazing GF burgers, fries, pasta and cheesecake. Completely seperate menu for Gluten Allergy with a large selection for any meal including breakfast. I have a severe allergy to Gluten and have never had any problems eating here, highly recommended for those looking for delicious GF food and a lot of options.

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. :(
