Be careful eating here if you have celiac. “Gluten fee available” option on the menu doesn’t mean what it should mean. For example, the gluten free French fries are not GF, since they are fried in the same fryer as everything else, including food breaded with wheat flour. Best to ask lots of questions

Several gluten friendly options on the menu but I became very sick after eating gluten free choices that were offered and then prepared... even after specifically telling our waitress I have celiac and can't be exposed to it. Obviously the kitchen and staff is not knowledgeable on preparation and keeping cross contamination from happening. Will NOT be returning!!!

I always note my allergy and have never had a problem here (I also had good waiters). In my opinion, for a chain restaurant they have pretty good options. Pretty good pasta and the herb chicken is pretty good too. They even have a cheesecake, which is better than no cheesecake at all.

My advice, stick with salads and burgers. There were plenty of other GF options on the menu. My son had a burger with gluten free bun, he said it was good and inhaled it. My mom had the grilled salmon with asparagus and potatos, which looked delicious. She was confused why the herb crusted salmon in one area of the menu was GF Upon Request but not listed that way in another area, and did not get a very clear answer from the waiter. There were GF options listed on the kids' menu, which I have not seen other places. Good service as well. I had the shepherd's pie, which I did not want, but I had a hard time deciding. Many choices, nothing inspired me. The Shepherd's pie was good but pretty salty and oily. I would not order that again. Only one cheesecake is available GF, we did not try it. I think this place, which such an expansive menue, could do a lot better.

awesome!!! has a specific gluten free menu, that has several pages, including dessert. inflormed my waitress of the gluten, they were actually out of my first option, so the manager came out and personally apologized when he saw I was on a gluten restriction, second choice was stil amazing, and the waitress even knew which desserts were gluten free when she asked if we wanted any. overall whole experience was great, and staff knew when I ordered anything gluten free. def recommend!!!

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. :(
