Good experience and very knowledgeable staff. The gentleman taking orders made sure the kitchen knew I was a celiac to avoid any chance for cross contamination. Fries and chicken were good and lots of sauce options!

I couldn't see in the kitchen as to their practices. They did not have grilled chicken or gf buns available (sold out), only french fries. Went out of our way to give it a try, pretty disappointing.

I loved the selection of gluten free sauces. They have a seperate frier for gluten free fries. My grilled chicken tenders were good and the seasoned fries were great. My husband really liked their fried chicken tenders. I'd highly recommend stopping here if you're in Gatlinburg.

I'm so sorry to say, the grilled chicken was dry as sawdust. The fries were good. The tables were dirty, though at the moment they weren't busy. I later saw the cook come out and wipe the tables off. The staff was very friendly. I told the manager reluctantly how dry the chicken was. He offered a full refund without me even asking since I was unable to eat the chicken. Maybe it was just an off day.

Given the huge crowds in Gatlinburg in early October this was an unexpected and welcome find. Ate here twice while in Gatlinburg after cycling in the park and building up a huge appetite. The fries are solid and fried separately. The sauces are definitely the highlight. Most are GF. I got a 3 piece grilled tenders the first day and a sandwich (Udi's bun) the second day. As fast food goes this was tasty, cheap, and reasonably safe.

Do NOT eat here. The “gluten free” options made us break out almost immediately. The staff were absolutely not confident about the food and were a little annoyed about us asking. The menu says it has gluten free options… just stay away.

The food itself was dry and tasteless. The gluten free options are an afterthought. 0/10

Yes there are gf options. Grilled chicken, gf buns, fries. Most sauces were gf. However… the quality was mediocre at best. Chicken was quite dry. Fries were decent. The price was kind of high for the foods quality.

unfortunately i was served gluten here after specifically asking for gluten free. i even asked about the fryers. i was assured 3 times during ordering i would be fine. took three bites and knew i would not be fine. chef came out to the table to confirm i was served gluten. i would’ve loved to leave a good review like everyone else but i spent the rest of my day in my cabin and a whole day of my vacation was lost. i understand being busy and just wanting to get through the line but no exaggeration i was lied to by the person i ordered with and it had grave consequences for me. truly and utterly frustrating and disappointing.

We ordered grilled chicken sandwiches and fries which were both so good. Sauces are clearly marked on the wall all but 3 were gluten free. The seating is tough which was the only downside of this place you need to claim your table as soon as someone gets up and most people leave crumbs on the table and seat.

Had a pretty good meal here yesterday. The chicken is fresh - tender and juicy. I had a grilled chicken sandwich on a gluten free bun (Udi’s). But they didn’t toast the bun so it fell apart. I asked for no pickles on my sandwich and got them anyway. Sauces are good - most all are gluten free. I tried the buttermilk ranch and the avocado crema and both were tasty. The fries were great. Crispy and well seasoned. The staff is well versed in gluten free prep and bag everything separately. Aside from not toasting the bun (gluten free 101) and not leaving off the pickles, I left full and happy. No reaction and I felt safe due to precautions the staff takes. Good place to stop if you need gluten free in Gatlinburg.

Andrew took our order, when I said gluten free. He immediately put allergy and gluten free 2x in his computer. He said fries are cooked separately. The person who would cook our food washes their hands and changes gloves. He told us the 3 sauces to avoid. I had the 5 piece grilled chicken combo and loaded fries.

I mentioned gluten free and the cashier went in depth on how the kitchen staff takes precautions. I felt very safe eating there. The fries were good but my grilled chicken tenders were dry and tough. I wasn’t impressed with them at all. I went with four non-gluten free people and they didn’t like the regular breaded chicken tenders either.

Staff was knowledgeable and marked ticket with gluten allergy. All sauces, except 3, are GF. They have a dedicated fryer for fries. I got the 3 grilled tender combo with fries and drink, along with Curry Mayo and Nashville Honey Hot sauces. The Curry Mayo was my favorite of the two delicious sauces. The grilled tenders were small, but tender.

Love the Fries that were prepared in their own dedicated fryer. Lots of choices for dipping sauces the grilled tenders were over cooked but still a solid 4 stars (for flavor and quality) and 5 hearts as I felt very safe eating there (I write my reviews no sooner than 5 hours afterward to make sure no health issues happen AND so I can assess my behavior sometimes my family contributes to contamination)

A good, quick and easy spot if you’re out and about on the Strip. Grilled chicken tenders are GF as well as all but three sauces. Fries in a dedicated fryer. My order was brought out incorrectly at first (fried not grilled chicken) but they fixed it in less than two minutes, fresh fries and all! Suggest the special sauce and Nashville hot honey.

Very good experience here. Gave the cashier my order and informed him of my allergy. He noted it in my order and then physically went to the back and told staff there was an allergy order. I believe they took reasonable precautions and I've had no noticeable side effects.

The grilled chicken tenders are delicious and juicy. Almost all sides are gluten free and those that aren't are labeled.
