Chuck Lager America's Tavern

chicken tacos were okay and burger didn't have a lot of flavor. A pet peeve of mine is restaurants misleading you about their food. The sweet potato fries were labeled as gluten free. Well, if you want to eat them raw they are gluten free. As we actually did not want to eat raw potato, and wanted the fries cooked, they get dumped into a common fryer with flour items and so are then NOT gluten free. We tried this restaurant based on the wide variety of items labeled gluten free in their menu. Disappointing that they mislead people with food allergies.

I got the Ahi Poke Bowl and it was good, you have to ask to remove the soy sauce and teriyaki sauce. Waiting staff was knowledgeable and went to ask chefs about gluten free sauces when they weren’t sure. Good amount of GF options- tacos, burgers (they have GF buns), salads, etc. Printed menu does not show which are gf but online menu does and staff knows which options are.

Went with my family and everyone loved their food. My mom and I don’t eat gluten or dairy. The menu online was marked with the no wheat symbol. (The printed menus didn’t indicate so we looked online.) My mom had the shrimp salad and I had the smoked chicken tacos with blue corn tortillas and no cheese. Both we tasty! I also tried the regular and sweet potato fries. Both were delicious and worth eating (from the fried perspective). I’m gluten sensitive so we’ll see how I feel tomorrow. It’s hard for our crew to find places where everyone likes the menu and the food and we agreed we’ll go back!
