Dedicated fryers, lettuce wrap burgers, and never done me wrong!
You may want to ask for a plastic bag or bring one because there's a lot of moisture from the lettuce that breaks down the paper bag

They have great options for bunless burger in a bowl or in a lettuce wrap! The fries are also gluten free and they switched gloves to prepare the meal.

Very accomodating. Get the burgers in a bowl and let them knownits due to allergy and they will change gloves. Fries are safe as they are the only thing fried in the oil. Staff is always great

You can get any burger "in a bowl" or wrapped in lettuce and their fries are safe since only fries are cooked in the oil. My daughter has Celiac and was good after her meal here.
Review
I ordered a hamburger in a bowl with lettuce and ketchup. Ketchup came on the side. I also had their regular fries. Didn't get sick. Not sure if celiac friendly.

Order taker asks about allergy and informs cook staff. I like that I can see them following the protocols (change gloves, clean grill, etc). Dedicated french-fry fryer. Good food.

Refused to even serve me they said they can’t prevent any cross contamination even though the only gluten containing item in this location is the buns. Wouldn’t change gloves or utensils or anything just told me no.

Review
April 26, 2014. These guys handle the 'Allergy burger' very well. Ask for it by that name, they'll know how to treat your food prep. They have a dedicated frier and make a mean lettuce wrapped burger. I always order extra lettuce and they don't fall apart. I never have an issue with cross-contamination at this chain.

They were so careful when preparing my burger and french fries. They do not have gluten free buns. The fries are safe to eat. I order a burger without a bun and bring in my own bun.
