General Burnsides Chicken Cantina

It’s gluten-free but that’s about all I can say in its favor. Service was slow and indifferent and the food isn’t that good. There are too many other options in this town to reward a place merely for serving gf food, as nice as that is.

Limited selection, but unusual and tasty. He fries the food right there and offers samples. I had the gluten free and vegan fried cauliflower with chili and curry dipping sauces. The fried cauliflower didn’t need the dip, but was even better with it.

This is the best gluten free fried chicken that I’ve ever had. I have a severe gluten intolerance and I wasn’t effected! The batter was perfectly light so it didn’t feel heavy and greasy. The chicken was incredibly moist which was surprising as it is breast meat. The star was the seasonings for me. This chicken was full of flavor through and through. I wish this was in California where I live but I hope to come back once more before I leave Portland!

Really nice take on chicken strips and fries. I like the fire roasted tomato and mustard sauce alot. I didn't get sick and I'm a sensitive celiac

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious chicken, not really batter heavy but delicious (so not really a traditional fried chicken perhaps?) and most importantly totally gf.

DELICIOUS, AMAZING, gluten free fried chicken strips and fresh handmade chips. Fryers are completely gluten free. My husband, who is not gluten free, found this place and LOVES the chicken too.
