J's Corner Restaurant & Lounge

Not a great experience. The menu said they have gluten free buns but that’s it. I asked for a sandwich, they offered fries but they come from a shared fryer, i asked for a side salad instead. My sandwich came out without bread, so pretty much a salad next to my side salad. When I asked the waitress her response was ‘no bread’, my friend mentioned that the menu stated they had GF buns so the waitress went out back to ask and came back to tell us they were going to toast one for me now. It didn’t come out until our entire table had already finished eating. Kind of embarrassing to be the center of attention in this manner and then to also just sit there with half a plate and not eating. Not my idea of a fun night out.

I have celiac and I am extremely sensitive. It’s been 2 days and I feel fine. No symptoms or reactions. The waitress and cook were very educated on the severity of the gluten allergy. The menu isn’t marked, but it did say on their menu to mention any food allergies or precautions. They confirmed they have ONLY A GLUTEN FREE DEDICATED FRYER. Yay! They also had delicious large GF rolls, delicious. It’s nice being able to eat a sandwich and fries like a normal person ordering out. I ordered the grilled haddock with coleslaw and the fresh cut fries. I was very satisfied.

There are GF options and the seafood stew was excellent! But not a celiac friendly place

I called ahead to see about cross contamination. Person on the phone said not only do they take precautions, they had a dedicated fryer for the French fries. We went and ordered and I verified, waitress said when they are busy they cook other gluten containing items in the same fryer. Totally disappointed.

steak, seafood, baked potato, very accommodating, delicious
