Leo's Grill & Malt Shop

Asked for their gluten free menu and ordered the veggie burger from it. I started feeling sick after leaving the restaurant and double checked the veggie burger (Gardenburger) ingredients online- it contains gluten! I called and asked them to check the ingredients. I could hear the manager telling the server, "if it's on the gluten free menu it's gluten free." I asked them to double check and the manager got on the phone. When he looked up the ingredients, he told me "looks like there is a little bit of wheat in there. Not sure what kind of wheat." I explained to him how celiac disease works and that any amount of wheat means that item should not be on their "gluten free menu." He apologized. I won't return. Also The kettle chips that come with meals are all friend in-house with gluten items. Menu didn't list this.

They provide what looks like a great GF menu, until you start asking questions. Shared fryer means the fries and kettle chips aren’t really GF. They also list shakes that have malt in them on the GF menu and even the waitress admitted they’re not safe. When questioned why it’s on the GF menu then, she had no response. Frustrating!

Celiac friendly?

No

The gluten free menu is a work in progress still, and they just do normal entree items on gluten free bread. They advertise things on the gluten free menu that are not gluten free, specifically things that are fried. They do not have a dedicated gluten free fryer. I didn't get sick, but I won't eat there again.

They offer Gluten free bread for there burgers and sandwiches .
