EDIT: Gave this place another try on 4/8/23 for a drink and a snack. Bartender insisted gluten “burns off” on the grill so we didn’t need to worry about cross contact. This is so wrong and dangerous!
95% sure I got glutened here. While the menu is marked GF, they included chicken with a bread sauce and fries made in a shared fryer. This should have been a red flag, but I selected what I thought were “safe” options and called the staff to discuss. Will not return as they clearly don’t understand the severity of celiac. Food was good though and would probably be fine for someone with a non-allergy preference.

Members of my family who are celiac and need to eat gluten free were disappointed with the false advertising of gluten free items on the menu. Items are listed as gluten free, but we’re informed by the waiter that they really aren’t! If they go in the fryer they aren’t GF!! FALSE ADVERTISING! I am not celiac, but this really fires me up!

Horrible. I was so excited to get a GF meal. Their menu is clearly labeled. However, once I got there I asked about the GF labeled options they literally said “those items (most of the gf food offered) are GF but fried in oil where there is gluten.” I explained that this wasn’t gluten free, told them I’m celiac blah blah. They responded “oh our customers don’t mind the gf food being cooked with gluten items. It was bizarre!
