Asked for the GF menu and the hostess had no clue what I was asking! She finally asked another hostess who told her and grabbed the menus. Unlike another reviewer, I thought the menu wasn't very user friendly. The description said no sidecar but then there is a list of them on the back. The waitress was nice but said in all her time there no one has ever ordered off the GF menu so she was of no help. She did go ask but didn't come back with any answers. Not sure where the gap is, between corporate and the manager or the manager to the staff. Either way, there is no more confidence in a GF menu and unknowledgeable staff and going to a random place and praying they have GF items! Wings and fries are cooked in same fryer. My son and I were sick that evening whereas my daughter was ok until the next day. The wings were average and the fries were good but we'd prefer to head back to Buffalo Wild Wings where there is no cross contamination AND they are knowledgeable!

Wings and Fries are not done in a dedicated fryer. All menu items such are split between gluten free and not cross contaminated.

Menu is informative, family had zero desire to eat at a wing restaurant without gluten free wings, so we left.

Staff is very friendly and was understanding of our situation.

They have a separate dedicated fryer for gf wings! The server will go over which sauces to avoid (mainly ones with soy sauce). They can also do gf fries in that fryer.

We stopped on a whim while traveling, after reading reviews here. I had a grilled chicken sandwich on a gf roll and gf french fries. It was very good. The bun did not fall apart like most gf buns! I have Celiac and was fine afterward. Service was excellent! The decor is interesting! A fun stop for sure.

I called, and they weren't sure about the gluten free quality of the food. My partner ordered the Jumbo Wings, which should be gluten free according to their website, and got a bad reaction.
