Staff was super friendly and very knowledgable about what was Celiac Safe. Dedicated fryer, gluten free buns, gluten free bread. Mark the order as gluten allergy when sending to kitchen. There were also vegetarian options which was great for us.

We just moved to the area and have been smelling like yummy scents everyday, and the food itself did not disappoint! The house chips and dip were SO GOOD with a nice seasoning of peppercorn and fresh out of the dedicated gluten free fryer. The waitress was highly knowledgeable on cross contamination as well as the best way to eat the BLT (GF bun holds up better than the bread) I ordered. I look forward to returning to Red Cow!

Not Celiac safe, I got very sick. I had a burger, fries, lemonade, and a vanilla milkshake. I was told they use a separate fryer, and confirmed with the waitress that I needed everything gluten free for an “allergy” (vs a preference).

The “gf” food tasted good, but unfortunately I’ll never return to try it again after this experience.

Gluten free meals were brought out separately from the gluten-eaters meals and a separate fryer is used.

They've recently added the option to flag an allergy on take out orders. They take allergies seriously and have a dedicated fryer for fries, tots, and GF wings.

I eat here almost weekly with a lot of options I feel safe with which are delicious and fast. The one time a mistake was made (flatbread crackers were mistakenly included on my salad), the manager came out to speak with me and was mortified at the mistake. They fixed it quickly and provided additional training to the server. This was one mistake out of dozens of trips.

First time at this establishment. We went to the South Minneapolis, 50th and France location. Service was excellent. I didn't notice that the menu had GF markings for individual dishes but was told by our server that certain dishes could be made gluten free. Allie was very helpful in this regard as my guest also had other dietary restrictions due to allergies. The burger was good ( could have been seasoned a bit more) and I was thrilled to finally have french fries. It's been years. I haven't experienced any discomfort from even the mildest of cross contamination.

Have eaten here lots of times and have never gotten sick. I did have one time when my burger was brought out on a regular bun, but I quickly noticed it and the kitchen made me a new one. Make sure you speak to a manager if it’s your first time here, but honestly, I’ve eaten here at least 20 times and never had an issue. And they have a dedicated fryer and gluten free boneless wings? I’m in.

Tasty food, but it made me sick. I asked about the food I was ordering, was told it’s gluten free, informed the server I am allergic and still went home sick.

They gave me a normal bun twice. The first time I called back and they were really nice. It's just sad that they did it again. I really like their food, but it has now been 2 out of the 5 times I have ordered from them. And it's just embarrassing for me to go back tell them again.

First want to clarify that the restaurant is nice, food is great and is a nice place IF you don’t have any allergies or dietary requirements. We took our family including our daughter who is a diagnosed celiac and the restaurant (although they said they could) was not able to deliver a safe experience or meal for her. Shortly after finishing her meal she had discomfort, I double checked with our waiter to verify AGAIN that everything was handled correctly and was re-assured it was ok. She is now very sick and profuse vomiting and other things I won’t go into. Long story short, fine place if you don’t have dietary requirements otherwise STAY AWAY!!! My 6 year old is now terrified of restaurants and has made it clear she never wants to eat out again, tough moment for a little kid.

Great burgers! I love being able to have fries and a bun with my burger. Be sure to not use the housemade ketchup. Great place. I've eaten here many times and have never gotten sick.

Be careful if you've never been before our first experience was horrible. We gave them another try and they were awesome. Amazing chips and dips. Boneless wings, burgers

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Fabulous experience! There is SO much on the menu that is gluten free, and they have a dedicated fryer! We spoke with a manager and he said they take gluten free items and celiac disease very seriously. He mentioned they have staff members with celiac disease that have helped educate on celiac and the precautions that need to be taken. I had boneless buffalo wings for the first time in years!! SO good and I’d highly recommend!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I eat here a lot because I've always had great luck here, but just had a particularly outstanding service experience. My family ordered takeout from here tonight and the food came home with my "allergy" listed on the ticket, but the gf bread looked different than usual. We also received something in our bag that we hadn't ordered, so my radar was already up that they might be having an "off" night. I was going to just trust it and eat my food, hoping they were right, but I decided to double check. I called and talked to the front of house manager. It was 6:15pm - middle of dinner rush - and they were clearly swamped. But he took a full 10 minutes on the phone with me including double checking with the chef and all kinds of other details about the order to finally be able to fully assure me that I did indeed receive the gluten free (celiac safe) version of what I ordered. Many restaurants would've treated me much differently, especially knowing that they were right about what they received. I was blown away about how kind and respectful this manager was.

They have a separate fryer and their menu is labeled with GF for items they can make gluten free. My daughter loved the gluten free bun!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

THIS PLACE IS NOT GF FRIENDLY. While they have gluten free items, they have continued to make mistakes, even when I ask the wait staff to notify them that it's an allergy. After 4 chances, I am officially done. I have gotten, and eaten, burgers with a normal bun. I have ordered wings, and after eating, am notified that they contain soy sauce.

Celiac friendly?

No

Went for lunch on a Monday at 2pm. Had the turkey burger. Delicious! Just right amount of food, not too heavy. I’m celiac and super sensitive and all was fine. Waitress was helpful and friendly, checked about the grills. Non-gf hubby enjoyed his burger in gf bread.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was so knowledgeable. They even let us know that their sweet potato fries, while GF, they come from a distributor. Thus, they wanted us aware in case of cross contamination. We were so grateful for the attention to details. Highly recommend the bison burger!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

my food came out wrong but the manager made everything right and he was so nice about everything.

I had a very helpful server. They don't have a dedicated toaster, so my GF bread wasn't toasted. My food was great, no reaction.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Lots of gluten free options and staff was knowledgeable about cross contamination. Lots of cider options and sometimes gluten free beer options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered pulled pork sandwich with gluten free bun and server said she would make sure to let kitchen know that it needed to be gluten free. Order came out on a regular bun. The person suggested I keep the salad (touching the bun) and he would bring a new sandwich. I’ve lost my trust in red cow’s understanding of gluten free preparation. Celiac’s should stay away.

Delicious burger, with glutenberg beer. Very celiac friendly. (Apparently, to make the poutine GF it would have to be without cheese, which is sad, but not the end of the world.)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Best GF burger I've had in a long time! They have a dedicated fryer! I will definitely be going back!

OMG best gf meal I've had in a while! Root beer pulled pork on gf bun, fresh fruit, chicken wings and the best gf beer!

So good! Good service. Dedicated fryer! Definitely going back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Visited for a late lunch/early dinner, so it wasn’t busy. All items on regular menu that can be made GF are marked as so. Server was very attentive and they have a dedicated fryer for their fries. I got the GF grilled cheese and tomato soup, and a side of fries and didn’t get sick at all! I will definitely be going back.

The staff was awesome. Separate fryers for chips, fries and tots. GF buns at no extra cost. Menu clearly labeled

I have two kids with celiac and this was their first experience to the restaurant chain. They were out of the gluten free boneless chicken wings which was a huge disappointment to my son who was hungry and between basketball games at a tournament. He ordered a grilled cheese and the gluten free bread was super dry. I had a grilled chicken on gluten free bread that was great. The gluten free fries were great. My celiac kids loved their strawberry milkshakes. So there were pros and cons. Hopefully we can try it again and they have the wings.
