Sidewinders American Grill

So this was my safe place for awhile and my partner and I would go here about once a week. I only ordered burgers and we had a friend working in the kitchen so I believe they may have taken extra care due to that.

I was pretty familiar with their buns and one time, they sent out a non GF bun and I sent it back. I’m positive they just took the burger off the gluten bun and put it on a GF bun and I had a reaction. It was a bummer but most of the time they are pretty safe and take care. I do not recommend going when it is busy, as that was the case with the time I had a reaction

I ordered a hamburger tonight. I asked the server if they are good about cross contamination. She told they are good about it. I had a gluten reaction. The food tasted great, but I'd rather not be sick.

I ate here a few years ago and got “glutened” pretty bad. I saw since then there has been a couple of positive reviews so when we were invited there today I thought I would give it another try. The waitress was super amazing, was very knowledgeable about gluten free and Celiacs disease. However, when I got my food there was a dinner roll on my plate, obviously not gluten free. I immediately took it off and the broccoli it was touching, I ate my steak, hoping it was far enough away. I didn’t want to send it back because it was a very large table and the waitress tried so hard, didn’t want to make a scene. Here I am at 11pm super sick because I got “glutened”. I don’t recommend going here if you have celiacs.

They have gluten free options but they are not that many... DON'T have their fries. They are beer battered fries.

Many locals say this is the best GF pizza in town. Meh. It’s spongy like the texture of a breadstick. I had the BBQ chicken with “homemade” BBQ sauce and it seemed safe.

Not the best GF pizza I’ve had, but not bad.

My son with celiac had a great burger with a GF bun. The rest of my family really enjoyed the food as well.

When I asked about a gluten free menu the waiter said they didn’t have one but that he was familiar and asked if I was celiac. He knew about it and said what was available and not (like shared fryer) and very knowledgeable. Also, when the server delivered he told me that the kitchen had cleaned the work space and changed gloves...I did not ask them to. They were awesome!
