Came here for brunch but the server explained that they don’t take any precautions to prevent cross contamination (utensils, prep space, griddle and fryers). Wanted to try the GF pancakes but they are prepared on the same space as regular pancakes so they are not gluten free.

I wasn't in the mood to interrogate the server about all the kitchen's procedures to avoid cross-contact, so I just went with something listed GF that wouldn't need any substitutions: salmon on rice with veggies. It was pretty good, and I didn't have any reaction after.

Lots of options that are gf AND dairy free. some that are gf and VEGAN, which is what I am. That is VERY hard to find. Everything is clearly labeled on the menu, too, so you don't have to rely on asking an inexperienced waiter a million questions. And the food is consistently good. If you have multiple sensitivities, this is the best place around, hands down!!

Good food, decent options, but staff didn't seem to get the cross contamination piece of things. brought me my GF meal with a biscuit on the plate ..had them remake it, but my confidence is low that I didn't get gluten in my meal.

I had a burger with fries. As you all know everyone’s allergies are different. The manager did note that there was a chance of cross contamination with the fries. Which is a standard warning everywhere. I’m usually able to eat fries at all of the fast food restaurants, never had a problem. However, I had a severe allergic reaction from their food. I’m guessing it was the fries. So, if you’re like me and you like a burger with your FRIES (for me the fries are the best part), you’ll want to skip this place. Also, the gluten free bun is tough and has a weird texture. On a positive note, the staff were all very friendly. I had great service.

Was uncertain from the hostess who sat us "we have GF marked on the menu" is better than nothing but hardly inspiring.

However once we were seated the waitress was amazing. She went over the specifics of preparation (down to which spaces were used), knew the crab cake had filler off the top of her head, and so on.

Food was great.

Food is decent nothing special but have been there more than once and have never gotten sick from gf pasta or breakfast items. I did take extra precautions to avoid items that could be cross contaminated which required asking the server questions (like hash browns) and didn’t order any gf bread based items.
