Review of Slater's 50/50

I was initially excited because they had a gluten free menu. I had even called ahead to make sure. This restaurant was listed for OC Restaurant week and my friend wanted to take me out. When we got there, our server wasn't very knowledgeable about items for the regular menu and she had to check on a few things for us. We put in our order and my appetizer arrived with chips which was not what was listed on the menu. Because I know most fryers aren't dedicated we asked if the chips were used with other fried foods and we were told no (this person was not our initial server). About an hour after I left I started getting bloated and uncomfortable which is one of my signs I have eaten gluten. I called and spoke with the manager who then had to check with her kitchen manager about the chips. She said the chips have their own designated dryer but did comment that the appetizer I ordered on the gluten free menu was only offered with veggies. She apologized and asked if I was okay. I told her I would be okay, that hopefully I didn't consume enough to be a big problem.

I gave this review a 3 star rating because the gluten free bun with my burger was very tasty and everything did taste delicious. I have read fabulous reviews for other restaurants in this chain, so maybe we just got a new server? Definitely ask to talk to a chef at this location, or a manager if you have celiac disease.

Celiac friendly?
