I usually just get the grilled chicken or burger patty with no bun but tried the gluten free roll and it's so soft and not all crumbly.

One guy was great and switched gloves but I noticed as my daughters burger was cooking he placed another burger on a bun and then touched her burger! He had no clue. Then the guy said, “we’re familiar, we do this all the time!” Ugh. They also didn’t have a gluten free bun at this location in Toms River nj

I went there three days ago with my five-year-old daughter who has celiac. They brought out to cheeseburgers in a row saying they were gluten-free and when I asked him to doublecheck they said whoops nope that wasn't gluten-free OK this one is… OK note this one definitely is… Finally they brought one out that they absolutely assured he was gluten-free,by this point my daughter was absolutely starving so I let her eat it. What a mistake. We're now 72 hours later and she is still a complete mess. Crying irritable headaches sleeplessness extremely itchy from head to toe. She's having a gluten reaction like she hasn't had in years I would never eat there again with her never

I eat here every Friday with my son! It's so nice to be able to get a cheeseburger or chicken sandwich like a normal person! They're always very accommodating and it's so clean. Oh and their music playlists rock too!

This was my best experience so far since I was diagnosed with celiac disease. There's a woman named Janelle at the ordering station, she was so helpful and sweet! At the Toms River location they have a separate fryer for the fries and they have an option that's available to clean the kitchen so there's no cross contamination!! I was so excited and the meal was delicious plus no embarrassment like at other places I've eaten at previously. :)

Absolutely delicious every single time!! They offer gluten free buns for an additional $2. I believe the bun is Udi’s brand. It’s so delicious and fluffy! I was told that the french fries are fried in a dedicated fryer. They also noted “***Gluten allergy” on my order!!

I’ve never gotten sick from eating here and it’s one of my favorite places to get gf burgers and fries!🍔

You can get any burger from the menu with a gluten free bun😎

They do have a dedicated fryer but then said their fries have a coating on them and they aren’t gluten free. The burger was delicious, even with no side of fries.

Although this place is not dedicated gluten-free, they’ve done a great job, making me feel really comfortable eating here. They have two people on staff with celiac disease who have done a great job training everyone about cross-contamination. They even have a dedicated frier for French fries!
