Ordered from here several times - the wings and the chicken tenders with fries and never had an issue!

Hey, I am largely asymptomatic so I wouldn't know if I was cross-contaminated, but I was eating here for a while until I looked into their menu and inquired about their fryers. If you ask the location they'll tell you that they cook their fries in the same frier as their churros and the vegan tenders (that have gluten in them) in the same frier as the other tenders.

After hearing this I can't say that this place is gluten-free, which sucks because it was the only place you can get good "gluten-free" chicken tenders.

Delicious GF chicken. The original flavor & truffle flavor are GF & are fried in a dedicated fryer. I preferred the regular fried chicken over the truffle flavor. I’m sensitive & had no reaction. We’ll be back!

We read the reviews and were very hopeful. We stopped in and the guy at the counter said that they are gluten friendly but not gluten free. He showed us the laminated page for employees which literally says what is safe for people with Celiac Disease, which I thought was cool but it was so hard to understand that I can't believe workers understand it. For sure the only thing that is POSSIBLY safe is the chicken which is supposed to be in a dedicated fryer. Fries and other things are fried in a cross contaminated fryer and not Celiac safe. In the end, our hopes were dashed and we left hungry. :(

All right here about a week ago. ALL of their fried chicken and their fries are gluten-free. Coming from a celiac who hasn’t had “real” fried chicken in years, it was so satisfying to go here, have some bomb-ass food and not get sick

I ordered the gluten-free chicken tenders and french fries and I was gluten. I asked the employee about cross contamination and he said I would be fine! I called when my symptoms started and they said the French fries are NO longer gluten free….

Lots of gf options - chicken strips and fries are delicious. It’s one of our go-to options for take out.

Amending my review because of some mixed messaging I just discovered. The GF on their menus and allergy list only means (the unhelpfully vague term) "gluten friendly" despite staff refering to it "gluten free"... Conversely, my server had also told me the fries contain 5% gluten... Head office now tells me they meant they contain 5 parts per millions in regular testing, well below the standard to be considered gluten free (20ppm), so they should be safe for celiacs after all. So staff not as knowledgeable as I first thought... Confusing!Proceed with caution! 🥴

My original review: Great variety of GF chicken options marked on menu - BUT despite the fries being marked GF on menu and allergy info, they are actually a cross contamination risk because they are fried in same fryer as gluten-containing churros. Always an annoyance that they mark such things as GF!! But helpful and knowledgeable staff... Like, surprisingly knowledgeable for a fast food chain.

My absolute favorite chicken ever!!! And the breading is gluten free flour. It satisfies my chicken tender craving every time. Watch out for the Thai sauce as it has gluten.

This place is fantastic. Their chicken tenders are fried in a dedicated fryer and all their sauces are gluten-free. They fry their French fries in a shared fryer with churros. They regularly test the oil and say it’s at 4ppm gluten (the fda requirements for food you buy labeled gf is 20ppm so technically this could be safer than foods you regularly eat weird enough) but I ordered slaw just to be safe and because the tenders are huge. Get the Nashville hot ones.
