Review of The Capital Burger

Mixed feelings about this place. I’m pescatarian and Celiac. Called ahead to ask if vegetarian patty was gluten free and was told yes. But when we talked to waitress, she said no, definitely not. Fries are fried separately (so technically gluten free) but next to calamari so practically, cross contamination risk is higher.

They were able to make a fish sandwich when I asked by putting the salmon on a bun and with a side salad. But the salad was dry because I guess most of the dressings have gluten as well. Finally found one oil option with garlic I believe that was pretty good.

We were going to the restaurant with a group (as I realize a burger place probably shouldn’t be my first choice if I don’t eat burgers : ) and most others enjoyed their food but proceed with caution if you’re not looking for just a burger and dry salad. Limited alternatives.
