Overall a nice selection of gf options, but try to go at a slower time of day. As always, use your judgement if you're a sensitive celiac.

When I called ahead, they told me they could accommodate me best during slower times. Four stars for uncertainty since they have a small kitchen and thus can't make any guarantees, but I personally didn't have any trouble. They don't put anything with gluten on the grill, so I felt good about getting the grilled chicken souvlaki platter (the menu mentions grilled pita, but I was told that it's grilled in a separate skillet). It was delicious, and they gave me plenty of food, enough to have another meal the next day. I also tried the lentil soup which was naturally gf (although I'm aware that lentils can potentially have cross contamination in the growing and harvesting process, so you might want to avoid it if you're really sensitive). They asked me if I wanted gf toast instead of pita, but I remembered other reviewers saying they don't have a separate toaster so I steered clear. Nice to know they offer it, though. The only problem I had was from eating too much! The second time I went here I ordered the grilled salmon and shrimp combo, with mashed potatoes instead of the rice that usually comes with it, also delicious!
