Gluten-Free at Smiling Moose Deli

Great sandwiches and burgers. Celiac precautions were well known and my husband says the sandwich was one of the best he had. Daughter did not love the hotdog but the gluten free burger was perfect. Super nice staff and knowledgeable.

Do not eat here- every time I have eaten here, I’ve gotten sick. They have a GF bread that tastes really good, but there must be cross contamination in the kitchen.

Their online menu sometimes lists the GF bread as an option for a pricey $3 upcharge.

Online menu and store menus do not list ingredients or GF options. Save yourself a lot of pain and eat somewhere else!

The staff was a bit short and messed up the toppings on every order but the sandwiches were amazing. Neither of us had any reaction and can’t wait to go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff not familiar with celiac

I had the Greek salad and the Enchilada soup, both GF and delicious and I didn’t get sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Would not recommend this place if you have celiac. Order a salad and talked to them about the cross contamination. When the gal was making my Salad she was also doing others at the same time which had wheat. So ask to remake mi e which they did but again with cross contamination. So ask for money back. Manager was very rude argue with us Finally give money back and total us to leave. This was my first time in the one in Lakewood and last!!!!

Did not get sick. The staff was knowledgeable with options and cross contamination. Food was served quick and was delicious. I would definitely go there again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I explained to them that I had Celiac Disease and they assured me it would be done separately. I opened my bag and realized oyster crackers were added into my bag (clearly not gluten free) and Nima tested the sandwich and soup. Both came back positive for gluten. So disappointed.

No

Nima tested and came back positive for containing gluten.

Had no idea about gluten free.

Tremendous find; great flavors. Will definitely be back next time we're in San Angelo. Gluten free bread somewhat dry.

Everything was very good but on the expensive side. However the bread didn’t taste like I was missing out on anything like most gf bread. It was just a good meal. I’ll be back.

The bread alone is worth the trip (and is made locally in Longmont), but the entire sandwich was really delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten-free baguette was great consistency and taste! We'll be back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Really good GF Baguette! Never gotten sick here

Terrible service. The manager or owner sat on her phone and watched me wait for service for 5 minutes and as I was leaving without being helped she than yelled for her workers. It was too late

Food was relatively quick. Pretty good. They had a gluten free bun option, though I didn't get one. I would go back again. 3 Celiac individuals in our group, 3 different items ordered, no one got sick. And like I said, was pretty good, too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I eat here every time I am in town. Their gluten free bread is great and worth the up charge. They can make almost anything gf. They even have 5 breakfast options. They do not have chips though which is weird considering all the sand which options.

Very good! I love having a yummy gf sandwich option.

Had the delicious Chicken Enchilada soup and sandwich! Worth the $3 up charge for the gluten free baguette!! Would definitely eat here again.

I asked for a gluten-free menu and placed my order off the gluten-free menu. when the ordered came it w as on regular bread. When I asked of it wa s gluten-free the server said you didn't say to make it gluten-free and proceeded to argue with me. Finally remade sandwich on a stale gf baguette and the filing was not adjusted for size and density of bread.

Gf menu and tasty bread. I would go back

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Baguette was just ok. The bread was quite dry and fell apart. But one good thing was they were very accommodating for gluten free customers and prepared it separately and changed gloves etc

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great GF baguettes Weak coffee - needs work

A GF menu with lots of choices. Ive ate here twice and both sandwiches were good. There GF hoagie is excellent but a bit pricey.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very good gluten free buns! We've never gotten sick and eat here frequently!

I have celiac disease and have eaten here on multiple occasions without a problem. The have a separate GF menu. Their GF buns are delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Plenty of GF options for both soups and sandwiches. Always careful to protect the work space when you mention celiacs or an allergy.

Great service and great gluten free buns! They even brought mine out separate to avoid contamination. I've ate there a few times with no issues.

Enjoyed breakfast here 2 days in a row. The skillet was great. The GF baguette was awesome despite a $3 up charge. I felt safe eating here.

About $13 for a large drink and sandwich. Sand which was really good and almost a foot long. No chips available. Cashier wasn't friendly. Did not get sick!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Smiling Moose is our go-to in Fargo because it's fresh, reasonably priced, and reliably gluten-free.

They have delicious GF sub sandwich style breads and can make just about any of their sandwiches list on the menu into GF.

My daughter has celiac with severe reactions and has eaten here at least a dozen times with no problems. She absolutely loves the bread rolls and is so happy to be able to eat a real sub sandwich! Great staff!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

First time trying gluten free bun - highly recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

very friendly, but the gluten free bread was awful.

great GF bread and sandwiches. the best place for everybody with celiac people that like bread! very friendly staff, make to order, very accommodating always.

because there a so much better bread options out there now for sandwiches I have to rate low. The bread is dry and they never put enough cheese or sauce to chew it down.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great GF sub bread option & rice Krispy treat.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very good GF breakfast sandwich. Always brings my food out with foil to keep separate from others

OUT OF GLUTEN FREE ROLLS.

This is not a restaurant for people with Celiac disease. They were nowhere near careful enough with our gluten free order, and we did get very sick. Don't even risk it here, no matter how bad you want a sandwich.
