I have been here a few times. I think the only safe items are the salads of course, burgers no bun and the street tacos. No gf buns available and chips for dips and nachos and fries are fried in a shared fryer. Neat place. Just not many options.

Ask the server for a GF menu and she'll grab one from the back. Includes both GF as on menu or what they will change from the menu to be GF. Server was great! Bruschetta with tortilla chips was delish! The wedge salad was ahhhhmazing.

I was here for a corporate event and they were super nice about my questions but there’s pretty much nothing safe here. They said I probably couldn’t trust the wings gluten wise. Chips are in a shared fryer. Even the grilled chicken is grilled on the same grill as buns. Salad is probably safe if it didn’t touch anything but comes by default with croutons.

The one in KC has great reviews, but this one - no! Unless you like salad (with no croutons) and one single salad dressing, just keep on walking. Nothing else is safe. BIG NO!

Terrible experience. Do not go here expecting anything to be gluten free. Was told the tacos were gluten free but it came out just a corn tortilla, chicken, and 1 single radish. That’s it!
