Important Update: Be sure to tell your server if it's a gluten allergy. There are not a lot of options really but the steak is decent, gf pizza. If the server seems confused in any way when you say the word gluten then ask for the manager.

I have eaten here multiple times and have not gotten sick. Gluten free pizookie is amazing, I have had burgers with gluten free vun, gluten free pizzas and steaks. Prime rib is not gluten free because of the rub apparently. But the speaks are good. Fries I have been told are not in separate fryer so celiac don't get fries. Ciders are ok have your typical choices. We come here a lot because I don't have a lot of safe options in town so if you are celiac you should be ok. Most servers are knowledgeable and the manager is really nice.

Overall not impressed. The reviews were really good, but I was underwhelmed. The wait was long, the soda machine had no carbonation, and I got the wrong kind of bowl. Would not go back unless there was nothing else.

Ate here after seeing all of the glowing reviews. . . and boy am I paying for it. Started having symptoms almost immediately after eating. Do not eat here if you have Celiac Disease.

Best meal I have had since my diagnosis. The bun on my turkey burger seemed so real...not grainy or firm. I even double checked that it was gluten free. Several gluten free salad dressing choices and the waiter even asked several people until he had a definite confirmation of gluten free. They have a gluten free menu including desert so you don't have to search out and guess what is available.

But it does specifically make that warning that...we do our best to keep it clean for gluten intolerance but no guarantee as there is no designated cooking space or fryer. It's a risk.

I ordered the Moroccan chicken, had a slice of my husband’s GF pizza and some of the chocolate chip pizookie with vanilla ice cream. I’m very sensitive to eating out so this was a risky one. It turned out delicious and I didn’t get sick.

They had a really good crust and the pizza was super tasty. It was a bit pricey, though. Over $16 for an eight inch pizza.

They do not have gluten free buns and the lettuce wrap I received was a bunch of cut up lettuce so it was impossible to hold. The waitress tried to tell me I'd be fine with the fries even though there is no dedicated fryer. I didn't appreciate her acting like she knew my level of sensitivity better than I do. Very presumptuous.

They have a special GF menu with lots of options. My son had the GF BQ pizza and liked it a lot. He’s very sensitive and didn’t have any issues. If you have room the GF pizza cookie w ice cream is crazy good!! I used open table to make my reservation.
