BJ's Brewhouse

We ordered takeout from the GF menu and added a notation that I was celiac. I ordered a salad. They were slammed and there was only one person running takeout, so I imagine the back of the house was pretty crazy too. When we got to our room and opened the salad there was a stray noodle in it. Nima sensor read positive. I made no attempt to negotiate with the restaurant or educate any staff.

Extensive Separate GF menu. Waiter told us the staff go through a 1 hr GF training session, and was very enthusiastic to help and learn. It’s our 9yo that’s celiac, so he had a burger on a GF bun. The only issue is that all their fryers are in a line, so none of them are dedicated GF. No fries for kiddo, he had a baked potato instead. Going through GF training for staff but neglecting to have a dedicated fryer seems like a big miss to me, hence the 4 stars.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not impressed. VERY limited menu. Thought I could try guacamole and chips with the GF soup, but the chips have flour. And 2 hours after lunch and service was sssslllloooooowwww.

The service was good, the food tasted great, and there were plenty of gluten-free options, even vegetarian ones. Unfortunately, I had to skip the gluten-free pizzookie this time, since I suffer from GERD (in addition to celiac disease) and can't have chocolate, but the vanilla ice cream that I ordered instead was pretty good, too. I made an exception and trusted the reviews that this place is safe for celiacs instead of asking directly, so I can neither confirm nor deny that it is. However, the staff did appear very knowledgeable. My non-celiac lunch company enjoyed his food as well, so I can vouch for this place for people who don't have to eat gluten-free as well.

I have Celiac disease and I enjoy there PIZOOKIE and don’t have a reaction afterward!

Gluten free options were easy to find on the menu and there were plenty of choices. Food was delicious!

Celiac friendly?

My very sensitive 2yo Celiac daughter had their gluten free pizza and a side of mashed potatoes. She really enjoyed them and did not get sick. The waitstaff seemed well-informed and very careful about the non- gluten free food at the table near my daughter. They have a pretty extensive gluten free menu. I was in town visiting family, or else this would be one of our new favorites.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Went for Sunday lunch, GF options were marked on menu and server advised fries cooked in same oil as breaded items. Went for GF pizza which was not cauliflower but instead gf dough, tasted good but only available in one size.

They have several gluten free options including a dessert option! Our server knew what celiac was and I felt comfortable eating there. I had a bacon cheeseburger on a GF bun that was delicious and loaded baked potato.

DO NOT EAT HERE IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE GLUTENED!! Ordered a burger on gluten free bun but arrived on a regular bun. I cut the burger to make sure they did not just switch buns. Waited a while and they brought out a ‘new’ burger on a gluten free bun. It was the cut burger on a new bun. They tried to cover the cut with toppings. That got sent back and waited even longer for third attempt. Manager apologized as d offered free dessert for mistake. I forgot to cut the gluten free bun so don’t know if I was given a new one or the same one. Third attempt came out with a burger that was over cooked and had a notch removed. Waitress says it wasn’t the same burger but I wasn’t taking any chance and didn’t eat it. When you reheat a burger with a cut in it, it splits in a v just like the third burger was.

I had one of the “gluten safe” Mediterranean chicken salads. It was okay, but I was nervous to eat it bc of the GS label instead of GF. We usually have good luck with BJ’s, but we didn’t one this one. My niece ordered a GF bunless burger and fries. My son ordered the GF bun with burger. The waitress said she would let us know if we ordered anything that wasn’t GF. She was aware that we are celiac and it’s a big deal. My niece ended up getting pretty sick. Upon more research, the fries (in fact) DO contain wheat. That was a big oversight in my opinion. We usually double check, but she said she had it under control.
