Came for dinner and was assured they take great precaution with GF/celiac. Fries were next level delicious - perfectly seasoned and crispy, but the burger left some to be desired. As far as taste it was bland, cost was a bit high. GF options were not extensive but it would do in a pinch. Locally owned so that’s a plus!

Staff was very helpful. They are not able to make their grilled cheese GF, but they made a special one for my son. My GF block burger and sweet potato fries were tasty, and neither one of us got sick. Will definitely eat here again next time we’re in town!

Great food and they asked me at the register if I had celiac or a gluten intolerance and made sure to note it for the chefs. I got the block burger with a gluten free bun and fries (they have a dedicated fryer!!) I will definitely be coming here again.

They have a dedicated gluten free fryer. When ordering my food I included I was celiac in the notes and they took very good care of me and the burger and fries were delicious.

One of the best burgers I have ever had, even before diagnosis. Fries are also gluten free. Very helpful staff.

There is no gluten free menu but called to see if certain things could be prepared gluten free. Ordered a Belgian Smash burger and Elote fries. So delicious! I am the only celiac in my family so they warned me not to use the sauces for my kid’s entrees. Felt very safe and no reactions.

I was very nervous because there is no GF menu and it’s counter service. But we went last night and the cashier was very knowledgeable and explained that the pulled pork and burgers are GF, and fries are in a dedicated fryer. The brown gravy does have gluten. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich and the crab Rangoon fries sans the wontons. They were amazing!!! No ill effects!

It does not have a dedicated fryer. They have things that they said are gluten free but when I asked more questions, they weren’t. Despite this I was able have a simple salad and steak and didn’t get sick

Counter order place. Worker told me what was gf. They have a gf bun and fries are in a separate fryer. Food is delicious. Only one cider, no gf beers but good wine selection.

Don’t let the line out the door scare you away. Some of Omaha’s best food here. They were very knowledgeable about GF needs and the options that were available to me. Menu is small but many things can be made GF- just ask. I had the pulled pork sandwich on a gluten free bun along with some sweet potato fries. Fries are made in a separate fryer so they are safe for celiac. So good!!
