Gluten Intolerant

Review


I have a gluten intolerance, as well as a shellfish and nut (peanut and tree nut) allergy. I have frequented this restaurant before and have always felt safe.

Last night, I went and ordered the gluten free chicken parm. When it came out, the breading on it looked like it wasn’t gluten free, or how it usually looks. I asked the waitress and she said they changed their breading for the gluten free chicken parm, so it makes sense that it looks different than the last time I had it.

She had the manager come out to show me the breading. He even took a picture of the brand they use and showed me the ingredient list. I felt so comfortable and reassured. AND it was so yummy!!

Nice people, but management doesn’t seem to understand the needs of those with a serious gluten allergy including Celiac. Our waitress was knowledgeable. They have several options on the menu labeled GF that are not safe. They DO NOT have a separate fryer. Be careful!

My 18 year old has celiac. We had read the one review and called ahead to check that they could safely prepare gf meal. We were assured they could. We then talked to server and she said she would talk to chef so my 18 year old felt comfortable ordering the gluten free pizza. She was up all night throwing up! She was definitely glutened .

New location of this local chain in Norwood. Other locations I know have been a little more gluten friendly...but still had a great meal here. They don’t have a separate menu here, but the waiter was knowledgeable and what he didn’t know he asked the chef. They have GF buns, so burgers and most sandwiches are able to be made GF. No dedicated fryer, so French fries are out. But the nachos are GF, and that’s the way to my heart 😍. Will definitely be back.
