Burger 21

I have eaten here twice. The first time I only had a burger on lettuce cups and was fine. The second time I had the same burger on a gf bun with the gf sweet potato fries. About 1 hour later symptoms started to flair. Might be best to steer clear of the fries if you are celiac.

Burgers were delicious! Gf fries and shakes!

Celiac friendly?

Have safely eaten here on several occasions. Had one mixup on a carryout order that got us sick (they put wrong bun in the GF order), but will stick to eating in the restaurant from now on. Love the GF sauces, which are clearly marked, and the gf shakes are great! Kids love this place. Very understanding staff.

Celiac friendly?

The staff was knowledgeable. Excellent food w a lot of selection. Legal fries! Everything clearly marked. We will b back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

GF items are clearly marked and prepped in a separate area. Sweet potato fries were great, plus several GF dipping sauces were available. Also have GF shakes! Have eaten here several times without issues.

Delicious gluten free bun and the burgers are so fresh along with their ingredients. One of our favorites.

Good burgers and gf bun is ok. What I love is that I can eat the fries. The various dipping sauces are great and well marked as far as gf. It’s a nice place and another good thing about it is that they have a place for you to wash your hands without having to go to the bathroom.

Great burger and fries! The cashier knew what I was asking for and the person delivering to my table was aware of gf.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

First time here and majorly impressed. They have a dedicated fryer for their fries and a separate grilling area for the burgers I believe. They brought the gluten free food first then went back to get the gluten items to prevent contamination. I will definitely visit again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Many Gluten Free options, great burgers and shakes!!! Who doesn’t like a gluten free shake. The staff are always awesome, same with the management team, always so welcoming. It’s one of our “go-to” places

Great place to eat! Very knowledgeable and so many gluten free options! I wish I had one by my house so I could eat here all the time

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wow, what a great experience! They are very knowledgeable about gluten and the hospitality was above and beyond. The gluten-free Burger was delicious and they even have a designated fryer for French fries . And the whole restaurant is very clean. I wish all restaurants could be like this. It was so nice to get a gluten-free meal and not have to worry about a thing! I can't wait to go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The manager greeted us right away and explained the menu thoroughly. More GF choices than most restaurants. I was so happy to get a safe burger and fries that also tasted delicious! And the dipping sauce options are also great! Try ragin Cajun! So far so good for this celiac ;)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Place is super clean, staff is very friendly. Everything gluten free is labeled and safe! Love it here!

Celiac friendly?

Really good food, but pricey. Lots of GF options.

I love the sweet potato fries, and no cross contamination! Everything is clearly labeled! It's a little pricey but worth it!

Love the atmosphere and easy ordering options. Even condiments are labeled GF on the bar!

Celiac friendly?

The BEST Gluten Free buns ever! Burgers are absolutely delicious. They have a nice selection of other gluten free options also. Managers are so kind and take the allergy seriously to avoid any cross contamination. I would highly recommend this place!

Beat gluten free bun I have had - the burgers are phenomenal!! A great GF menu! Also the fires are in a dedicated fryer!

Celiac friendly?

My son and I eat here as often as we can and we've never gotten sick. They have a dedicated fryer for french fries! French fries!!

They are definitely gluten conscious. I am also dairy free and their buns are dairy free! Tasty burgers and sweet potato fries- dedicated fryer. Great service. Friendly staff. Will definitely return.

Celiac friendly?

Excellent food and service. My wife, (who has a gluten allergy), and I have eaten here 3 times, and my wife has had no issues with cross contamination at all. They seem to have a good understanding of what the gluten allergy really means, and take it seriously.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love how Gluten free friendly they are. They have 10 sauces you can dip your fries in or add to your burger. The beauty is they are clearly marked GF so you know what is safe. The best part is 7-10 ARE GF!

Great gf buns and fries.

Great burger joint for GF options! Has dedicated kitchen space to cook food and a dedicated fryer for french fries! Dee-lish!

On Safety

I ordered a GF burger. I loved that I could customize the bread, cheese, meat, and all toppings. They have a dedicated menu so your order is listed with a “GF” before the menu item. The food came in a separate bag. The service was fantastic. Very kind and patient with us. No symptoms after eating there. Delicious food. Not a healthy restaurant but delicious and accommodating

Comment

The customer service was chock fil a standards. Super nice, helpful and patient. Grateful for them.

Read the mixed reviews here but went to check it out because there were few options otherwise. I walked up and asked who could I talk to about food allergens and they went and got Calvin (Supervisor) I explained that I was celiac and needed “real” gluten free and if it wasn’t then I would pass. I asked them about the fryer and he said they cook chicken tenders in it and thus it is not gluten free. So I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and a drink. The burger was good and I had no issues. After my burger came out Calvin came to my table and said he was baking me some fries. He personally brought them out about 10 minutes later. They were good. My wife commented that she thought they were better than her fried fries. Overall, excellent experience. Just be clear about your needs and ask accordingly and they will take care of you.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

First time here, although it is in my neighborhood. Will definitely not be the last. My Burger on GF bun was delicious. The server brought out mine and my partner’s (not GF) separately so as to avoid confusion. Their grill is strictly sectioned for gf burgers and the fries were marked Gluten Free, which they explained were done in the dedicated gf fryer. All around impressive experience with a very knowledgeable staff that explained the dedicated gf part of the kitchen to prevent cross contamination. While we are both devoted carnivores, there were also vegetarian options, so there is something for everyone.

Celiac friendly?

No

turned into a Korean BBQ place with no gluten free options

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is one of the few places that I don't feel stressed about eating at. Eaten here several times without issues for burger or fries. Very good food. As long as you let them know the gluten "allergy" aka celiac, is severe they have always done a good job for me.

Gluten free buns available. All sauces we labeled. Staff was knowledgeable and made us aware of some risk of CC when cleaning the fryers. I had the Skinny turkey burger and it was delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

What an awesome meal! The fries are done in a dedicated fryer. They brought my food out separately from the other meals. Plus, there were gluten free labels on them to differentiate. I would go back in a minute!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Since my diagnosis of CD this has become my burger place of choice. Three visits over the past few months with no issues.

Celiac friendly?

No

I asked for a gluten free burger. She said, "we don't have gluten free burgers, only gluten free buns." I tried to ask her why, was it cross contamination, or what? It is on their menu. Why would you have a gluten free bun with nothing to put on it? She just kept barking, "we don't have gluten free burgers, only gluten free buns!" So I walked away.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very good place to eat. Menu is very clear what is safe or not. Fries have a dedicated fryer and are SAFE and delicious!

Had a gluten free bun as promised. Indicated fries weren’t safe so I skipped them. Always appreciate advice from the employees on site. After they took my order they went in back and called out that it needed to be gluten free with a gluten free bun.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten-free buns but they have a shared fryer so the fries aren’t safe

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Separate fryer... GF buns and options! Great place to eat. Never have had a problem!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have eaten here many times, they always ask if the gluten free is for “allergy” reasons and make sure they are very careful. Really good burgers and sauces

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Awesome French fries! Confident staff, separate prep area for gf.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Updating my review bc service is much better lately. We order from here at least once a month. Kids love their burgers with GF buns, delicious fries and yummy milkshakes. We used to go regularly but service has gone downhill in the past 12-18 months. No issues with the GF food and they do well labeling and making fresh fries.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Rather large GF Menu. Menu online. Celiac son...no reaction. Good Burger & Fries. Highly recommend if you’re in the area.

Great experience. Food was good and lots of GF options.

Dedicated fryer for fries, great GF buns and burgers - items were tested on my Nima Sensor and came back with no gluten found. Menu is clearly marked and noted when order is placed.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The hamburguers taste really good with the gluten free bun and they fry the French fries and sweet potato fries separate to avoid cross contamination. I trust this place. Never been sick afterwards.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Dedicated fryer!!!! And separate utensils!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We like this location a little more than the Ashburn one. They have more comfortable seating, a Coke Freestyle machine, and a pay car charging station. Usually it is not as crowded as Ashburn. Daughter likes the GF burger and GF fries, and has never gotten sick after eating here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff knowledgeable and food was marked as gluten free and server said it was upon serving it. Great burgers and dedicated fryer.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was very helpful and allergy aware. Feel very safe eating here. We will be back!

Celiac friendly. They have a dedicated kitchen section and take necessary precautions. Burgers were great and tasty, i liked that they had multiple types of sauces, each marked if they were GF or not. Great family destination. I would recommend the restaurant to put a bit less salt of their fries.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My son and my wife loved the burger and felt really safe. We found the restaurant via Find ne gluten free apps and nice discovery. The food is not only safe but really delicious! The concept is great for great food fast!

This store is no longer open. Go somewhere else

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They were amazing, helpful and careful!

Staff was extremely knowledgeable about gluten free and what constitutes gluten free. I asked if the fries were fried in their own fryer and the server seemed surprised I would even ask. Was told “well they aren’t gluten free if they aren’t in their own fryer”. Yes!! They have a dedicated fryer for all gluten free orders. Order came out with a sticker indicating it to be gluten free. Bun was great! It didn’t fall apart at all. Will definitely be going back!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Their menu and sauce dispensers are labeled for GF items & their fries are in a dedicated fryer. I ordered the ‘shroom burger which was delicious. They brought it out separate and the basket it was in was labeled GF. The GF bun was fantastic and held together completely. They also have GF milkshake options.

My son has a severe wheat allergy and has eaten safely here twice. Dedicated fryer. The gf buns were delicious! Gf french fries are excellent.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Absolutely delicious!!!! Great gf buns and even better they have gf fryers for fries!! I will travel an hour for a good burger and fries, they’re hard to find.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve eaten here many times with no issues. Burgers are delicious and you can never go wrong with gf fries. I always let them know I have a “gluten allergy” and order a gf bun and gf fries. Amazing!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I tried the cheesy burger. It was yummy and had no reaction after eating it.

They seem to be very careful and cautious about the food. I recommend this place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Best gluten free buns around, fries prepared separately so no cross contamination 🎉👍

Had the new Impossible Burger that was GF on a GF bun and fries cooked separate. Just mention to the staff during your order you'd like it GF and they will take care of it for you. Now need to go back and try the real Burger! Great place.

Great every time! Great GF buns and they have the best fries! Labels all their sauces so you know what is GF. Eaten here many times and never had any issues or concerns.

Amazing burgers! The GF bun is really good!

Celiac friendly?

No

They served me a regular bun and I didnt notice until I had already taken a bite. Use extra caution if youre going to use them before your flight

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Burger was delicious and did not get sick. I’m a fairly sensitive celiac. Slightly cheaper than grassburger.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

So tasty, so safe - a real treat. Their GF safety process seems to be spot on. The GF condiments and menu items clearly labelled too (see photos) and its a pleasure to have GF Fries and a choice of tasty burgers including some of their signature flavours rather than being stuck with a plain cheeseburger. The milkshakes are a dessert in themselves and are a welcome safe treat 🎉 Service great and toilets and restaurant spotless too.

Needed lunch to go at the airport. Gluten free bun, no fries. Staff wasn’t knowledgeable but they were cautious first saying that all they have gluten free is the bun. Questioned about the burger and they said oh right, yep that’s all beef. I double checked that nothing is cooked on the same grill top as the burger. They were very nice and accommodating- I ordered before they actually started serving lunch but I needed something for my long flight home and GF reviews of their area restaurant chain are very good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Nice gluten free menu. I feel safe eating here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My daughter was so excited that she could simply go to lunch and eat a burger and fries. She also enjoyed a chocolate shake. Awesome experience for a seven year old six months into her celiac journey.

Celiac friendly?

No

They wanted to take the goat cheese out of he salad since they weren’t sure if it had a gluten contamination. The cheese is what makes the salad!!!!! I walked out in frustration and ate next door at Tijuana Flats.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was friendly and understanding. Celiac’s food was prepared and delivered separately. Food was yummy. They forgot the grilled chicken in my salad, but o chose to let that go and lower my calories with this lunch.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This restaurant was wonderful! My daughter, who has Celiac, was so excited to get a cheeseburger and French fries. All of our food was delicious. She did not get sick from eating here, and she’s sensitive. Wish we had one closer to where we live!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place has such fresh ingredients. We won’t eat Red Robin or grassburger anymore. They cook it to perfection. They have a dedicated fryer for fries. They have a special place to make ur gf burgers just ask. They gave gf buns and lettuce wraps. Everything is clearly marked and the staff is so friendly they’ll help u make modifications. They also do sweet potato fries and the self serve sauce bar as 7 different condiments all clearly marked as to what’s gf or not. I’ve never gotten sick here. And the ingredients r always fresh and burger is juicy and fresh.

They had a great gluten free selection including all sauces available being labeled for gluten content! Only complaint is when we first got there they were out of gluten free buns so I had to wait for a worker to return from “picking some up” whatever that means.
