Review


I have celiac. I want to provide some details here as I think anyone who has struggled with this disease will appreciate them. When I told the guy on the burrito line that I was interested in GF food, he asked specifically if I had celiac. When I said yes, he immediately took off his plastic gloves and disappeared in the back. He came back with wet hands - he had washed them - and then put on new gloves. For celiac, he recommend the bowl with either chicken or steak. He recommended against other items. Then, as he made his way down the line, he used a small disposable cup (like you would for a serving of ice cream) to scoop out the items - lettuce, tomato, corn, etc. I really appreciate this since there was no way there could be contamination from a contaminated spoon. Overall, I was impressed with their process, which reflected good understanding about safety. And - he cared. Food was good.
