Been here three times the past few weeks.

Servers all were knowledgeable about the restaurants protocols for food allergies / Celiac. All ingredient were checked against a list for May Contain or cross contamination. Manager delivered food every time.

I’ve had the Cheese Burger sub with a GF Bun. It didn’t crumble!

Truffle fries are really good too.

Next time I’m going to try the Chicken and Deep Fried Pickles.

Dedicated fryer and lots of choice. The servers have always been great about double checking and answering any questions. This is one of my go to places. The calamari is to die for!!!

This is not a dedicated GF restaurant. Not Celiac friendly. I asked for a GF menu and told by the server there isn’t one. There were 2 items marked GF on the menu and no guarantee of cross contamination When I asked if there was cross contamination the response I received from the server was; “Oh! You do not want cross contamination with that?”. It was clear that I needed to leave before ordering, I thanked the server, tipped her for my drink and went to Milestones.

The staff were very knowledgable about the protocols & it was a kitchen staff who brought the food out (with gloved hands no less) as our server wasn’t allowed to. I had the Calamari - delicious! Definitely recommend going there. Our server was fantastic.

I’ve ate at this location a number of times, ordering the med bowl three times. Each time the server let me know they had a new separate dedicated fryer, it’s been safe for 2/3 times (I’m a later in life diagnosis and currently extremely sensitive)! Not the biggest GF menu, but appreciate the efforts.

A great spot for gluten free food. Since they’re a chain, you can easily find allergen information. This location is big and spacious as well! They have a good understanding of gluten “allergies.” My favourite dishes are the hot chicken and pickles (made in a separate fryer) and the zen sushi rolls.

Really great staff, went and checked all the ingredients of the tofu bowl, there was a may contain on one sauce, I risked it because it seemed really unlikely to be an issue but could have gotten something else and it was reassuring that they'd tell me. Separate fryer!

They were so good with my little girl and had a separate fryer. She was so excited to have a cheeseburger with a bun she can eat and it was delicious!
