The Cheesecake Factory

I ordered a ceasar salad, gluten free, no croutons. The salad came out and appeared to have no croutons, but once I started eating it, there were several at the bottom covered in dressing it was clear they had accidently made it with croutons, then picked them out, missing several. Do not eat here! They are not properly trained.

GF options are nice. Service is slow and unattentative at this location. We much prefer the Southdale location even though this location is 3 miles from us. Better service and better food at Southdale!

Our waitress was awesome regarding food sensitivities. She brought the chef to my table & they recommended I reverse my order due to my sensitivities. I did end up ordering something else and was thankful for their perspective. Overall a great experience. GF was designated on menu by my food sensitivities extend beyond that.

the server was knowledgeable, and I didn't get sick. the menu has little GF Optional icons. the menu is most of the burgers, salads, and some pasta. decent selection, and choices.

I’ve been coming here frequently the last few months and I can say honestly if you’re super sensitive to gluten or allergic to it, I don’t recommend this location at all. I always make sure to tell my server I have a gluten allergy and it’s always hit or miss whether they take that seriously.

When they do, the food is amazing and they are super accommodating, giving me gluten free rolls instead of the free bread they usually serve and having my food prepared in the allergy section of the kitchen. A manager also took my order and verified with the chefs to make sure nothing would be a problem.

Unfortunately this level of care isn’t guaranteed and recently I’ve been getting really sick from the food, so I had to stop going altogether. It’s not worth the risk! The last time I went my food didn’t come with the allergy indicators they usually stick in it and I didn’t say anything because I thought the staff knew what they were doing. I got so violently sick after, I stayed up all night and had to call out of work the next day.

I feel bad complaining because the staff are usually so friendly and nice, but this really affected my health. I think people should know that they often make mistakes with the gluten free food, even with specifying an allergy :(

My daughter who has celiac told the waiter that she had a gluten allergy and would get very sick if he did not put the order in as gluten free. Waited over an hour for our food. The pasta she got looked gluten free but after 3 bites, she said it did not taste good. Within 15 minutes, she was sick in the bathroom. Told the waiter - did not seem to be concerned. Asked him to take the dish off of our bill and that did not seem to concern him either. Overall, do not eat here if you want gluten free food.

I let the server know I was gluten free - coeliac multiple times so she would get my order right and I confirmed with her again before my meals came out and she still gave me the gluten cheesecake instead of the gluten free one

I went here and ordered a gluten free burger and bun. The food came with a gluten bun. I sent it back as I noticed it wasn’t gluten free. I woke up sick as a dog for two days. If you’re sensitive don’t eat here. Even after the gluten free bun change I still got sick.
