It’s not worth it, at all. I wanted to give it a try since it hasn’t been a couple years since the last GF review. My wife and I went for lunch and they have maybe 2-3 options in each section of 10+ items that are gluten free optional. If you get something that is GF but is fried, it’s not separated to a GF fryer. You’d think with all of the selections they have, they’d have more GF options.
While I explained four times how serious it was the food was gluten free and cooked separately as my daughter has celiac disease and they assured me they had spoken to the chef and everything was safe in reality they served us tortilla chips that had been fried in the same fryer as items with gluten. When I said something about it I got a “bummer sorry” response. I contacted the headquarters and no one responded. Will never be eating there again.
I ordered an omelette of the menu and told the waitress that I was allergic to gluten. About halfway through eating my meal I opened the omelette and there were numerous strands of spaghetti in my omelette. NEVER has this happened to me. I got extremely sick. I would not trust this kitchen to make anything celiac friendly if spaghetti wound up in an omelette.
Notes
The Cheesecake Factory has an extensive gluten free menu. Gluten free options include pasta, burgers (with buns), and cheesecake for dessert.

Just learned that CF has gluten free options this past week! We ate there last night and it was delicious! I had lemon herb roasted chicken. We ate there tonight and my gf mushroom hamburger came with a gf bun! I expected a bunless burger, but this was a nice surprise. Fries were offered and I asked if they were fixed in a dedicated fryer; the server checked and said yes, but the regular fryer was right next to it and the chef suggested there was a chance of cross contamination, so I passed on the fries. A wonderful experience!
Multi-plage gluten free men, including several pasta dishes! I got the gf 4 cheese pasta and it was delicious! They even have a gf Godiva chocolate cheesecake! I will definitely be going back. I spoke with the manager when placing my order and he answered all of my questions well.

The fryer is NOT dedicated. Tukwila one is!
I ate here tonight and got the gf pasta. Am in a world of pain 3 hours later…not saying it was the pasta but also not NOT saying it was the pasta. It wasn’t clear that anything on the menu would be safe, as even the salads had questionable things in them. Went for a friends bday but would not recommend going if you have any choice in the matter.
Great staff and very professional, however, it seems they are not as careful as they say. I was here for a Christmas party and was served food that had cross contact or trace amounts of gluten. I have been sick /fuzzy headed all day.
Good variety of GF options, pasta, burgers, etc. The food delicious the waiter very helpful because we also have other allergies, and he made the specific arrangements for our meals. Not a dedicated facility, but if you can handle traces probably will be good. I have gluten allergies and since in the comments I saw alerts of cross contamination I had a gluten cutter pill, just in case. I at a pasta dish and my mom a hamburger both of us have gluten allergies but we don’t have problems with traces.
My fiancée loved their gluten free menu options and greatly enjoyed the pasta she got. We didn’t catch our waitress’ name, but she told us she also suffers from gluten intolerance, so we felt like we were in safe hands. My fiancée forgot to ask for no croutons on her salad, but our waitress made sure there were none on there anyway. Absolutely fantastic experience
