The Cheesecake Factory

To confirm based off a prior review, their fryer IS SHARED. There is NOT a dedicated fryer. The Shepherd’s Pie is great, as was the Bacon-Bacon burger with a GF bun and side salad. The chocolate GF cheesecake is good, but very rich. I recommend sharing dessert and I have the biggest sweet tooth so that says something!

Very limited selection of GF items. I was not impressed with the spicy chicken tacos. I had eaten her before and got glutened by the Shepherd's pie.

Celiac friendly?

No

Ate here tonight. Had a hamburger, and fry’s. They have a separate fryer! Everything was amazing. The waiter was very knowledgeable about celiac.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food is delicious! I had the gluten free shepherds pie. It’s so wonderful that you can get it gluten free and it tastes the same. I wish they had gluten free bread. But they have gluten free pasta and dessert.

Great GF food. We eat burguérs With gf bun. And 4 cheese pasta.

A variety of different GF choices. I had corn tamales, shrimp pasta and godiva cheesecake. Each was gorgeous and huge portions (brought home half the pasta and cheesecake). Great service. With such a large menu I think it would be reasonable to give a few more GF choices, but over all more than happy with the choice and quality. I haven't felt unwell at all.. but there are clear warnings on the menu that they can't guarantee there won't be cross contamination. I was happy enough to take the risk as I've heard of other coeliacs positive experiences... but on the back of this warning I would say not coeliac friendly.... but my experience has been positive.

Celiac friendly?

No

The host was very knowledgeable about Celiac Disease, he also had Celiac. We felt very safe eating there. The waitress fully understood what needed to be done to make it safe for me. I had no problems after eating there!!! If you can have chocolate they offer GF Cheesecake! !

Celiac friendly?

Yes

For a chain, I can always count on their GF menu to be consistent from place to place . We had the GF corn cakes as an appetizer and I enjoyed the GF Shepherds Pie.

Read reviews of the American restaurants that this resto is unsafe but decided to try it myself at the Toronto location. DONT GO. They had some GF items listed on the menu but it’s such a large restaurant that they don’t give enough care to celiac clients. Pretty sure my GF tacos were actually flour tortillas and k was unwell the next day. There are some GF cheesecake options which I’m a bit more confident about because they’re pre-made. But do yourself a favour and go somewhere else to be safe

*update* Since that great experience I have been back twice. The first time, the server told me that they could NOT cook the gf pasta in separate water so I had to get a bun less burger. Oh well.

The second time, I ordered the garlic pasta again and this time the server went and asked the chef if they could accommodate to prevent cc. He assured me they could. However, I had a reaction shortly thereafter. They just don’t seem consistent.

*original post* Had a great experience and the server was knowledgeable. She asked if it was an allergy or preference. When I told her, she said the cooks will change their gloves, etc. Items on menu are marked with gf options. I asked about the gf pasta and she said they will cook it in separate water from regular pasta.

I’ve ordered gluten free from them multiple times and feel the overall quality of Cheesecake Factory has gone downhill. It’s tasteless.

The entire wait staff were incredibly attentive to my requests for gluten free dietary needs. They even came back to tell me one of the dressings I thought was gluten free, wasn’t and offered another! Wow! Great attention to detail! So appreciative of them. I celebrated my 48th birthday and was able to also get the gluten free/sugar free cheesecake with strawberries which was amazing! I waiting 24 hours to write this review to ensure no side effects.
