I was nervous to come here because of the previous reviews, but I had a great experience! They have a dedicated GF fryer and explained that they change gloves and make GF items on cleaned surfaces. There was one GF appetizer option, the corn tamales, which were pretty good! Got a burger and fries as my meal, and the Godiva Cheesecake for dessert. Most importantly, I did not get sick!

Had a burger and fries. The waiter said fries could be done in a separate fryer. Did not get sick. Decent food!

Be very careful! The server served regular pasta and claimed it was gf! It was not and my daughter ate it.

Food is tasty but risk of contamination is high! They offer GF pasta but when questioned they cook the pasta in the same water as the regular. French fries are from a dedicated fryer from what the waiter told me.

I told the waitress that I had celiacs and I ordered a salad with no dressing. Chopped factory salad. I think there may have been some sort of wonton in my salad that was not supposed to be in it because I got violently ill. Will never go back!!!

Fantastic steak Diane and Godiva cheesecake! And my waitress was lovely! But the table next to me had a nasty waitress.

Ordered two small plates- chips and guacamole and sweet corn tamale cakes- as they were listed "gluten free upon request" on the menu. The plates were NOT gluten free. Got severely ill and contacted Cheesecake Factory about their lack of training on food allergies. Haven't heard back yet.

I would give it less if I could. My mom's meal came a half hour before mine did and I only got pasta!!! When I finally got my food, it tasted good but I found remnants of regular pasta at the bottom. Sure enough, I felt sick an hour later. Would not recommend. Terrible service and got sick from it.

My dad called the manager and gave us a gift card but it is not worth the risk.

Surprisingly large gluten-free menu including gluten-free kid meals that didn't break the bank. I was pleasantly surprised, and my gluten-intolerant kid loved being able to eat out.

Amazing GF burgers, fries, pasta and cheesecake. Completely seperate menu for Gluten Allergy with a large selection for any meal including breakfast. I have a severe allergy to Gluten and have never had any problems eating here, highly recommended for those looking for delicious GF food and a lot of options.

Había muchas opciones sin tacc. Me pareció que eran bastante consientes de las implicaciones. Te ofrecen pan sin tacc para acompañar la comida pero es pan de hamburguesa (rico). La pasta es tan rica que no se nota que es sin gluten.
