Review of The Cheesecake Factory

I called the restaurant to inquire about their gluten free options. I wanted to make sure cross contamination would not be an issue. I was told that they cook the GF pasta in the same water as the regular pasta and that they could not accommodate me by putting it in a clean pot with clean water. They also said things are cooked on the same surface, so the gluten free bun would not necessarily be gluten free anymore either. The woman on the phone asked the kitchen manager to verify the info. I will not be eating there. It doesn’t make sense to have gluten free items on the menu that will be cooked in gluten. Beware!

— Not at all
