I found this place from fmgf. I had a Cobb salad. Replaced the blue cheese crumbles and egg for corn. I told them of my ‘gluten allergy’ and requested that they use fresh ingredients from the back and change gloves since I saw them dip their gloves in the crunchy toppings and then grab lettuce with the same gloves to make the next salad. The worker agreed to make it from the back and seemed to understand cc. But I ate a few bites when I got to the house I’m staying and within 15mins had symptoms, more than just cc symptoms. I would say this place is not celiac safe.
I like this Chopt. They have a lot of GF options. It’s a salads and bowl place, counter service. You pick your greens (lettuce, spinach, kale, etc), rice or quinoa, meat, and toppings. They have great sauce. This is one of my usual spots. I highly recommend it. Prices are very reasonable.

They said they have no gluten free meat. When I was here a few years ago they said almost everything was gluten free. Drove 30 minutes to leave with no food. Mad and sad. And hangry.
Menu is not marked as GF but I asked about safety precautions. The manager was fantastic about showing me a flip chart of gf items, which can be downloaded. She told me they have a prep area for allergen sensitivity and clean it before prep and take allergies seriously. All the dressings are gf. There is the chance of cross contact but I had a very good experience without a reaction.
I put gluten allergy in all caps on my order and I found a crouton in my salad. Will update on if I get sick. Never have before from here but stay tuned.
Chopt was great! I asked for them to change gloves, and they immediately did! I asked for no goat cheese on my salad and they asked me what to replace the goat cheese with, they will sub for ingredients at no charge. I loved the salad. They mix it up for you with what looked like clean bowl and spatula. I did not get glutened but I am sure they would change tools if asked. I did not ask about anything being gluten free but did let them know I had a gluten allergy at the beginning.
I had to do some looking on their website to find which salads were gluten free, but when I told them about my gluten sensitivity they were helpful and when I asked to remove an item, the offered to substitute others. A good choice for salads.
