Good burger bowl and great fries, but felt the restaurant environment left a lot to be desired. I’m weird about eating at clearly uncleaned tables where I know lots of folks are eating gluten with their hands, and this was that. I would do takeout but not eat on location again.

I felt really nervous eating here, but they reassured me and were right. Had amazing truffle fries! No symptoms! The blueberry soda was fun too!

I usually don’t crave burgers/fries, but since finding this place in Shirlington I find myself craving their gluten-free burgers! They are sooooooo delicious and I’ve never felt sick after eating here. Probably been about 10 or 11 times at this point and as I’m writing this now I want to eat there - dang it! I usually get the angus burger medium-well to not break the bank (it’s their least expensive burger), some of these are kinda pricey, but they are better than Five-Guys. “The Brunch Burger” is amazing! I can’t have dairy either so I just have them omit the cheese. The truffle fries are amazing as well. Each time they’ve been very good about asking if I have a gluten allergy so they can be extra, extra careful with preparation. I heard from a friend when they first opened her coworker ate here and became ill. That’s so unfortunate, but they must’ve gotten whatever the issue was under control because that was over a year ago and I’ve never had a single problem. I like that they are more environmentally conscious with compostable boxes and recyclable bags, plus recycled paper towels for dine-in. Highly recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was excellent! The Parmesan truffle fries were delicious- they have a dedicated fryer for all sides! All sauces are gluten-free. The manager even brought over the ingredient booklet for items I had questions about. The only downside was the buns were kind of crumbly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Got VERY sick after eating here. I could not tell if they used the same gloves for the different buns. While the food was good, it’s not worth getting sick a few hours later.

Celiac friendly?

No

I love this place! Best burger I have had in a loooong time. Gluten free buns...and they are awesome.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My go to for Friday night dinner! Best gluten free bun I have found- does not fall apart. Cajun fries from dedicated fryer are amazing as well!

Excellent new burger/milkshake/beer joint in lovely Shirlington Village. Manager super knowlegeable about allergies and Celiac, and showed me the many steps they have in place for dealing with allergens. The gf bun that they have brought in was so delicious I would have sent it back at any other restaurant, not believing that it was really gf. But I saw them put it in a dedicated gf toaster, far from the wheat buns. Fries also in dedicated fryer, and the meat grill was not used for their gluten items. Fun and hip atmosphere would be perfect place for young adult to hang with friends, order safe food, and not stand out at all. This is going to be a new favorite for our gf teen for sure!
