These guys were great! The person who started my order had an allergen menu and let me know I could have corn tortillas, nachos, or a bowl. On their website the chips are not listed gluten free (probably due to cross contamination?? Not sure). They changed gloves without me asking and they were SO helpful. Any of their fajita meat is NOT gluten free but the freebird chicken is and it was delicious. I will definitely be going back.

I spoke with the manager today who told me they do have procedures in place to avoid cross contamination.

I got a Burrito Bowl which is a burrito minus the tortilla. I got the white rice, cheese, refried beans, chips, and queso all of which were GF. However, I got the steak and didn't check to see if it was GF because I assumed it was. But it is not gluten free. Still, as long as you are careful this is a great place to eat! Very yummy!

I visited the Evans Rd @ 1604 location and ordered a salad, and when I asked which dressings were GF, the manager had no idea. He said they didn't have a list, and what info they did have wasn't something he could show me because it had the ingredient list on it. (Imagine that... Telling the customer what's IN the food!! Gasp!) It's confidential. So, he had to go call another manager to find out. No glove changing, special attention, or knowledge at all. The food is good, but the CC and lack of info should scare away anyone who is really sensitive.

Love this food and love these people. The music is a bit too loud for my taste, but the outside dining is pleasant.

Very yum. Literally just a better chipotle lol.

I added a picture of the allergen sheet, basically just avoid beef.

I really like freebirds! But I’m a simple eater so I only get rice, chicken, and cheese- has no problems. They have a guide for gluten free products- they were able to check that the brisket was not gluten free.

There is a lot of variety on choosing what to put into my bowl. I basically was able to have most of the protein options, but there were three that I couldn’t have which was the steak, the limited time protein, and the vegan chorizo as they contain gluten. The prices aren’t too bad either! I definitely recommend this place. They change their gloves and grab a freshly cleaned tray for my order.

The management here has gone down completely. No one knows what gluten is and I watched them cross contaminate every single thing on the serving bar today a guy with gloves on that it just touched the tortilla grabbed the chicken that had fallen all over the line and put it back with his hands. DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE CELIAC.
