Yes

Yes

If you are sensitive to gluten, please don't visit this place. When me and my family came here, we told the server that we were gluten free and she rolled her eyes at us and made our food. The people were judgemental and rude. They made me and my brother share a half serving of meat. The food was okay but too simplistic. There is no gluten free bread or anything so they only advertise gluten free to get more customers. If this simplistic style is just Mediterranean style than I apoligize.

Celiac friendly?

No

it is a decent and safe fast food place. lots of options...well marked on menu

We visited Garbonzo's while in town for a family event. Reading the reviews I got the idea that it was set up similar to Chipotle but with with Greek/ Mediterranean food, and that's exactly what it was you. You pick your style (wrap, salad, plate, pita) and then pick your protein and whatever else you want on it. While we waited they gave us a falafel (which was awesome). I ordered a salad and I was happy to see that each time someone ordered gluten-free they changed their gloves and they also pulled out a sep. set of ingredients from under the counter that had been set up for GF orders (to avoid cross-contamination). The food was excellent. I even went back and ordered more homemade chips & hummus to take back to our family. I really hope this chain spreads and I find one close to me soon.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The first time i came here the servers were well away about how to prepare GF food. My second time back and the servers (different set of people) thought they knew how to serve GF, but still had cross-contamination. They used the same spoon, but changed out the food :/ good thing the General Manager was there doing audits and I was able to tell her what the servers did. She wasn't very happy with them. I really like the food and want to come back if/when they can serve it the right way.

My favorite go-too place for a gluten free/dairy free lunch!

This place does not care about your celiac disease or gluten allergy. The gluten free option is $3 more and the cross contamination in this place is crazy. My sister in law went to get our food and they didn’t have the gluten free one landed, their reasoning being “ oh the bread is obviously different” not necessarily. If you have a gluten allergy just avoid going here.

I had a chicken rice bowl for lunch. The toppings are all labeled gluten free except the tabbouleh. The gyro meat is not gf. I had a great bowl, you have to pay attention though, I read they have gluten free pita, when I ordered my bowl I asked if the gyro meat is gluten free, it’s not, she then proceeded to give me regular pita bread…sigh, luckily I questioned her on it so didn’t eat it
