This was the first time I was at this restaurant and they have a gluten sensitive menu. I had a burger and the French onion soup even had gluten free bread! They have a dedicated gluten free fryer for fries. The only downside is the bun fell apart pretty quickly. The server was super knowledgeable and helpful. I would go back and eat here.

Disappointed. This location did not have the Gluten Free Flat Bread; waitress said it had been a couple months since they had it. I also have issues with vegetable washes and their salad greens are all prewashed, so that was out. Waitress was nice and helpful, but little to eat for me. Ended up with a Bison Burger, with cheese, skipped the GF Bun and toppings. If you want a burger, salad, or a lettuce wrapped sandwich, you will be ok. Sides are a challenge. Waitress was helpful in identifying what was safe to eat.

I had a sandwich with a gluten-free bun (it’s not in the menu but the waiter immediately knew that they have one) and a soup that had no gluten. The overall experience was really good and I had no problems afterward.

Ate here last night and had no after effects. Server was very helpful. I had the Salmon and even though it is naturally gf she had it marked gf so they would know to clean the grill before making it for me. Rice pilaf and asparagus were my sides. No dedicated fryer but many other options can be made gf. They do have gf buns too. Did not flag as gf but it came out separately and the server said that it was the gf salmon before handing to me.

I ordered off the GF menu. I ordered the Bleu Peppercorn Burger, with a side of rice, and drank it down with a Flying Monkey. Then I got so sick I vomited it all up. Not sure what happened, but of course I’ll never eat here again.

Went for a work dinner where they were catering for 70 people. I wasn’t expecting to be able to eat anything. No gluten free menu but some items can be made GF like the burger had a gluten free bun. We didn’t have the usual menu just a set menu as we were a large group and GF was not marked on anything. I asked them for GF options. They asked if I was celiac or just sensitive which for me is usually a good indication they know what they are talking about. They were aware of cross contamination with fries being cooked in the same fryer as gluten containing items and informed me of the ingredients of the components of my meal to check it was ok with me too. The food tasted good!
