I told my waiter I could not consume gluten as soon as I sat down. I had to send my order back because my food was CC (they said bacon was reheated in same place as regular bread is). Thank goodness my friend also had bacon on her food and mentioned it tasted like to had been deep fried so we inquired to another waitress and that’s how I found out about the CC. Waitress didn’t seem to be paying much attention to what she was serving me, didn’t tell the kitchen about my condition and the manager didn’t care at all about my potential CC and me having to wait another 20 Minutes for my food even though the rest of my party was already eating.

Every time I order anything on a gf roll, the next question I get is would you like gluten free fries? A manager delivers gluten free dishes separately from non gf dishes

The food menu has gotten a little smaller but the staff are really good at suggesting modifications to anything that they can make gf

I ordered the chicken bacon ranch explained that I had a gluten allergy and they grilled my chicken instead of fry chicken and gluten free bread. I had no issue none of the sides are gluten free except for the veggies

Menu is a bit limited. I haven’t gotten sick, but I’ve also had to ask many many questions to make sure I’ll be good. I usually get the Ruben on GF bread without the thousand island dressing as it isn’t gluten free. Food is decent for chain bar food.

I always got the gluten free pizza and always felt sick after... met with the owner and asked what the process in the kitchen was and it was all shared equipment... educated the owner on for celiac disease and that's not ok... now I have Nima and the pizza is still coming back with a gluten finding come to find out the owner didn't take my advice for separate sauce tools etc... the brownie sundae is the only thing I can eat there.

This place was really good at first (summer 2016). Suddenly (recently to this post date, 3/15/17). I went back and they changed their menu completely. They have gf buns still and gf pizza. They added gf lasagna which is what I got. The night of, I was ok but felt really tired and blah. I had reheats and ended up getting more sick. I remembered I had my gluten-testing contamination device Nima. I tested it and it came back positive for gluten. It confirmed I'm not overreacting but has given me second thoughts about going here again. Friends think maybe they ran out of gf pasta and used regular. Another theory is that we had a different waitress bring out our food than the one who was our primary waitress. I've had foods mixed up on me and been contaminated in the past this way simply because the secondary waitress doesn't know better. I'm hesitant to go back but my boyfriend is willing to if it means proving they aren't serving safe food (via my gluten tester). I would recommend going with the salads or burgers where you have a fair shot of not getting sick.
