Review of Jonathan's Grille

The menu has several items clearly listed as GF BUT it turns out that most are fried in the same fryer that cooks the breaded items. These items include the crispy brussel sprouts appetizer, fajita nachos, and queso. The tortilla chips are house fried in their shared fryer. I got sick after eating the nachos even though the server promised me they were GF. On our next visit we had a server who understood my concerns but believed the items to be safe. She inquired in the kitchen and learned that none of the appetizers are actually GF.

The menus are probably sent to all locations. Some may have dedicated fryers but, sadly, this one does not.

That being said, there are plenty of ciders available as well as many GF salads. I have never been sick after eating the salads.

If the franchise would make sure that all of it's locations had proper equipment to offer the menu as listed there would be no problem. That is probably too much to ask so I would be happy if the GMs were educated enough to know that their locations could not provide the menu items as described. It is highly unlikely that the GMs are not aware of this fact.
