I ordered a cheese burger on a gluten free bun with a side of sweet potato fries. It was SO delicious! The burger was medium cooked and so juicy. I had no reaction. Highly recommend this place as a lunch or simple dinner spot.
Excited to eat here…
My family really enjoyed their meal. I enjoyed my sweet potato fries (dedicated fryer), however my chicken was DRY… like, choke down dry. They do however have a GF bun and come out with flags on your food when flagged Gluten Free.
As for service… Server wasn’t attentive beyond first approach. Never came back except to drop the food and we had to ask for the check.
Highly recommend eating inside and not out. Birds will swarm and try to swipe your food. There is also a bee issue. So heads up if you have a bee allergy. 🧡
Very friendly staff and a good overall experience! They do not have a gluten free menu & I did not see anything on the menu marking items as gluten free or any mentions of gluten free buns, but the waitress was knowledgeable about the options. I had a grilled chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries, the gluten free bun was great! The sandwich was a bit dry for my taste and could’ve used a bit more seasoning, but was still a satisfying meal! I did not ask about cross contamination but was told the sweet potato fries are fried in a different place than the rest of the food, so I believe those should be safe.

Based in other reviews my hubby and I went here for lunch. (No allergies for him)
I asked our waiter if the fried catfish was gluten free and he looked at me like I was speaking another language 🤣…my husband then asked him to check with the chef if it was made using corn meal or wheat flour, thankfully cornmeal (shared fryer though so not safe for celiac).
It was very tasty!
I’m giving 4 stars based on our particular server and found it a bit overpriced for the portion sizes. We spent $50 for 2 meals/2 sodas.
If you are ok with cross contamination this has tasty options.
This place was stellar! Most of the menu can be made gluten free! I had the Bacon Jam Burger and fries. Gluten free fryer! It was great!
No gf menu, had the pecan salad with salmon And a margarita and it was great! Did not get sick. Waiter was very kind about my allergy
This was the best burger with bun I’ve had since getting to San Antonio. There was not a gluten free menu but the waitress was very knowledgeable about what’s they had to accommodate. Great option on Riverwalk!
The staff was helpful in selecting gf items. Did not get sick!
Service was amazing! Server checked twice on foods to see if they were GF. Lots of items to chose from. I just didn’t care for the flavor of the food. That’s the only reason for the 3 star rating.
Waiter was very knowledgeable! Assured us that no gluten ever touched the grill. He went through the menu to offer suggestions. He even told my husband to not kiss my daughter after he served him his chicken fried steak. Too funny! My daughter loved the ribs! - ask for Christian as your waiter
Beautiful fluffy gluten free buns and BBQ sauce to have with brisket sandwich. Staff were great and at finding out for me from kitchen what was safe for me to eat. Were happy to swap out fires for potato salad due to cross contamination with fryer.
Chicken wings were good, so was the steak. No gf menu. Server was nice but unsure of how safe. Gf bun available.
Although they do not have a gf menu, the kitchen manager. Charlie came out and spoke with me and helped me figure out what I could eat!! He even ran downstairs and got me some corn chips that were safe.
