MAD Greens - Inspired Eats

Great salads with plenty of options. Dressings are clearly labeled . (Would suggest the red pepper one)

In regards to the previous review, there aren't very many gluten ingredients to have cross contamination. Obviously it's possible, but unless you are hyper sensitive, you should be fine. (Do any restaurants really "guarantee" you won't have issues?) My sister and I (both celiacs) had no problems.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had trusted Mad Greens in the past. Yesterday I was told by the Mad Greens employee at different location that there is no chance of me eating there without getting sick. "We make no guarantees regarding gluten because there are no controls in our food prep. We use the same cutting boards and knives to cut bread and vegetables without washing in between. Even if that cutting board was washed, we work side-by-side with gluten containing ingredients. All vegetables have probably been exposed to gluten, even those in the bins that have not been put on the line yet. It would be safer if you don't eat here." So, I walked out. I do not understand how anything can say gluten free if there are no controls. That employee scared me out of the restaurant.

Celiac friendly?

No

I have bad celiacs I informed the gal and she was awesome got all my toppings and even salad from New cobtainers. I was super impressed and my salad was huge even though I just ordered a regular. she was super sweet and I was happy wasn't treated rude and she got new so no contamination

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I found the mad greens staff to be extremely friendly and helpful and it is easy to order according to individual dietary needs

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very over priced and unfriendly toward questions. Just trying to order is a nightmare, even though the menu is labeled. They look at you like you are crazy for even asking how to order gluten free. Great concept, but too much risk of cross contamination for this Celiac.

Celiac friendly?

No

Use caution - it's one of those chains that labels a lot of the protein and dressing options as GF when they still aren't safe for celiacs. Staff is transitory, so don't expect them to know what gluten is, you'll get questionable answers, e.g. ask how the chicken is prepared instead. I also worry about cross contamination from the toppings set up. The dressing chart is handy as it shows lots of allergy aware info.

Very disappointing. Although they do give you gluten free options it is very overpriced and small portions of salads. I ordered a pre-made PBJ for my son that was actually rotten! Better off going to Spoons just a block away!!!

Tasty! Menu is very clear on GF choices. Celiacs need not worry!

Great salads and easy to eat GF

They have a great allergy list, but not careful about cross contamination.

I ordered online and specifically told them gluten free- pretty good tasting salad but most of the way through eating, i found a gluten crouton in my salad..
