I had the baked potato and vegetable chili. The potato was very dry but they do offer other GF food. I had a question about an item and they were patient and even pulled out an allergy binder to reassure me.

When ordering with gluten free bread they all of it’s an allergy or a preference. They then change gloves and use different utensils. I’ve never had a problem at any of their locations.

I told the cashier numerous times that my wife has celiac. She told me it wouldn't be a problem. Within minutes of eating her potato, my wife was sick. I asked for a manager and was informed most of the employees aren't aware of gluten and that there is a risk of cross contamination. Not recommended for celiacs.

Salads and dressing were mostly all GF. I ordered the Savannah Salad which was listed in the GF menu - it came with blue cheese crumbles which are not technically GF (the blue is wheat mold, or so I've read). I've never had problems with blue cheese tho.

The chili and most of the stuffed potatoes were GF.

They didn't have a GF bread or offer lettuce wraps for the sandwiches. So it's just salad, chili or stuffed potatoes.

They did have a GF menu, but didn't realize that they did. It was stuffed in with the nutritional info book that they handed me.

I had a gluten free sandwich and the bread was good. It was soft and didn’t fall apart. There also salads and baked potatoes that are gluten free. The menu has an icon to show which items are gluten free. None of the soups or desserts are gluten free, sadly.

Absolutely amazing. They asked if it were an allergy or preference and when I told them I had celiacs they immediately told the kitchen. These sandwiches are amazing. The bread is so good. Highly recommended.
