Review of McAlister's Deli

I've been gluten free for 15 years and the lady taking our order was the least pleasant person I've ever encountered. I was happy to see they had some items I felt I could eat but after my encounter with her I ordered a tea and fruit. Didn't even attempt the potato. I said I was celiac/ gluten allergy. She doesn't say a word to me, turns around grabs the allergy menu and says "I'm not a doctor" I looked at my coworker thinking I was going crazy at how rude she was being. I tried being ever more polite thinking I had done or said something to ask if there was anything they needed to do in the back for gluten she just reiterated that she wasn't a doctor. My coworker actually took over from there and told her how rude she was. Etc. It was mind boggling. Anyway, food might be great but I was unable to find out anything and wasn't in the mood to talk to a manager. She left me with a terrible first impression that they clearly do not understand and I wasn't about to risk eating anything.
