Melt Bar & Grilled

Waitress was knowledgeable and warned me that the fryer is not dedicated gf so I did not order fried foods. She answered questions about whether my other allergens were present in food. Food was high quality. I did not have a reaction. Unfortunately on the delivery apps I have tried they do not offer an option to select gluten free bread or dairy free cheese, they only seem to offer that in store/takeout.

Ignorant to what gluten free actually means. Unhelpful answers to questions about gluten free sides. Was told fries and onion rings were gluten free before finding out they use the same fryer as everything else.

Celiac friendly?

No

Says sides are safe, but use the same fryer as glutenated products.

Very delicious, but both times I have been I've had a reaction-not a super bad one, but still a reaction. I'm guessing it was cross contamination from shared grill space. Would be extra careful if you go.

My son has celiac disease and had a great sandwich. They told us that their fries and chips are technically gf but are fried in a shared fryer so they won't be safe. He had the coleslaw which wad a little too peppery for him. It was a great experience and glad we went.

Sooooo yummy! I have Celiac Disease. I ordered the Cleveland cheesesteak. Since the gf bread is smaller they made it into two sandwiches. I asked for extra aioli sauce because it’s AMAZING! I didn’t care for the way too peppery coleslaw so I’ll try something different next time but I just about cried over how good the sandwich was. 💗They also carry Green’s gf beer (pint) which I liked. Everyone in my party liked their food. Can’t wait to go back! I also ate at Melt in Columbus (Short North district) a few years ago and had a great experience there as well.

Yes

Sandwich store with many options including vegan cheese. Staff was very helpful and double checked the ingredients

This place has a “Gluten-Free” menu. My girlfriend has celiac disease. We at off the GF menu. Within 10 minutes she was having major issues. It has been 2 weeks since we are there and it’s still effecting her. Either the food was not GF or there was a major cross contamination problem.

She ordered.. Philly cheese steak GF bread

Had read something other say stating that all fries at Cedar Point are cooked in a dedicated fryer because of allergies. Well that doesn't seem to be the case for Melt. They do not have a dedicated fryer. I was going to get a sandwich and fork over the extra $2 for GF bread for a sandwich that was already $16 but then was told I could not have fries or the kettle chips. If I wanted to sub a house salad that was an additional $4! $18 for just a sandwich is ridiculous so I decided to just go with the chicken salad grilled with no croutons. They do not have a gluten free menu just items marked that could be made gluten free with alterations.

Great place! Staff are knowledgeable about GF and cross contamination. My daughter got grilled cheese on GF bread. There’s lots of options for customizing. Fryer is shared so no fries or chips.

My only complaint is the price but otherwise it’s pretty good. They make it very clear which items are gluten free or vegan. You can modify some items on the regular menu for additional options. My wait staff has always taken my allergies seriously and I’ve had no bad experiences so far.
