Only had breakfast. They had GF bread, toasted in the oven to prevent cross contact. Food was good. Slow service.
A diner is a little bit of a scary adventure for a gluten free person. They have a GF menu online and in person, and I planned to order a salad. Then I suddenly ordered a BLT (club) which was a big risk for me personally. The waiter showed me how they toast the gluten free bread on a plate instead of on the rack. I could see it toasting. I chose mashed potatoes as a side with no gravy of course. No issues 12 hours later. I’m feeling great so they did it right. They have a full bar too.
had a gf menu. lots of options for breakfast and lunch/dinner. gluten free buns and bread

We were excited to hear that the kitchen manager is actually celiac so she’s super strict with her staff on cross contamination. My husband enjoyed his gf hamburger! Wish they had gf fries!
The staff was very knowledgeable and asked if I was intolerant or Celiac. I am Celiac and did not have a problem at all. They have a separate GF menu. I had a huge BLT on GF bread (for only $1 more), coleslaw and a pickle. I will be going back for sure.
I have ate here numerous times and have never gotten sick. I have Celiac’s Disease.
Ate breakfast and were very surprised with how good it was. They have a separate gluten free menu with a ton of choices. Waiter was very knowledgeable. We asked if the special of the day was gluten free and he went above and beyond to confirm it was. Food was very good. Would definitely eat there again.
They have a GF menu. They asked if it was a preference or allergy/medical condition. Since I said celiac, they changed gloves and made sure to cut our gf bread with a clean knife in a seperate area. It was very good food. All four of us commented on how fresh the vegetables were in our dishes. My daughter has celiac disease and ordered a burger on gf bun with fresh fruit. I have celiac disease and ordered a vegetable omlet with grits. We had no reactions to the food.
Very respectful and safe with gluten allergies and those with Celiac. They change their gloves all the time, and make sure gluten free orders stay separate from all the other food. Tastes great. They even gave their own gluten free toaster for toast!
First time I’ve been able to actually go into a sandwich diner and have a sandwich that was GF And the sandwich was really good

Metro Diners have a separate “gluten friendly" menu, since they cannot guarantee there will be no cross-contact. There is no dedicated frier, but there are, however, gluten-free toast and buns.
Many gluten free options and the food is always good.
Excellent food, fast service, waitstaff was so happy to accommodate a variety of diets for us including celiac disease with lots of food allergies, a diabetic with food allergies, and a keto diner.
I ordered the chicken salad. The first time they brought out my meal it was obviously not gluten free as it had breaded chicken on it (and they don’t offer gf breaded items). They quickly brought me a new meal and assured me that the whole meal was redone.
Thankfully, I didn’t have any reactions and the salad was tasty.
It’s not hard to get sick here for us at least. Risk of CC seems very high. GF bread for an upcharge. They have a two page GF menu, though cross contamination could obviously be an issue as they have fryers, fried chicken, bread, biscuits, pancakes in the kitchen, and no dedicated GF cooking space. But our waitress told us if you say gluten “allergy” they have a protocol to change gloves, use a heat lamp instead of a toaster to toast bread, will clean the cook area for you, etc. The ketchup isn’t marked GF. Can no longer eat here after getting sick here.
