Next Door American Eatery

Waitress didn’t know anything about the menu being gluten free. Had to keep going back to the kitchen to ask. Not a separate fryer so chips are not actually gluten free. Portions are small. Had beef barbacoa tacos, flavor was okay.

I have been here a couple of times and eaten different items. I always specify that I have Celiac and they are extra careful about cross-contamination and the food is great!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered hummus marked gluten free and chicken bites marked gluten free. Started to feel bad, I asked again to confirm if they are gluten free. She said yes they have no gluten in them but are made in a shared fryer 😫 containing gluten ingredients. I usually ask this before ordering but was overly confident in the abundance of gluten free items on the menu that were fried, I was never at a place that marked them GF and used the same fryer. Lesson learned

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was very educated about GF and cross-contamination. There were many GF options on the menu. I had a burger on a GF bun with honey sriracha sauce and pineapple that was out of this world! Highly recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We told the server I was celiac and my daughter is gluten intolerant. He seemed very educated. Then our daughter was brought a regular grilled cheese. They corrected it. Then brought a different desert than we ordered. Supposedly gluten free. But, at this point I was nervous and couldn’t relax.

Went there for lunch with our daughters (2 have celiac). Their menu clearly states what can be prepared GF. The server explained how our GF meals would be prepared vs the gluten containing ones. The burgers were amazing! We also got GF ice cream sandwiches, which were ice cream between two soft, chewy, delicious GF chocolate chip cookies. Our girls experienced no cross contamination and we all had a great meal. We'd definitely go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Awesome! Barb, our server talked to me about how my son’s meal would be prepared since he has celiac disease. Tons of GF options-even things that usually aren’t-like chicken fingers. All of my kids loved this place, which is rare. They have board games and pop comes in glass bottles, which they thought was awesome. Prices are not astronomical, but this was definitely considered a treat for us. We will be back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The server was very knowledgeable about gluten and corrected himself when he referred to it as an allergy. Not only did he list my safer options, he explained why they were safer options. Menu is marked GF and GFO. Vegan options available too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They do a great job with food allergies and are very knowledgeable. They also offer food that isn’t normally “gluten free,” which is always special for us. They have a spicy, crispy shrimp bowl that is awesome.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was amazing. I mentioned I was celiac and, even on an extremely busy night, the chef came out to talk to me about a very minor concern on one ingredient he wasn't sure about. The fryer does have gluten ingredients on Tuesday and Friday for their specials, but they are cleaned thoroughly at the end of every day. I'm not sure I have ever felt more welcomed and respected at a restaurant. And the food was FANTASTIC.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

No dedicated fryer anymore, as all oil is run through a shared filter :( I got the mushroom tacos and they were good but the portion was very small for the price.

We went here for my sons birthday looking forward to having some gluten free food and we are lucky our waiter was so knowledgeable. He said that they have a separate fryer but the oil is filtered through the gluten fryer at the end of the night. He said if you are super sensitive, stay away from the fries and chips even though they say they are GF. We thought it was a safe risk... it was not. Not their fault at all but we want everyone to know we wouldn’t consider this a super celiac safe restaurant!

I love this place is amazing. They have wonderful food. The bartender Brett is fantastic. The food is incredible. For someone with celiac is a really hard to find a place that I can eat and still bring my friends that eat normal, where everyone is happy. I highly recommend this place.
