Next Door American Eatery

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!

Almost everything on the menu is GF! The wait staff was super knowledgeable and made sure to make notes when ordering. They also have a gf menu for kids! It was so nice to have a GF family dinner out.

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.

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.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac's beware of old reviews, they no longer have a dedicated flyer and basically gave up trying to offer true gluten free options. We use to come here often as the staff were educated and happy to help guide you through your options. My son got sick on our last 2 visits from servers not being honest or not knowing what's truly GF.

Celiac friendly?

No

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.
