Server was careful about gf. Mustard crusted chicken sandwich was okay, but the gluten free rolls for appetizer and with the sandwich were the best I’ve ever had!
Good food. Ordered the salmon and green bean and rice with quinoa. It was yummy. I did not get sick. I was worried the rice was seasoned with something but I think it was butter and I’m not used to seasoning. Anyway, good meal.
Although they have a gluten free menu, they have a statement on the top that states they do not have a dedicated gluten free prep area in the kitchen and can't guarantee that cross contamination will not occur.

Twice now, I’ve been served gluten at this location. First, a burger with a gluten roll (make sure your roll has small pieces of onion, which is the GF version) and second I suspect was the pasta in the pasta al for no. Either the pasta wasn’t GF or it was cooked in the standard pasta water. They have GF options but I think they can be sloppy on the follow through. Days of suffering result!
Able to order gluten free and dairy free easily. Wait staff know what questions to ask and clarify if there are any questions regarding your allergy. Complimentary gluten free roll and oil (make sure to request without parm if dairy free) available! Food is always delicious!
Great gluten free menu. Food was great we go here often.
Joe’s has an extensive GF menu, GF bread and GF rolls (both caramelized onion), and GF pasta, however, depending on the wait staff and how busy it is, you need to be careful to ensure you meal is actually prepared GF. I have had a few instances where I have asked the staff who delivers my meal if it is both GF/DF and they were unsure about one or both allergens. Ultimately, an awesome menu but you need to be proactive about advocating for yourself.
Staff is trained and very knowledgeable. Great food and atmosphere. GF food is amazing!
Amazing food! I'm celiac and RARELY have this many options! Separate menu with some many things to choose from - even dessert! The service was super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Atmosphere/decor is cool as well. DEFINITELY will be coming back!
Our waitress Ashley was so attentive and nice. Totally ask for her! The GF rolls were amazing! No joke amazing! And the GF menu had a lot of options. I got the chicken caprese it was phenomenal. There was so much of it I took half of it home for dinner!
Gluten free experience started at the door where they asked if we wanted a gluten free menu unprompted. The menu is extensive and full of "normal" items. The wait staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. The gluten free bread is phenomenal.
The food was exceptionally great! The gluten free menu was awesome. So many choices. I had the chicken piccata served over pasta. oooh, it was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant!
Extensive GF menu, fast service and my husband loved the GF roll and separate dipping sauce! Highly recommend.
amazing menu, you feel like a person when you eat here. love the bass dip
Separate menu, gluten free beer, and even got gluten free bread and dipping oil!
They have a very extensive gluten free menu. They even provide a separate dipping plate and a warmed gf bun for dipping. I told the server I felt like I was a person, not a pariah.
Wonderful place to eat, great chain. Never have a problem at any of their locations. Knowledgable staff, large menu and what other restaurant serves you gf bread before the meal.
Lengthy gluten free menu. They bring you a gf roll and separate dipping oil. Knowledgeable staff and accommodating. They say the carrot cake is amazing, but I haven't had it.
We stopped here for lunch while traveling. They have a full gf menu which they automatically give to every table. They have one of the tastiest gf rolls I've ever had, from a gf bakery in Boston (La Marca and Sons). I had the Vietnamese Salmon--grilled fillet of salmon cooked to order, citrus-infused broth, rice noodles, and crisp steamed vegetables. Very tasty! The wait staff is wonderful as well. Highly recommended.

Great GF menu
Great options for GF meals. I am also sensitive to sugar, but found many meals to choose from. Had the Herb Encrusted Haddock. They also served GF rolls with my own dipping sauce!
The menu indicates gluten friendly and has the disclaimer that it is a shared kitchen. Our server said they do try to keep the GF food separate (and a different person did bring out my meal and say it was gluten sensitive).
That being said, I have mixed reviews. The server offered me GF rolls and I said yes. They were absolutely amazing. They were warm and the oil dipping sauce was incredible. The server did not say that they cost extra and we were charged for them.
The menu is varied but there are not a ton of GF options. No dedicated fryer so no fries. I went with the chicken piccata and it was eh. The pasta was definitely GF (little, hard GF tasting spirals). The chicken had that hard, rubbery stuff running through it (tendons?). I made a comment to the server and the response was some chicken is like that. I didn't even finish it because it was gross and eating pieces of hard rubber isn't appetizing.
No apology for the gross meal (I wasn't expecting anything but an apology or empathy would have been appropriate).
So I'd go back for the GF rolls and oil (knowing that's an added cost) but probably not the rest of the menu.
Menu was clearly marked. I got GF Mac n cheese with BBQ pork. For a very minimal upcharge I got GF rolls that were absolutely delicious!
They offer gluten sensitive not gluten free, I think this is gluten free products but no guarantee of cross contamination. Good selection marked on the menu and also some GF beers to choose from. Server wasn’t confident but it was a quiet lunchtime so we had time to ask questions. Food was okay nothing amazing
