A good burger with a specially wrapped GF bun. Fries are not GF, but it is a good place for a burger and Diet Coke. Haven’t had any reaction.

Delicious burgers. We are very sensitive to cross contamination and have never been sick here. They clean a space for your burger, lie down foil, change gloves, and notify staff to ensure that your food is safe. They have the BEST gf buns!

Review
They use the same grill and friers for all food, but the waiter was very knowledgeable and told me that right away!
I ordered a burger with a gluten free bun and it was delicious! I didn’t get sick but they don’t have a dedicated grill or frier for their food. The waiter was knowledgeable about gluten and told me it was all shared spaces!

Review
Just because this restaurant offers a gluten free bun option, it does not mean it is a safe place to eat. There is a high risk for cross contamination. The staff told me that the heat burns the gluten off the grill. It is not a Celiac or gluten free friendly restaurant.
Review
The burgers are good and the Gluten Free Buns have a good flavor. The buns are wrapped so there is less chance of cross contamination.
