They have gluten free options yes . Depending how knowledgeable the staff member you talk to is , they do know about the gluten content of their food options . However they don’t seem to have any awareness of cross contamination whatsoever . I took my chances and had good luck here quite a few times . But last visit I ordered a gluten free bun and it looked different than usual . They swore it was gluten free and I stupidly ate it. AND sick as a dog after . Clearly they just put a regular bun and lied. I tried one last time the other day and the food took forever , was cold AND although the gluten free bun looked correct this time , I got sick again . Cross contamination I guess . I like the food and I’ve wanted to be able to enjoy it but it’s just one too many times getting sick to keep going there . No more .

I would say don’t eat there if you are celiac or gluten intolerance or allergic .

They make zero effort whatsoever to prepare food separately and told me they won't even have the chef change their gloves. They have gf menu items, but none of them are actually gluten free due to enormous cross contamination. Do not ever eat here if you have celiac.

They have identified gluten free options, but there is absolutely no attempt made to avoid cross contamination. There are a few pre-packaged items which are labeled gluten free.

The food was great, the folks working there were 100 percent aware of what went into the food, how it was prepared and if there was a GFO. The menu was clearly labeled, and I didn't once worry about something going wrong, or being mislabeled.

I have had good luck here in the past. Gluten free options and staff is helpful in answering questions . Today something went terribly wrong and the all night agony of stomach clenching and other terribles ( you all know what I mean ) has begun . I’ve had their gluten free bun successfully many times. This time I had FRIES . I’ve never ordered them before . I read another review saying they have a dedicated fryer for the fries so I didn’t ask and felt like I would be ok. However they do offer onion rings and breaded chicken pieces so I should have confirmed about a dedicated fryer. All I know is I am sick right now so bad that this is weeks to get back on track ahead of me. Definite cross contamination / gluten and or their fries are a composite potato product that itself is not gluten free even if the fryer is . Sometimes even the staff wouldn’t know that . I can tell you this , 12 years of gluten free life and it’s almost always French fries that will do you in . . Misery !!! Ask TONS of questions and ask them to change their gloves . And I would say , do NOT ORDER THE FRIES .
