Review of Red Robin

We are from the UK and discovered Red Robin about 10 years ago which was before our burger restaurants had gf buns. At the time it was explained to me that the fries were gf and the burgers were also safe.

We visited today and I asked for the allergen list just to check everything out. I am also dairy free and was surprised to find there was almost nothing I could eat except steamed broccoli - I couldn't eat the fries!!! And all burgers came with cheese. But I decided to risk it and had a burger with no cheese and fries.

Our server and manager did not understand what was going on.

Closer examination of the allergen menu at my leisure I found that although the fries did not contain dairy there could be cross contamination - I do not understand how this can happen in a dedicated fryer. If they are so concerned about cross contamination why does the brocoli not get contaminated?

The staff were very helpful but they were unable to explain why the allergen menu said I could not eat certain items. They need better training to support the allergen menu.

How confident are you that this establishment takes safety precautions against cross-contact?

— Somewhat
