Red Robin is my go to place when I have a taste for a cheese burger. My wife and I have eaten there a minimum of ten times since my diagnosis of severe gluten allergy. She gets a cheese burger and I get a gluten free cheese burger. Their fries are great! They have earned all five stars each time we dine there.

I have celiac and I was terribly sick for two days after eating a simple cheeseburger on a “gluten free” bun. My side was plain broccoli. I WILL NEVER SET FOOT IN A RED ROBIN AGAIN. IF YOU ARE CELIAC DO NOT TRUST THIS RESTAURANT!!!!!!!

Server was knowledgeable about gluten free items. Explained how the fries were cooked in separate fryer. Made sure to mark my food on the mini order pad as gluten  allergy.

I’ve been here before and explained my celiac .....they would put a purple ‘pick’ in the fries. Tonight I asked for fries gluten free. The first basket was ok. The second basket had the taste of onions, which I’m guess the fries came from the same fryer the breaded onion rings came from ☹

One of our favorite picks in Plainfield for GF. They have GF buns and the best lettuce wrapped burgers. Frier for fries are also separate so no cross contamination

Despite their advertising they do nothing to assist the gluten allergic patron. On top of that they argued with us as to our needs. Stay far away from this place.

We called ahead and the staff was extremely unhelpful and gave mixed information. They argued with me when I told them what their site stated. I would not risk it.

My first time at a Red Robin and I loved it! Had a burger and fries (gluten free) and they came with a little purple stick in it to indicate gluten allergy. Waitress was wonderful! (They also have pretty good ranch)

Notified server GF, ALLERGY. Ordered a burger GF bun. Fine until I quickly remembered that it had steak sauce on it ISN’T GF. After asking this server about it, he didn’t know so he wouldn’t ask the chef and he didn’t know so he sent the bottle out to me. It clearly states that it has barley vinegar in the ingredients. Seriously disappointing that the kitchen staff is preparing “gluten-free food” and they have no idea what has or doesn’t have gluten in it.

Nice way to ruin the end of my trip. And will be sick for the next couple of weeks.

Always a reliable choice. Red Robin's online allergen menu is extremely helpful and in-depth, symptomatic celiac been coming here for many years and never had a problem. It's not fine dining or anything but it's about as good as it gets for a huge chain restaurant like this.
