Ruby's Diner

I spoke to the kitchen manager about my specific gluten free needs and they still managed to give me a non-gluten free bun. I feel so sick! Stay away from this place!

Grill is shared. Good luck

Celiac friendly?

No

Ruby's is in John Wayne Airport and offers GF buns. The wait staff was friendly and offered suggestions on how to customize my meal. Very fresh and yummy.

Though my server answered all of my questions and suggested options as the fries are not made in a separate fryer, I got sick immediately after eating here from cross contamination.

They’re not knowledgeable about celiac. The waitress said “My daughter used to have celiac and would get bad hives. But she outgrew it”. When asked if the chili was gluten free, she said “No because it has beef and beans”. She clearly did not know what she was talking about

Ended up playing it safe with the chicken Caesar salad which was surprisingly good.

There is no gluten free menu, and I didn’t ask the servers about gluten free options or cross contamination. But I was able to eat the chili without a reaction, and it was filling and warm.
