I called and spoke to the manager. He said all they have is GF bread beyond that you are on your own. He said they are NOT safe for any strict Gluten Free requirements. Fryers are cross contaminated with onion rings and other breaded items. Cross contamination is huge risk. Told me to go somewhere else.

I got a double samburger with a gluten-free bun (love their GF buns!). I’ve been here a few times over the past year. The first time they told me the fries were gluten-free but when I asked today they said the fries are made in a shared fryer :( But, the burgers are really good & when I told them I had celiac they said they will change gloves when preparing my food.

I was looking forward to having fries, but was told they didn't have a dedicated fryer that day (they had already fried something with breading in it). Knowing this, I don't think I'd ever consider the fries to be safe. I ended up just having a hamburger which was kind of pricey after adding the $1.50 charge for the gluten free bun. The bun was really good, but otherwise I was underwhelmed.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food! Got a turkey burger with a gf bun and fries! Staff is knowledgeable and the staff are hay took my order had celiac and was able to make recommendations!
