They have GF buns, but we were told “There’s going to be cross contamination in a place like this.” This may work for an intolerance, but definitely not Celiac friendly.

Celiac friendly?

No

Was told very rudely by a worker that only the bread was gluten free but none of the meals. Do not recommend this... didn't appreciate getting such a terse response to my question of whether the whole meal was gluten free.

Excellent sandwiches. Knowledgeable staff. Asked about changing gloves and made sure we knew cheez whiz had gluten. It was delicious!

Enjoyed the cheesesteak! Staff told me the fryer is not dedicated and the fries are not safe for celiac.

Just ok. Not super flavorful and bun was just all right.

The staff was great and so was the cheesesteak!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great sandwich. $3 extra for GF bread.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Had a loaded cheesesteak with provolone cheese on a GF roll and fries (dedicated fryer). Delicious, but about 30% smaller than a standard cheesesteak - not that I’m quibbling, mind you.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Perfect authentic beef and chicken cheese steaks. Fries are unfortunately not GF, but honestly the sandwiches themselves are so rich you don’t need them. Quite knowledgeable about cc. I recommend this place to experience true Philly culture in terms of food!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very knowledgeable about cross-contamination, and even knew the Whiz wasn't gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Never had a cheesesteak until the other night. Had 30 mins between coming from a movie and seeing another so I called ahead and placed my order while I walked over. Was tasty. Ended up coming back later that night for another.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Super delicious, amazing find, GF friendly, rolls and understand of celiac! Hopefully the fries will be GF soon!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Best gluten-free cheese steak in Philly. I wish their fries we’re gluten-free too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I am so PISSED at this place. Never in my life have I experienced such rude behavior from the workers! I was trying to order and I asked if the pizza burger was gluten free. She said “I think” I then asked her if there was someone she could ask just to make sure. She rolled her eyes, give me a dirty look, then walked away into the employee room slammed a the door. She then walked out and slammed the door again and hugged and puffed as she walked to me in a mad and mean away. Then said “no you can only have bread” as she rolled her eyes. I am so upset. That is NOT away to treat a customer!!!!

Amazing GF Philly Cheese steak. It was packed after the 4th parade but definately worth the wait. Go here!!! Yum!

So good. We felt blessed to get to experience a philly steak and cheese. I was worried about contamination, but none of us 3 celiacs had any issue. We tried the three different cheeses (whiz, provolone, and mozzarella ) and all the toppings. Sandwiches were amazing!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

You guys have the best gluten free steak and cheese subs we have EVER had. So grateful to have stumbled upon your restaurant a few weeks ago. The waitstaff was super friendly and knowledgeable and went out of their way to make sure everything would not be Cross contaminated. Wish you had a spot in Boston!!!

Fulfilled my steak and cheese cravings like woah! 😍

So good! My first Philly cheese steak and so good. The bread is unbelievable! I was worried I'd get sick, it was that legit! Celiac and did not get sick. Seems sketchy but they are careful

Woman at register was lovely! GF buns were terrific! The cheesesteak was great! No tummy ache!!!

They offer GF buns from Taffet's bakery. My girlfriend (that has celiac) has it frequently and doesn't have any reactions. They seem to do a good job separating the GF sandwiches from the others.

Prior to having GF buns, we noticed they have a seemingly dedicated fryer for the French fries, and they never caused a reaction. This place is awesome!
