the Gatlinburg TGIFridays was not ideal for Celiac. wait staff not very knowledgeable about GF and the online menu is not available here. basically a burger - they DID have GF buns but a SHARED fryer (not safe) so NO fries- got broccoli but had to pay extra. was OK

After talking to staff we decided to eat here. Waiter was very accommodating and understood our need when we told him my daughter had celiac. She ate only the sirloin steak and mashed potatoes. No problems with it at all.

our waiter didn’t know what gluten was, so he gave us a bun with gluten. luckily my mom was able to see it was not the bun we ordered, but we were not refunded or even offered another burger with an alternative bun.

I had the burger on a GF bun and it was my best meal of this trip!

Contrary to previous reviews for this location—there is NOT a dedicated fryer for fries! I specifically asked the server and she said everything is fried in the same fryer! So, please disregard the reviews that state otherwise. There was a surprisingly good “gluten friendly” menu, however, with salads, steaks, chicken, and a few sides. I had the sizzling chicken & cheese with mashed potatoes and it was great.

My family and I ate here while on vacation on October 20, 2018. I have a gluten sensitivity, so I have eaten at the Friday's in my hometown, but they do not have a dedicated fryer. Our waitress, Brittany, was awesome! She was super friendly and let me know they had a dedicated fryer for their gluten sensitive guests!. My daughter laughed at me because I was so happy to be able to eat french fries!! I also had the regular cheeseburger on a gluten free bun. It was absolutely wonderful! Can't wait to go back!

I had a great experience there! My 12yo and I have Celiac Disease. I ordered the salmon with super veggies and coleslaw, she ordered the grilled chicken sandwich with a lettuce wrap and mashed potatoes. They were all great tasting, grilled to perfection and you can still get the fries which are fried in a separate fryer and a gf bun. There are many options and our waitress was VERY knowledgeable and patient. Highly recommended!!! Definitely will have to go back.

Ate here on August 10, 2017 while on vacation. The server was very knowledgeable regarding the gluten free options. They have a gluten "sensitive" menu with several salads, burgers with GF buns, and several entrees. Of course, their menu has the "not a gluten free environment" disclaimer like most other restaurants. I have Celiac disease and did not have any issues with their GF food which tasted very good. I would definitely eat at TGIFridays again.

I didn’t get sick, but despite ordering a GF bun on my burger and stressing that I needed to be gluten-free, I was served my burger on a pile of unsafe French Fries. The waiter then walked away, forcing me to flag her down to confirm that I could not, in fact, eat those.

I ate the burger anyway, and they brought me a side of broccoli on the house, but it was definitely a stressful experience.

If you keep walking down the gates of Concourse C, there’s a Shake Shack that has (as of this writing) fewer, but better reviews.

Not a whole lot of options, but the food seems safe. No croutons on the menu and they can do burgers with gf buns.

The waitress said they have cross-contamination, so there isn’t anything gluten-free that can be eaten.
