Not much on the menu that they are willing to guarantee will be GF except for some so-so corn pancakes and basic egg dishes. Waitress seemed kind of irritated at having to serve GF customers and basically just said everything is cross contaminated. No GF bread or anything like that. Would probably not go back.

The menu isn't labeled GF. I ordered eggs and hashbrowns. The waitress was knowledgeable about cross contamination and informed me they only had 1 fryer before I asked. Food was okay.

Everything has cross contamination. Even the marked gluten free items are prone to it. Not safe for celiac or sensitive to gluten.

Had breakfast here two days in a row. Not many items are labeled gluten free but the staff is very knowledgeable and can make many menu items gluten free by holding the toast. Melissa took great care of us and the Scary Uncle Sully omelette is out of this world.

Agree with the other reviewers that the staff was irritable and said that GF options couldn't be verified, and the GF options I did try weren't very good. Ok omelette per my boyfriend, good coffee. Wouldn't go back.

I had the huevos rancheros, gluten free as stated on the menu and was glutened. I wouldn't trust this place if you are Celiac.

I am giving them 3 stars because the person who was about to seat us told me I wouldn't be safe or happy eating here. She said they are not able to accommodate celiac. I appreciated the honesty and went elsewhere. I do not think every restaurant must accommodate and understand that some kitchens are too small and busy to be safe.
