What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Burgers served on gluten-free buns, or as lettuce-wrapped burgers
- Fries prepared in a dedicated gluten-free fryer (when requested)
- Gluten-free buns available for burgers
- Lettuce-wrapped burger options as an alternative to a bun
- Items identified as gluten-free via online/allergen tablet interfaces
- Salads prepared without croutons (when chosen with GF toppings), as noted by some diners
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contamination remains a potential risk, especially if instructions aren’t followed consistently.
- Success hinges on clear communication with your server, use of the allergen tool, and confirmation that GF preparation steps (glove changes, separate prep areas, etc.) are followed for your order.
- Some diners have reported experiences where mistakes occurred (e.g., incorrect buns or cross-contact on sauces) which underscores the importance of asking questions and double-checking at the table.
- Overall, the frequent use of dedicated GF fryers, GF buns, and evident staff training aimed at preventing cross-contact contribute to a high level of safety, particularly when you actively engage the allergen program and request specific precautions.
