What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free cornbread (GF cornbread, sometimes noted as made in-house)
- Gluten-free buns for burgers and sandwiches
- Beef ribs, brisket, pulled pork, prime rib, Louisiana sausage, and chicken as GF-safe options (per reports indicating these menu items can be made safe)
- Gluten-free desserts (e.g., chocolate lava divine)
- Fries prepared in a dedicated GF fryer (French fries)
- Gluten-free sauces or items described as GF in most sources (where explicitly noted)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there is inherent cross-contact risk in a mixed-kitchen environment.
- Individual items may vary in safety depending on preparation, with at least one review mentioning gluten in chicken nuggets, highlighting that not every item is guaranteed GF.
- While multiple recent reports emphasize careful handling and dedicated GF fryers, gaps exist where safety depends on staff communication and kitchen execution at the moment of service.
- Parking and crowded conditions can affect timing, which, in turn, can influence the ability to communicate clearly with staff during busy periods.
