What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Most meats are gluten-free, and several reviewers note that meats can be prepared without gluten-containing sauces.
- Gluten-free buns are available for sandwiches (substitution mentioned).
- Salads such as the Bama Brisket Salad are described as gluten-free.
- A number of sides are cited as gluten-free (e.g., potato salad, collard greens) though some sides or sauces may carry risk depending on preparation.
- It’s common for sauces to be gluten-free, with several explicitly noted as GF (though not all sauces are guaranteed GF).
- Notify staff you have celiac disease and ask what items are prepared in separate areas or with dedicated utensils.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Shared fryers are a recurring concern; some reviews indicate fries and other fried items may be prepared in a shared fryer.
- One or more sauces are known to contain gluten (beer or beer-derived ingredients in at least one sauce).
- While many guests report safe experiences, other diners have raised concerns about cross-contamination practices or limited GF offerings, implying that risk may vary by item and kitchen workflow.
- A substantial portion of recent feedback emphasizes staff knowledge and proactive precautions, but the presence of mixed reports means there is no absolute guarantee for every order.
