What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Burgers or grilled chicken sandwiches on gluten-free buns (the buns are commonly provided in sealed packaging and warmed separately; ensure the bun is sealed and request clean gloves/utensils).
- Grilled chicken sandwich on a Rotella’s gluten-free bun (when available, prepared with allergy awareness and separate packaging).
- Salads (Garden Fresco, Chicken Cashew, Cranberry Bacon Bleu) with croutons omitted and prepared with clean utensils.
- Steamed broccoli (gluten-free as a side).
- Coleslaw (gluten-free as a side; verify utensils are clean).
- Applesauce (gluten-free and packaged).
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact remains a core concern in general.
- Fryers: shared vs. dedicated fryers vary by location and shift; several recent reports at this location mention dedicated fryers for fries, while others warn of shared fryers. Always ask about the current fryer setup and request fresh oil if possible.
- Grills and prep surfaces: cross-contact is possible when foods share surfaces; staff often note the allergy, change gloves, or separate prep space, but consistency can vary.
- Even with packaged GF buns and marked orders, some customers report instances where the fries or other items may not be fully gluten-free due to oil or equipment sharing. Verifying with a manager or the on-site dietary/allergen guidance before ordering is prudent.
