What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- French fries (gluten-free) and routinely prepared in a dedicated fryer.
- Meats that are commonly referenced as GF in the GF menu and customer feedback, including brisket, pulled pork, pulled chicken, turkey, and salmon in various reviews.
- Gluten-free sauces (most), with explicit caution to avoid the non-GF option Texas Twang in some reports.
- A dedicated gluten-free menu is available at the counter, and some reviews note that sauces are clearly identified as GF or not.
- Ask for the GF menu and confirm which sauces are GF.
- Confirm fries are cooked in a dedicated GF fryer and that gloves and surfaces are refreshed for your order.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- While the majority of evidence points to careful handling, there are occasional reports of cross-contact or miscommunication, especially when lines get busy.
- A small number of more recent experiences describe illness after consuming GF-ordered items, underscoring that cross-contamination can still occur if orders aren’t managed precisely.
- The restaurant is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility; the safety depends on ongoing staff vigilance, proper communication, and adherence to GF ordering protocols.
