What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free burger buns (e.g., Udi’s) used when requested or specified for a gluten-free build.
- Fries and similar potato sides prepared in a dedicated/separate fryer.
- Burgers can be prepared bunless (lettuce-wrapped) if desired.
- For many items, the kitchen can adapt to gluten-free needs, though verify the current fryer situation and cross-contamination precautions at the counter when ordering.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- There is at least some evidence that certain fryers may share with gluten-containing items, depending on the day or item. If you are extremely sensitive, confirm which fries or sides are in a dedicated fryer on that visit.
- While many diners report strong safety practices, a few older experiences note variability in outcomes. Given recency, expect better consistency but still communicate clearly about your gluten-free needs and ask about kitchen steps (glove changes, grill cleaning, and dedicated surfaces) before ordering.
