Not many gluten free meal options and only 3 cheesecake options. Definitely not the safest option but very good if you are willing to risk it.

Review
Fryer is NOT dedicated gluten free—they stated it’s supposed to be, but during busy times they use it for gluten containing items. I was able to get a bacon burger and instead of fries was able to get a very good Caesar salad. I made sure to stress the importance of no cross contamination to my server who shared it with the cooks and supervisor to keep an eye on the process.

Review
Had the cheese burger on a GF bun without special sauce and was pleasantly surprised that they have a fryer for fries only! Also got a slice of GF cheese cake. Had no issues. I am a celiac and usually, when I swallow get nauseous after swallowing if I get a crumb of gluten! Will go back! Of course, I explained how careful they needed to be.

Update: confirmed that the fryer is NOT dedicated GF. During busy times, they will fry gluten containing items in the French fry fryer.

I ordered the green salsa chicken enchiladas (they are made with corn tortillas), which came with a side of rice and beans. It was delicious!

Review
I have several allergies including gluten. I am not Coeliac but very sensitive to gluten so this is not a gluten- free kitchen. The waitress was knowledgeable and ensured my burger was prepared separately. She went through all the ingredients and advised accordingly. It was a real treat as I struggled during my holiday with my food allergies.

Glutenized.. sick for days.
Although the waiter confirmed gluten free for my salad, it had to have been cross contaminated
