Second time I ended up sick at this establishment. Ordered gluten free, started with salad. Third bite discovered small bits of croutons all through the salad. They must have just picked the larger pieces off. Ended up getting sick in the parking lot.NOT OK.

They have a dedicated gluten free menu and we ordered the ribs and sides. The waitress also noted that we were gluten free on her order form. My husband found breaded fried bits in his brussel sprouts so we asked if our waitress could confirm with the cook that the sprouts are in fact GF. She came back to report that they are fried in a dedicated frier with the French fries and are GF however we noticed that the fries were not on the GF menu so we decided to stop eating the sprouts. Unfortunately we both got very sick with symptoms after eating here.

For a chain restaurant they are great. Up front about the possibility of cross contamination. But they are very careful. They have a gluten free menu,you just have to ask. And if it is on there menu and it can be made gluten free with just a few changes, they'll make it for you

I had the chili and the mashed potatoes because I wasn’t really feeling a steak that day. Gluten free menu is available but with somewhat limited choices if you don’t feel like having steak.

Horrible, will not go back

Had a GF menu but half the things on the menu were no longer available. Had to repeat gf salad order twice and it was still brought out wrong. Waiter could have cared less.

I ordered the gluten free Shrimp and Steak combo. it's only GF when the shrimp are not placed on a piece of toast.

My dinner arrived with the Shrimp on toast. I asked to check if the toast was GF. The server returned with a small plate stating the toast contained gluten and offered to remove the piece of toast or the shrimp and toast.

I explained that they had to remake the meal which they did.

Therefore, beware when eating here. The staff is not properly trained!!
