Black Sheep Cafe

Server was super knowledgeable for each item on the menu (including drinks, which is rare!), most of which are already GF or can be made so with some alteration--just not the fry bread. The server said the chef was really good about giving special care to food ordered with an allergy noted and I had no problems whatsoever after eating here. Shared frier so the fries aren't guaranteed safe but if you occasionally take your chances by only having a few fries it's absolutely worth it to do so here, the rosemary fries are the best. Dessert options are slim if you dont do dairy but if you do I highly recommend the habanero orange creme brulee.

There is not a separate gluten-free menu, and the items on the menu are not marked gluten-free, but our server was very knowledgeable and helpful. It is a shared fryer, so unfortunately, the fried items are not celiac safe, but there are plenty of delicious gluten-free menu items available.

There was not a separate GF menu, but our waitress was so knowledgeable, obviously trained, and kind. She named each menu item that is already gluten free, volunteered she would mark the allergy on the order and it would be noted in the kitchen, then confirmed the allergy was Celiac and explained that the kitchen staff will also be careful to avoid contamination and switch gloves. I have never had someone volunteer that information before! The food and drinks were delicious.

Really enjoyed eating here! Our waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable about what I could safely eat. She asked if I was concerned about cross contamination and let me know what menu items weren’t safe (no separate fryer so don’t have the fries, tortilla chips, etc)

I ended up getting the grilled chicken sandwich (lettuce wrapped) with grilled zucchini. It was delicious!

Staff knew how handle gluten free so it’s safe for celiacs. They have a separate fryer and are very careful about cross contamination. I ordered a bunch of sides: beans, grilled zucchini and sweet potato fries. Delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wait staff is fairly knowledgeable about gluten free options, but not always about contamination. They can make the burgers with a lettuce wraps and tacos can be made on corn tortillas. They only have one fryer and use it for things with gluten, so it's not free from contamination. Wonderful food!

Celiac friendly?

No

Known for their Navajo tacos (think fried bread/American scone) which is obviously not an option for me. They do have great hamburgers which are normally served on flat bread. I get it without a bun and it is good. They put enough toppings on it and season the meat that it keeps me happy (and I'm a bit picky). They have awesome corn on the cob since the fries aren't an option. Try their pear cactus lemonade.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff is very knowledgeable and most the menu van be made GF. Fresh ingredients and delicious!

Black sheep salad was delicious! Caprese appetizer was also really yummy! Nice wait staff :)
