If you are sensitive at all to cross contamination, I would personally not recommend this to you. It’s a buffet style set up and when we asked they could not tell us which toppings were GF.

It looks delicious and if you aren’t GF it’s probably a great spot though.

It was fine for something quick, but cross contamination appears to be highly likely and the food just wasn’t that great.

Fast casual Mac and cheese and panini restaurant. Gluten free options for both bread and pasta. They take serious precautions to prevent cross contamination and know which add ons have gluten.

I felt fine after the meal. The food itself is okay, not great.

They have great GF penne pasta and GF bread. Everyone was knowledgeable about what contained gluten and the menu was marked. The owner was who took my order and she asked me about what my favorite bread was cause she wants to have the best bread. I didn’t have any problems. Would recommend to anyone GF (I am not celiac).

I had been wanting to try them forever, but wasn't sure if it would be safe or accomodating. I'm so glad I finally did. They have several different gluten free and vegan options. It hit spots I didn't know I had!

I started to ask about clean utensils and the staff informed me that they take precautious. The gluten free noodles (taste like barilla penne pasta) are cooked in their own pot and drained with their own colander. The gf noodles are also in a dedicated container that is covered to help minimize cross-contamination. The cheese sauce is delicious AND gf!

I loved being able to have Mac ‘n’ cheese at a restaurant and not be worried. I definitely recommend coming!!!

*note it is placed in the little conveyor oven with other non-gf so just ask staff about precautions

As far as GF options go, there are few options. If you go for the Mac N Cheese, like we did, the cheese sauce is thickened with flour, so not GF and the other options aren’t what we were looking for in a Mac N Cheese. The GF noodles were crunchy. We went in excited to try a new place and were let down. They do offer GF bread for a grilled cheese, however, we did not try that.

This is the best gf mac and cheese I’ve ever gotten. I got the Buffalo chicken mac and cheese with grilled chicken and added pickles and jalapeños. It was so good I was nervous I got regular noodles. I had no reaction and it was super fast.

Owners are soooo nice! They cooked the Mac and cheese in a separate area, and told us they took precautions for gluten free. They were a really friendly family and the food, both gluten and gluten free, was great!

I got glutened here! i asked them to change their gloves and they were happy to do so but while i wasn’t looking i believe they mixed my bowl with the same spatula used on other ones and i’m not sure if they have a separate one available or not. if you are more on top of it than me you’ll probably be fine and it was good food but not at all worth the amount of pain i am currently in. i wouldn’t go again because the chance of this happening again is very present.
