Had a single smash burger with Udi’s bun and it was good. However, I was a little suspicious of the website and others sites claiming fries had a dedicated fryer. I decided to use my Nima sensor on the sweet potato fries and they tested positive- gluten found. I’m so happy I had the Nima with me, it saved the day. Could’ve tested positive for cross contamination even with a dedicated fryer but who knows…

Take away is that it is safer to get a burger. I would’ve tested the burger patties too but only had 1 capsule.

Most likely won’t return…trying to weed out restaurants that claim to be safe and aren’t.

Staff very knowledgeable front staff went to back to help make order to make sure it was done right. Dedicated gf fryer. And a spot on the grill to toast gf buns where no regular buns go.

Some of the staff members didn’t seem very knowledgeable about the menu, I was able to get a gf bun and the fries had a dedicated fryer. All in all it’s ok in a pinch but there is better in the area

Very tasty burgers with gluten free buns - as noted, it is a $2 up charge which I don’t love, but grateful to have a gf option. The fries and smash tots with rosemary and garlic are also gf and delish! They were very helpful with our order.

Good burger and safe fries. I think a $2 upcharge for the gf bun is absurd but what can you do? They also have dairy-free shakes that are very good although a little unusual.
