I love knowing I can safely get a gluten free bun and fries at Red Robin. It’s our go to when I crave a burger. Their seasoning is also gluten free and you can buy a 16 oz container. I use it at home all the time!

The waitress was really nice and the food was really good but I still got sick. I got French fries and a lettuce wrapped burger. They claimed to have had a dedicated fryer but with how quickly I got sick and all this bloating tells me that they weren’t very careful when they brought out my food. I went to a Red Robin in Roseville and didn’t get sick but they also had my plate marked with a gluten free marker and this one didn’t. I just don’t think they took proper preparations with my food here. I wouldn’t go here if you are celiac.

Yes they gave a gf menu and buns, doesn't help when your dinner comes with fried onion sprinkled in. Total cross contamination twice

Generally haven't gone since they stopped printing menus, but family was in town and wanted to go. Big mistake. I was very careful with the waiter, who seemed very knowledgeable. They promised me the fries were all cooked in a dedicated fryer. After eating half of my meal I picked up a fry to find pieces of onion ring underneath it. I've been sick for many days now and I'm probably not done yet.

The waiter was very apologetic, but the manager didn't really seem to care.

So many things wrong but i will say the main entrees were very good. Drinks were beyond bad, they were atrocious. There was no carbination in the soda. Both my wife's and my drinks were flat. My wife then changed her drink and they got it wrong.

They don't have a printed gluten free menu. instead, they hand you an iPad which has allergy information but you need to refer back to the main menu to understand what you're really getting. It's very annoying. Also, some of the menu items that were on the Apple iPad are no longer available, making it further confusing. Red Robin needs to rethink how they handle their gluten free alternatives. I would be embarrassed if I were them.

Piss poor. Don't waste your time or money. They don't have a printed GF menu, only on their iPad, that doesn't work well, or your own cell phone and they don't provide internet. So that's not even easy. Had a non-gluten free French on top of my gluten free bun. Apparently not aware of cross contamination. Also some of the worst overall service in a restaurant ever. Don't go there even if you don't have celiac. It was a ridiculous situation.

Had previously rated them well, but they've decided to eliminate printed menus for GF items at all RR. Went one time and a manager hovered over me as I tried to look at the menu using their ipad to make sure I didn't steal it. Went another, and internet was down so menu couldn't be checked. BTW, I don't get cell reception in the building.

It really is moronic to refuse to offer a menu to a patron.

Excellent service! I ordered a burger on a gluten free bun. The waiter told me when he brought it out that everyone washed their hands and changed their gloves when they made it! Very satisfied!

It is great that they have a GF fryer cause the sweet potato fries were a treat, but the GF bun was dry and the burger was overcooked. The service has been pretty bad both times we've been there - waiters were slow, forgetful and unapologetic about it.

Today I met my mom and dad for lunch! We were greeted by the manager and the waitress Cindy! When my mother asked for a GF menu, the manager tried to get it to load on his tablet but unfortunately the WiFi wasn’t working well. He then helped me through the regular menu and what could be modified. I also have an egg and cauliflower allergy so he helped me to find sauce and dressings that were safe. Cindy was very knowledgeable and even brought me out a fresh ketchup bottle she knew would be safe for me to use! I had a grilled chicken with sautéed mushrooms on a lettuce wrap. They do have a gluten free bun but it had egg whites. I didn’t have a reaction to the food I ate and really enjoyed my meal with my family! 10/10 will eat here again.

honestly the last place i expected to be going as an extremely symptomatic celiac, but i had an amazing experience. the menus in restaurant are not labeled, but they have a very extensive allergy friendly menu online (qr code in restaurant or just look up “red robin allergy menu). this not only allows you to see what is already GF, but what substitutions you could make to make other things GF (also works for other allergens). they have a dedicated GF fryer which was a very pleasant surprise. the staff are very knowledgeable and will help you make safe choices. they have tons of burgers, sandwiches, pizzas, salads, and sides that are/can be GF. the food also comes out with a purple flag to show that it is an allergy

My daughter and I both have Celiac disease and eat here often. We always let the staff know prior to ordering and they have always taken special precautions. They have a dedicated fryer for their fries and offer both gluten free buns and lettuce wraps. Had a wonderful Mother’s Day yesterday and had no problems.

Went well! I assume they used a separate fryer for fries but I can’t be sure, they specified they were gluten free however. Gluten free bun, really nice allergy friendly menu. Only complaint is that my food didn’t have an allergy marker like their menu says they use, but they were reasonably rushed, so it was understandable, and I felt fine afterwards.
