Not a great place if you have celiac disease. We have been visiting this restaurant for a while and didn't have issues until recently. The last visit I was sick afterwards from what I assume was cross contamination. We tried again today stressing that I have celiac disease. After making some modifications to the meal (which was marked as a gluten free option) and being assured everything would be ok as they have a celiac button that alerts the kitchen I was brought a burger that had a fried onion topping and the burger itself was fried (they do not have a dedicated gluten free fryer). I sent the meal back telling the server it wasn't safe after he kept telling me it was. He came back and confirmed it was not safe. When the manager came over to check on us 15 minutes later he offered to make me a salad with no protein to make up for it since that's faster. Anyway long story short not all the staff is trained on cross contamination or food allergies for that matter. Eat at your own risk...

Great little place with gluten free Mac and Cheese options. The rest of the menu looked great, but I was there to try the mac and cheese and it didn't disappoint!

A great place to stop on our 3 hour drive back to Jersey from DC. Food came out right away. My husband had the meatloaf and said it was the best meatloaf he's ever had. I had the Philly cheesesteak on a gluten free bun (which btw thank you soo much for having gluten free buns!!!) Alexis was very nice. She checked on us regularly. Will come back on our next road trip soon!

fantastic options for building bowls like chipotle but with more interesting options- mushrooms, pepperjack cheese, pineapple salsa, and lots of sauces to choose from. very knowledgeable and careful with gluten free accommodations, not just changing gloves but pulling out a new bin of cheese to make sure my cheese wasn't contaminated!

Queso and salsa are my favorites, and the corn enchiladas don't bother my coeliac. Winning!! Good food😋
