Everything is gluten free which was amazing, I didn't have to worry about only getting to choose from two items on the menu. The salsa options were a bit odd, there was a cheese/yogurt type dip among the four they give you and it just didn't fit with the Latino flavors well, it was more Mediterranean in taste. Definitely pricier for how much food you get but the chips are a free refill. When I asked about diet pop options I was told they didn't have any but they have what appeared to be a full bar with a fountain pop sprayer (which normally would have at least one diet option). The only thing I could have to drink was water there (I'm a type one diabetic and regular pop is a bad situation).

Molly's is a fun bakery with an industrial atmosphere that makes delicious treats. My wife is Celiac, and their gluten-free wedding cake and cupcakes pleased every guest! They were surprised to know it was gluten-free, and not a single cupcake was left over. To top it off, Molly's gave us a free little cake for our one year anniversary. Thank you, Molly's!

Amazing! Probably the best dang burger I've ever had... the lil' Elvis and the phenomenal dirt balls were the icing on the cake. Gluten-free bun also available. I'd rate this more than 5 stars if it was possible.

Update: Mike Larsen contacted me several times to apologize, get feedback, and to locate the record of the sale. The meal bill was fully refunded. He said he spoke with his people to improve the experience. Everyplace can have an off night. I would give them another chance. Original review: Poor service, got the order wrong, sandwich was sparsely covered with contents making it mostly stale bread, salad dressing wasn't mixed, salad had wonton stips which are not Gluten-free even though the order was for Gluten-free. Expensive meal we threw away and went elsewhere to eat.
