As I sit here eating the other half of my meal for leftovers, I have to rave about DJ's. We've driven past it countless times on road trips and always said "we've gotta go" but we finally went and let me tell you I wish we'd tried it sooner. You step inside and you're transported back to the 50s. The staff is so nice, and the food is INCREDIBLE. My husband is gluten free and we were worried there wouldn't be anything for him to eat BUT they have gluten free buns and bread and can make any sandwich or burger gluten free! And he said the bun was actually pretty good, too!! I got the turkey melt and it was to die for. Genius. I'm in heaven right now eating the other half of it. Don't sleep on DJ's!!!

GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS AVAILABLE! (this is very hard to notice on the menu) A small, classy, delicious diner! I love the 50's vibe and walls covered with vintage Coca-Cola paraphernalia. Service was extremely quick and very attentive. Always nearby but gave us time. Prices are great! ~$30 for 2 including 20% tip. And the Knuckle Sandwich burger I got was DELICIOUS. SO good. I got it on a gluten free bun which was also delicious!! I'm not sure what type they get but it was very high quality. I will definitely be back to get the same burger again sometime. My wife got the turkey melt and also loved it! For what it is, this place is 5 stars. Just understand that it's a small 50's style diner. A really delicious, nicely decorated, and welcoming diner. Small-town feel, no micro-brews and micro-greens, no meat-free meats. I expected no gluten free options but they do have them and they are delicious! At any rate I wouldn't take my vegan brother or vegetarian dad here but I'll definitely be back!
