IHOP

So upset and disappointed. My major complaint is the fact that we EXPLICITLY explained that there were members of our party with celiac disease. They claim to have gluten FREE options, not gluten friendly. Gluten free. We had a large party there for a birthday. Our server was great and stated that she also has celiac disease and assured us that she understood the challenge. We thought that would be very much to our benefit. It is very difficult to find a safe place to eat with this disease. Unfortunately my girlfriend got poisoned with gluten. Yes I said poisoned! If you have never experienced what someone goes through having a serious algery to gluten you wont understand the pain and discomfort it causes. There is no cure and nothing lessens the pain it causes. We drove about an hour home and she has been throwing up for hours now. From experience I know that she will be sick for about a week. Again our server was great. Somewhere someone screwed up BAD! This disease is horrible and we are extremely careful about where we eat. We are always relived when someone says you are safe here, or I have it or I completely understand and will take care of you. Unfortunately we will not be back to this location. It is not an option when people you love get sick like this due to someone else's lack of knowledge. Sad because we have had several family functions here in the past.

The food came quick and it was correct. One complaint is that our server greeted us and said he'd be back in a few mins...10 mins later, he took our drink order and food order at the same time. Other than that the service was great and everyone was friendly. The bathroom could be improved, not the best smell. Happy they have gluten free pancakes!
