Ordered a gluten-free waffle and a normal waffle to-go today, and they didn't even label the boxs. When we got there, they ignored us

I am gluten free and dairy free. They have a few options for me. I got the shrimp meal. It was good. But their margaritas and drinks are amazing! They have an amazing selection of cocktail drinks. The service is great! Love the atmosphere, it feels modern and fancy, but you don’t have to dress fancy.

Red Robin is always a great experience for us! My husband and I took my friend to lunch on this occasion. She had the monster burger on gluten-free bun and garlic fries. I had the shroom burger and sweet potato fries and coffee. My husband had some sort of hot spicy burger and garlic fries and coffee. Our server Michelle was very personable and answered all our questions. The manager asked us how we were doing. The three of us enjoyed our lunch.

A delicious spot with excellent vegan and gluten free options! We had the Buena dia burrito, the vegan breakfast sandwich with gluten free bread, two Dude's donuts (Homer, churro), and the French press coffee. All of it was exceptional! The dairy free butter spread on the breakfast sandwich was a huge hit.

Great spot for delicious seafood. We had the crab dip, blackened rockfish, and mahi tacos with the boathouse margaritas. The service was efficient, friendly, and faster than expected, especially on a holiday. The drinks are great and well crafted. The menu clearly identified gluten-free options, so it was easy to order. They have gluten-free buns, so you can enjoy the dips even with a gluten allergy.

Look the food was decent and the wait staff was great. With that said, I probably will not be back. It was comical how awful the gluten-free bun was here. Two bites in and it had completely disintegrated around my fingers and I was left holding bun crumbs and my chicken grilled patty on one side and pickles on the other. It was lunch time but the place was not very crowded at first glance. You walk in in the kitchens on your right and some seating on the left. The bar is in the back and that seems to be where everybody prefers to sit but it's out of sight from the door and I wondered slowly to the back before I realized who was even working there other than the people in the kitchen. It was just confusing not knowing or being able to see where anybody was from the door. Lastly, they upcharge for everything. Getting a side salad instead of fries was an upcharge Even though the fries have gluten on them. The bun was enough charge which I'm used to but then paying for a credit card was also an upcharge of 4%.
