Anybody done any research with this restaraunt? My office buddies really like to eat here.

I have eaten there a couple of times. I always get a salad as I can stand right there and watch them make it. I make sure the bowl is clean and she has on fresh gloves and I use my own dressing. It's not my top choice as I still worry about cross contamination there. I usually get the salmon as I don't know if the chicken has been marinated. I've gotten it with both the field greens and with the spinach and strawberries. I have not however, gotten sick except for the first time when I used their balsamic vinegrette.

Thanks. Was the salmon in the salad or is that another entree all together? I'm can bring my own dressing that is a no brainer. We just always have one person who wants to eat here and I always decline. Maybe I'll give it a try next time.

Thx for the help.

Next time you go ask them what's in the Tomatoe Basil soup. Usually its made with heavy whipping cream and tomatoes.

They have the salmon separate in a foil package that they put on top of your salad. Same with the chicken. I used to eat there all the time before I was diagnosed. Their bread is awesome and their Napoleons.....Fond memories.

Thanks for the info. I will go tomorrow and check out the tomato basil soup and order a salad with salmon and bring my own dressing. I'll report in tomorrow night! Thanks for all the help.

I used to love to eat there too before I was DX... they had the best bread! Oh and the French Onion Soup!!! Divine!

My brother (who also has celiac disease) was a manager here for awhile. He said they didn't really have anything gluten-free, although he's not much of a salad eater. He brought his lunch to work.
