Cheesecake Factory Gluten free menu
The Cheesecake factory has many gluten free options, for example, a lot of the pasta dishes and burgers can be made gluten free by request. Each restaurant will have different standards when it comes to serving gluten free food and may not be suitable if you are celiac or sensitive to gluten.
Tips for eating safely at The Cheesecake Factory:
- Inform your server that you are gluten free before ordering
- Ask if they use a shared fryer for other dishes that contain gluten
- Do they reuse pasta water used for cooking regular pasta
- Ask if they prepare gluten free options separately
- Do they change gloves and use separate utensils for preparing gluten free food
- Is the gluten free food stored or displayed with food that contains gluten
These are just some thoughts to consider before eating at any restaurant as some may advertise that they have gluten-free options but cross-contamination is always a risk when food that contains gluten is also served but we want to minimize this possibility to prevent getting sick.
