From taste buds that want sizzlin’ tortillas to taste buds that want grilled steak cooked just right, the Chili’s gluten-free menu will provide anyone who eats gluten-free with a great experience!
All items on the gluten free menu at Chili’s will have been prepared without any gluten-containing ingredients when valid; when prepared in a community kitchen there can be some cross-contact between gluten-containing and gluten-free foods being prepared (Chili’s calls these items “gluten-friendly” since they are not certified gluten-free). Always tell your server about your dietary restrictions, and ask about allergy safe preparation.
What is Gluten?
