Excellent burger joint for the allergy challenged and the "I don't have that problem" crowd. This is the best gluten free burger joint I have ever found. You can actually eat the fries if you are Celiac because they pay attention to the oil contamination and don't fry any bread in the dedicated fryer. Delicious fries and always a perfectly cooked burger. I have never had a bad meal at this location. (Other zin burger locations - I can't say the same) Fantasic 5 -start burger joint!
