Chili’s Gluten-Free Menu 2025: Your Complete Guide

Chili’s Grill & Bar isn’t just about sizzling fajitas and loaded burgers; they’ve got a solid gluten-free menu for those who need it. If you’re someone who has to dodge gluten like it’s a bad ex, Chili’s makes it easier to eat out without stressing.

They’ve got a whole list of dishes you can order without worrying about hidden wheat, barley, or rye sneaking into your meal. But, heads up, they’re not claiming to be 100% gluten-free (no restaurant really can), so there’s always a small risk of cross-contamination.

Still, they’ve got options, and they’re pretty good about it if you let them know your needs. Let’s break it down so you can plan your next meal like a pro.

What’s Gluten, Anyway?

Gluten is a protein found in grains like wheat, barley, and rye. It’s what makes bread chewy and pizza dough stretchy, but for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it’s a nightmare.

Eating it can mess with your stomach, cause fatigue, or even lead to bigger health issues. So, if you’re one of those folks, you’re always on the lookout for safe spots to eat. That’s where Chili’s comes in—they’ve got a menu designed to help you out.

A Few Things to Keep in Mind

Cross-Contamination Warning

Chili’s kitchens use shared equipment, so even though these items are prepared without gluten-containing ingredients, there’s always a chance of cross-contact. If you’re super sensitive, let your server know right away so they can take extra precautions.

No Gluten-Free Buns

If you’re ordering a burger, you’ll have to go bun-less. Same goes for fajitas—stick to corn tortillas, not flour ones.

Fried Foods

Items like wings and fries might be cooked in shared fryers, so ask your server if they can accommodate your needs or if there’s a dedicated fryer.

Tips for Ordering Gluten-Free at Chili’s

Here’s how to make sure your meal is as safe as possible:

Check the Menu Online: Before you go, skim their official gluten-friendly menu on their website (Gluten-Friendly Menu) to get an idea of what’s available.
Speak Up: Always tell your server you’re gluten-free. They’re used to it and will pass the word to the kitchen.
Ask Questions: Don’t be shy—ask how your food is prepared. Some sauces or seasonings might have hidden gluten.
Stick to Simpler Dishes: Grilled meats with steamed veggies or salads (without croutons) are usually the safest bets.

Why Chili’s is a Good Bet for Gluten-Free Diners

Chili’s have got a wide range of options, from burgers to bowls, and they’re upfront about what’s safe and what’s not. Plus, they’ve got prices listed, so you won’t get sticker shock when the bill comes. Whether you’re grabbing lunch with friends or treating the kids, there’s something for everyone, even if you’re dodging gluten.

So, next time you’re craving something hearty and Tex-Mex-y, hit up Chili’s. Just remember to let them know you’re gluten-free, and you’ll be good to go. Happy eating!
