Red Lobster GF info

Red Lobster was kind enough to provide a phone number right on their website in case you had any allergy concerns (800-562-7837). Therefore I would suggest calling them before going there to ensure the list they emailed us is up to date until which time that they put up a gluten free menu on their site.
