Cactus Club Gluten Smart Menu
The Cactus Club Gluten Smart menu includes bowls, burgers, steaks, salads, appetizers, curry and shareable dishes that are identified with the restaurant's (g) dietary symbol.
Gluten Smart does not mean completely gluten-free. Cactus Club notes that these items may still contain gluten because cross-contact can occur during preparation. Guests with celiac disease, severe gluten allergies or strict medical dietary requirements should speak directly with restaurant staff before ordering.

Important Dietary Guide
What Does Gluten Smart Mean at Cactus Club?
Cactus Club uses the (g) symbol to identify Gluten Smart menu items. According to the restaurant's menu disclaimer, Gluten Smart dishes may still contain gluten because of cross-contamination.
This means Gluten Smart should not be interpreted as a promise that a dish is certified gluten-free or completely free from trace amounts of gluten. Shared fryers, grills, preparation surfaces, utensils and kitchen equipment can all create cross-contact.
Important:
If you have celiac disease, a severe wheat allergy, or another
medical condition requiring strict gluten avoidance, tell your
server before ordering and ask about the current ingredients
and preparation procedure for your specific dish.
Nutrition Guide
Cactus Club Gluten Smart Calories and Nutrition Facts
A Gluten Smart label describes a dietary preparation, not the calorie content of a meal. Some Gluten Smart options are vegetable-forward bowls and salads, while others include burgers, fries, steak sauces, fried chicken or creamy dips and can be considerably higher in calories.
For example, Cactus Club's published nutrition information lists the Crispy Tofu Bowl at approximately 900 calories. The current nutrition guide also lists Truffle Fries at approximately 670 calories, while an earlier published menu guide lists The Feenie Burger at approximately 1,170 calories before considering differences in current gluten-smart preparation.
The numbers below should therefore be used as general nutrition references only. A Gluten Smart preparation may differ from the standard version of a dish, particularly when bread, coatings, sauces or sides are changed.
| Menu Item | Reference Calories | Protein | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crispy Tofu Bowl | ≈ 900 kcal | ≈ 27 g | Published nutrition reference for the standard bowl. |
| The Med Bowl – Vegan Reference | ≈ 700 kcal | ≈ 11 g | Nutrition varies significantly depending on protein choice. |
| The Med Bowl – Chicken Reference | ≈ 870 kcal | ≈ 39 g | Protein selection changes the complete nutrition profile. |
| Peppercorn Steak – 8 oz Sirloin Meal | ≈ 970 kcal | ≈ 61 g | Published reference with peppercorn sauce, vegetables and potatoes. |
| Thai Red Curry + Chicken | ≈ 1,020 kcal | ≈ 39 g | Published reference for chicken preparation. |
| Thai Red Curry + Tofu | ≈ 1,140 kcal | ≈ 28 g | Published reference for tofu preparation. |
| Truffle Fries | ≈ 670 kcal | ≈ 9 g | Current published side nutrition reference. |
| Green Goddess – Vegetarian Reference | ≈ 290 kcal | ≈ 11 g | Nutrition changes when chicken, salmon or other protein is added. |
| Lemongrass Noodle Salad – No Protein | ≈ 570 kcal | ≈ 12 g | Protein additions increase the nutrition of the meal. |
Nutrition Warning:
These figures are general references from Cactus Club's published
nutrition information and should not be treated as exact nutrition
values for every Gluten Smart preparation. Gluten Smart
substitutions, portion sizes, recipes, sauces, sides and protein
choices may change the final nutrition of the dish.

Before You Order
Tips for Ordering Gluten Smart at Cactus Club
Tell Your Server
If you avoid gluten for medical reasons, tell your server clearly rather than relying only on the (g) symbol.
Ask About Fryers
Fries and fried foods may be prepared in equipment that also handles gluten-containing foods, creating cross-contact.
Check Sauces
Sauces, gravies, marinades and dressings can contain gluten even when the main protein or vegetables do not.
Confirm Bread Changes
Burgers and sandwiches marked Gluten Smart may require a different preparation than the regular menu version, so confirm what bread or bun is being used.
Ask About Modifications
Some dishes may become suitable for a Gluten Smart preparation only after specific ingredients are removed or replaced.
Severe Allergy?
Gluten Smart is not the same as a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. Discuss the level of cross-contact risk before ordering.
