If you find yourself at University Hospitals, check out the Wolfgang Puck Express. While there was no gluten free menu, the cashier read from a list of items that could be prepared gluten free including Rotisserie Chicken, Salmon, Butternut Squash Soup, and Mashed Potatoes.  I enjoyed the very fresh Greek Salad with Chicken ($10).  The cashier said that allergy orders are prepared in a separate area of the kitchen.
