They have a separate menu, the staff is clueless....ordered off the gluten free menu, first bite into my side dish I realize it's something that was not on the gluten free menu, asked the waiter and he quickly snatched up my plate and ran off with it, too bad I already took a bite :( my family was done eating before my food was even out....yuck!

GF menu available and they will bake their chips to avoid cross contamination. Tasty GF options. We made sure our server knew we were requesting GF for intolerance, not as a "food fad".

Called to ask about GF chip options. Hostess that answered the phone was less than helpful and when I asked for the kitchen manager. He wouldn't come to the phone.

They have a decent sized gluten free menu that was tasty. The staff was very knowledgable about what was and wasn't gluten free. I had a very positive experience eating here!

There is a separate gluten sensitive corner on the menu with enough choices. And I couldn’t choose and the chef made a surprise dinner for me. Super tasteful and super nice. 10/10. Can I move this restaurant to the Netherlands? ;-)

My husband and I eat here regularly. They have a gluten sensitive menu. There is no dedicated fryer, but they will bring you baked chips. Only one of the salasas (green) is gluten free. Portions are huge and we always have left overs. Staff is always nice.

The other reviews are incorrect- you ask for gluten free chips. They have a gluten free section of the menu with about eight items.

This place has a limited gluten “sensitive” list on their menu. Mexican food tends to be naturally gluten free, so I was surprised it was such a small list. But, it was tasty. Chips probably are CC, we didn’t ask (husband with celiac didn’t eat them).
