Went with a lunch group and you can’t order anything off the lunch menu (GF) They won’t tweak it. The waiter didn’t want to hear about it. The other GF limited menu was dinner prices. Food was not above average for Mexican.

Tamales were a great choice. Brought out gluten free chips. Not as good as the real chips but ok for dipping.

Not very many GF options here. I had the GF tacos. They were ok, nothing special. Did not have any reactions. Cool ambiance, but otherwise, meh!

They changed their recipes and now the "gluten free" stuff isn't any good. Very limited on what is decently safe to eat.

The manager told me not to eat there since it's not really gluten free!

This restaurant is NOT gluten free. Their chips are fried with gluten products. The server said nothing on the menu is considered gluten free. They have a "gluten-sensitive" menu meaning they don't purposely put gluten in it, but everything is open to contamination. No separate oils, cooking utensils, pans, or prepping areas.

Staff is helpful depending on which location you go to and who is working at the time. They give you special chips that are GF but they're not very good.

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).

My husband and I eat here regularly. They have a gluten free menu. There is no dedicated fryer, but they will bring you baked chips. Only one of the salasas (green) is gluten free. I get the veggie fajitas with no dairy and can choose from lettuce wraps or corn tortillas. Portions are huge and we always have left overs. Staff is always nice.

Was a bit worried when I saw these reviews but I had no issues at all. I asked if the chips were gf and they got me “gluten sensitive” ones. I ordered the soft tacos and was a bit worried when the bread was white but they assured me it was corn tortillas. Overall it was a great experience and would go again!
