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).

Gluten-free menu with a variety of options - combination plates, fajitas, and salads. The food was average, but the service was below average. The stars are awarded for the food, bonus points for a gluten-free menu.

Alert: I tried to eat lunch there May 2012--after speaking with the manager, he informed me that they no longer are able to promise gluten free food. Apparently, people eating off of their GF menu (the server had it at my table-was laminated and printed) had gotten sick recently so they stopped offering GF options. He suggested I not attempt to eat there if I had an allergy (celiac).

I got the shrimp fajita salad without cheese. It was excellent. Will be returning.

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.

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!
