Review of Altiro Latin Fusion Restaurant

I've eaten dinner here thrice and had amazing food without getting cross contaminated. Most of the dinner is GF or easily made GF with a quick item switch. However, my fourth trip was during brunch. My friend and I were unaware that gluten was on every item in the brunch menu - pancakes & crepes, for example, but there was no where else I could possibly eat in that area. (Manna, a near-by dedicated restaurant was closed that day.) I explained my issue to the server, who was very kind and understanding. The chef, too, worked at providing a safe meal. Alas, I was still glutened. It was "mild" (my body is obnoxiously sensitive,) but they did the best they could in a kitchen filled with flour. Lesson learned. Dinner is safe and definitely worth the trip to Wheaton, but NEVER GO FOR BRUNCH.
