Antigua Real

Had a great gluten free experience recently and actually was full this time. Went there a few years back and felt I was skimped. This time had left overs even so was very pleased. Plus I didn’t get sick being gf.

How confident are you that this establishment takes safety precautions against cross-contact?

— Very

How much of the menu is available gluten-free?

— Most/All

How would you rate the taste and quality of the gluten-free food you tried?

— Excellent

Menu clearly states that they are not a gluten free facility, but that they can make accommodations. Waitress seemed to scoff at me when I asked if the corn chips were gluten free, wondering if these specific chips were GF, when she snarked back that, "Yeah, corn is GF." Ok. I ordered the taco salad, no tortilla bowl. It was gross: hot roasted zucchini & peppers & olives, and warm refried beans layered in-between layers of cheap bagged lettuce topped with melted cheese & shredded red cabbage. It would have been good, if they made a hot dish out of it using rice instead of lettuce, but it was a gross mish-mash of flavors & temperatures. A few days later, I had some "symptoms," so I will not be returning.

Celiac friendly?

No

The decor was festive and fun, felt like walking into a restaurant in a Latin country. Started with the Midnight Margarita. Chips and salsa were brought to the table. I ordered some nachos after being told they were gluten free. It's was all pretty tasty.
