Barrio

I went here after a show at the Van Andel Arena. Staff were attentive and well-informed of the kitchen protocols and ingredients. Gluten free items are prepared in a separate area of the kitchen and fresh containers of ingredients. The menu is well marked, but I was concerned the "beer braised black beans" were marked incorrectly, although the server said it was gluten free beer that's used. The food tasted really good -- the cilantro lime rice is yummy! I wish the portions had been larger. I did a build your own taco with steamed corn tortilla, mushrooms, cilantro and onion, cheese, and salsa.

I have celiac and have safely eaten at Barrio many times. It's my favorite Mexican restaurant. Love the queso and make your own burrito bowls! They take your allergy very seriously and things are clearly marked. The tortilla chips are gluten free also.

Disappointed by the service. Was told conflicting info about the fryer. Was initially told it was safe, until I pointed out a non-gf fried item, at which point it wasn’t safe. Staff was apologetic but it was still after I ate food that I was assured was safe even though it wasn’t. Steer clear of anything fried

Great tacos that are completely customizable so you can ensure they’re gluten free. I mentioned to the host I have an allergy and she made sure to note it down. Mexican is always a go to for me and this place did not disappoint

Have been here probably ten times and never have any issues. Food is prepped in a separate area and all servers know what we’re talking about. Great option in EL!
