Taco based restaurant has many marked GF items on the menu for this celiac to choose. I had (spicy!) fish tacos but next time, I’ll try one of the bowls.

I came here for lunch and was super happy with the amount of gluten free menu items. About 75% of all tacos are gluten free which was great! I told the waitress I had a severe gluten allergy and they took note and gave it to the kitchen. The only bad part of my experience is that the chips are not gluten free which was sad bc the salsas looked yummy but I could try them.

They had clear GF markings on the menu, and my waiter was very knowledgeable about the GF options. I got three tacos on corn tortillas with a side of rice and beans and it was amazing! I am celiac and sensitive to cross contamination and didn’t have any issues here, I told my server to mark my order with an allergy. Highly recommended!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’m giving them 5 🌠because they tried so hard to make sure my food was safe and delicious 😋 (my name is Mona and I’m 7 and have celiac). The manager was so caring and we appreciated it.

Update 1/8/19: They did a really good job at making sure that my food was gluten free. They have a new standard to avoid cross-contamination. They wore gloves and put a sticker on the plate that said gluten free. It was great.🍴🏆🥇.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Bel Air Catina has a dedicated GF menu for brunch/lunch & dinner. Delicious food, good portions.

Lots of good options. I had a steak burrito bowl. No separate GF menu but items are marked.

This is one of our go to spots for dinner. Chips are gf. Gf items are clearly marked on the menu and the food is delicious. I’ve eaten here many times without getting sick. Manager and some of the waiters are really good about celiac/gf concerns but we did have an incident recently with a new waitress who failed to communicate with the kitchen clearly and my celiac sons food came out with a flour tortilla. I caught it in time, the manger came over and was extremely apologetic, they remade everything from scratch and comped his meal. We’ve been here enough to know that was an exception, not the norm
