I’ve eaten safely at Bomba a number of times. The servers are well-educated on celiac, will always flag my items, and even for things that are usually made in the shared fryer will have them put in the dedicated fryer.

Items marked gluten-free but share surfaces throughout the cooking process including the grill. Luckily the server warned me due to personal knowledge of gluten-free needs and was able to tell me which foods were actually safe. From a huge selection of gluten free items listed on the menu - the server was only comfortable serving a handful as truly gluten free. The food I got was good but you need to make sure you disclose and request separate cooking or the gluten free items will be cooked on glutened surfaces.

Eaten here many times with my sister and SIL - we are all celiac and never had any trouble. Let your server know before ordering and they’ll help you pick out things on the menu. You know the tacos are on corn tortillas because they’re doubled up. Guac and Brazilian cheesy bread is also super good.

I had eaten here a couple times previously, and they handled my gluten free order just fine. This last visit left me sick the next day, so unfortunately I will probably not be back. The waitress was helpful with my order, and offered gluten free options, but I’m very reactive to cross contamination & it’s not worth the risk if the kitchen can’t handle it. It’s too bad because the food is good

Tacos are pretty good but not exceptional. Really good gluten free cheese bread! Gluten free options clearly marked on the menu, they may need to make alterations though... for instance, the chips are in a shared fryer, so if you get guacamole they'll give you veggies to dip it in instead. I felt fine after my meal
