Review of Brookside Barrio

IMPORTANT NOTE: The corn chips made in-house at B.B. are *not* gluten-free. They are cooked in the same fryer as gluten-containing foods. When I asked if the chips were gluten-free, at first I was told yes. When I dug deeper and asked about a dedicated fryer, the clarification came out about the mixed use fryer. Their gluten sensitive menu marks many chip/dip-based starters as GF, but only the dip is GF. Disappointing and rather frustrating as the dips and salsa all looked delicious. I ordered the 3 street taco entree with the Pork Pastor meat. ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE: If you order any of the taco entrees, be sure to ask that the black beans are served in a regular bowl. Normally, the black beans are served in a miniature flour tortilla taco bowl. The Pork Pastor meat is delicious, as are the black beans and pickled onions. They served the dish 1 tortilla short. All told, what I was served tasted great. The overall experience, though, was frustrating and underwhelming. Hopefully, these are growing pains that they will move out of soon.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
