Have tried this place three times and gotten cross-contamination sick all three times. Have tried all kinds of different foods with the same result. The common thread is the chips. Celiacs, particularly sensitive celiacs, should avoid.

Had a great experience tonight - dedicated fryer for the chips and told the queso is GF. Server was great and checked on everything for me.

Review
Food was safe but I must have been spoiled by by the amazing place we frequent in our town because I found the food to be extremely bland. Chips were stale, guacamole was decent, shredded chicken street tacos were all tortillas and little filling. They were actually so bland I only ate 1 1/2. It's hard to find safe places so if we were local we'd try again but we are only in town for the weekend so our one and only visit was really disappointing.

They no longer have a dedicated frier (waitress said that the oil they use now is not safe), so be aware of that and ask everytime. The lack of a safe frier does cut down what is safe for those with celiac disease. Other than that, good food.

This will be my go to place to eat when I am craving Mexican food! Manager & servers are extremely knowledgeable about gluten free & Celiac issues. Dedicated fryer, eat all the chips & salsa you want! I got the chicken fajitas with corn tortillas and it was delicious. I am a Celiac & extremely sensitive, did not get sick one bit!

Review
Safe chips, queso and guac is the real reason to go. Entrees were totally safe and separate this is more of a quantity over quality place. Fun ambience and was affordable and the staff was great.

I don’t as told that they could not make sure my food was safe for me to eat. Don’t trust this place if you have celiac disease!
