This was such a cute and modern Mexican food place!! I asked at the hostess booth what was gluten free since I have a gluten allergy. I got hesitation from them as they listed off only two entrees. This concerned me, but I waited until I could talk to a server before leaving. I’m sooo glad I did!! The server was able to tell me WAY more gluten free options and denote them on the menu with a circle. She was so helpful and the food was DELICIOUS! Our friends who live in Phoenix are already planning on going back. Would definitely recommend!

No GF menu, but our server seemed to know his stuff. This is authentic Mexican food. Don’t expect a typical taco or enchilada. It was a really cool experience and adventurous eating. I couldn’t say most of what was on the menu, but our server was good at explaining what to expect, and it was good!

We ate here twice. Everyone loved it. I have celiac and they have several gluten free items to choose from. The presentation was amazing and it tasted even better than it looked. I would give this place a Michelin star. I wish i lived there this would be my favorite place. Friendly snd helpful staff.
