Review of Chop Shop Taco

Overall Rating

Review


I have to assume the past reviews for the wrong restaurant as I had a horrible experience. I don’t think our waiter/bartender had any concept of what gluten was as when I asked if the pork belly taco was gf he said it was just pork then proceeded to talk about how it was fried and battered in flour as if that wasn’t considered gluten lol. I eventually ordered 3 tacos - chorizo, mushroom, and cauliflower taco with corn tortillas as they were gf and was brought a battered cauliflower taco as he forgot it was breaded. The entire time, my husband (not celiac or gf) and I felt really unwelcome by our waiter for ordering ANYTHING and it got worse when ordering/asking about GF options.

I’ve had better tacos at chain restaurants and they actually take allergies seriously. They also have better margaritas.
