Lots of things are marked gluten free but beware and ask questions. They don’t have a gluten free fryer so the chips aren’t gluten free (and are not marked as such). I ordered a quesadilla and it came fried. So I couldn’t eat it. The menu never mention it was fried. I had a salad and I didn’t have a reaction. I’ll go back but will continue to ask questions and only order what is truly safe for me.

Love this place! Great Mexican food, lots of GF options, all labeled on the menu. I had the Chile verde with pork, & had a hard time refraining from eating everything on my plate, though that would have been too big a meal!

Went here for lunch yesterday. They do have gluten-free options and they did say that the chips were gluten-free. When I tried to ask questions I was just told it’s gluten-free it’s gluten-free it’s gluten-free. I think they were busy and shorthanded and didn’t have time to listen to my concerns or to explain things. I thought the food was flavorful and the service was pretty good. I did not get sick or get any symptoms of cross-contamination. We had the chili Verde pork with rice and beans and my husband had three enchiladas (cheese, chicken, pork) with rice and beans that we’re good.

This was the most flavorless white washed Mexican food. No flavor what so ever. It was bad. I don't waste food. I had to just not eat it. We paid went to cook for dinner. It is so so bad I wanted to like it. Watermelon margarita was good

Went for lunch with a friend. Told the server I was allergic to gluten and needed to make sure my tacos were GF. The male server (maybe manager) kind of blew me off but I hoped it wouldn’t be an issue. The fish tacos were mainly stuffed with cabbage and had no flavor. Probably the worst fish tacos I’ve ever had. Very disappointed in customer service (none) and food quality. I definitely got gluten in my food as I am feeling the effects. Don’t risk it like I did.

If I could rate this place as a zero, I would. The staff was not knowledgeable and informed me that the meats were all NOT gluten free. I sat while my family ate dinner and had water. The manager didn’t bother to come by and the server didn’t offer additional assistance. Eventually, I asked to check with the manager and she then informed me that the meats are gluten free. They are not consistent with their information and I wouldn’t risk eating here.
