Chuy's

The manager came out to help me with what to eat, he told me that the meat is marinated in beer(which is made with wheat), the rice and beans were gluten free, and that they can salt and pepper my meat for me instead if making it the regular way,l. They had 5 gluten free sauces, I ordered a enchilada and they made it with a corn tortilla(they usually don't) it was good, did it contain gluten, idk they said no. Was it cross contaminated, idk I have no symptoms and fell upon celiac accidentally.

I have eaten here 3 times and every single time I get sick. The food tastes good but not worth the pain.

As soon as I asked for GF options the waitress brought me corn tortillas since I couldn’t eat the chips and let us know that they don’t have a separate menu but they are trained on it and have a list of modifications they keep in the back. She asked what I wanted and helped me make the adjustments needed to make it GF

Celiac friendly?

Yes

No GF menu, but will work with you on options. Although the manager at this location seemed less familiar with gluten options than other Chuys I've dined at. Was not sure about sauces, and unaware that Fajita meat marinated in beer would be a problem. Food was good, and did not get sick. Roasted chicken enchiladas with tomatillos sauce.

Although they don't have a Gf menu, the kitchen manager will come out, problem solve and give options for you to create your own meal. We've gone twice and dealt with different staff each time and they seem to have a better understanding of Gf than many restaurants I've been to that have a Gf menu.

Fantastic experience at Chuy’s. The manager and majority of the staff were very knowledgeable on what items are gluten free items! Their chips are made in a dedicated fryer. And corn tortillas are gluten free. Staff was so kind to let me know all the gluten free sauces that were options. Their fajita meat is not gluten free. I had the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom enchiladas and they were delicious. No cross contamination and I feel great after my meal. I’m making Chuy’s my permanent Mexican food spot in OKC!

Even though they have a GF menu, they will not guarantee it will actually be GF. All their meat proteins have gluten - from the marinade. The chips are not GF either. Very disappointing.

The GM was extremely knowledgeable about the processes and cross contamination! Chips at this location are celiac safe, boom boom sauce, and jalapeno ranch as well!

A classic Tex Mex chain so you can expect the quality to be subpar. The manager was very accommodating and confirmed they had a dedicated fryer for only corn. However, they did have to check on a lot with the previous manager to ensure GF items. I got the chicken flautas with roasted chicken. While my typical reaction of ataxia did not kick in, I did leave feeling somewhat symptomatic: light headed, hot/cold flashes, weak on my feet etc. I think I may have been exposed in some capacity.

Be aware: marinated meat is cooked in beer, queso has gluten, Mexican rice is fried in gluten fryer, and chips are cross contaminated.

If you have celiac DONT DO IT! Let me be a cautionary tale to those with any kind of gluten sensitivity. I have celiac and am currently in the worst pain of my life from eating here.
