The menu clearly marks items that are gluten free. I ordered the Enchiladas Suizas (marked GF) and further notified the server that if there was a modification necessary to make it gluten free to do so because I was very sensitive. Either she didn't understand me and no modification was made, or the entree is not gluten free as described, or there was some terrible cross contamination, because I had the worst reaction of my life. So glad I was home and not out in public. I did not eat the corn chips because of the shared fryer. (Sensitive Celiac)
No
I asked our server a bunch of questions and he assured me everything was fine. I then asked about the risk of cross contamination with the corn taco shells. He said the gf shells are made/prepped in the same area as the wheat ones. We got up and left. Didn't sound safe at all
I was cross contaminated here. They assured me everything was gluten free, and that nothing went on the grill but meat. That said, I had chicken tacos and they came with a thin layer of “breading” which they assured me was corn. No sure where it happened, and I should disclose that I am a sensitive Celiac, but I definitely had a reaction from my meal here.
No
Tasty, filling food with expertly cooked meat. Lots of options if you're a picky eater, and they're very accommodating of allergies and requests. A good place to go for a regular outing, and family reunions.

My son has Celiac and we had a great experience there. We brought our own chips because they use a shared fryer. he enjoyed the queso dip. The menu had GF clearly labeled and there were many choices. My son doesn't eat much so they made him corn tortillas with cheese quesadilla style. He loved it and they were very inexpensive! Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about keeping ingredients separate in the kitchen.
Yes
Food was really good. Fast service and friendly staff. Extensive List of GF items.
Fajitas Texacanos were outstanding! (Steak, shrimp, and chicken.). Margaritas were awesome too! I will definitely be back!
Yes
Everything that is GF is labeled on the menu. I had the Pollo Loco with charro beans, house sangria, and chips and salsa with no reaction. Plus the food and service was EXCELLENT. A must try of you're missing Mexican food.
Yes
Excellent gf menu, delicious food, very cute setting. Huge drinks!
Cinco is awesome!! They have a robust menu all marked with so many gluten free options that you'll have a hard to choosing because it's all so good. After having a hard time finding and enjoying a Mexican food place, Cinco is now my go to. Super delicious food, from appetizers, chips and salsa, entrees and dessert. Enjoy!
Lots of gluten free options noted on the menu. I ordered the Flautas and a Jalapeño Margarita which were both very good. Service was fast and attentive. One note of caution: for items which are fried, do ask your server about shared space with gluten containing items. Always better to ask than assume anyhow.
Delicious corn tacos and friendly staff aware of Celiac and familiar with menu options/suggestions. Also amazing margaritas!

Chips are in a shared fryer but plenty of non fried foods. Food is tasty. Some wait staff seem to know more than others but they are always ready to help or to get someone who can be of assistance.

I called this restaurant twice to ask gluten questions specifically before we ordered. When I picked up our order, some of our sides (guacamole, pico, etc) were missing. This is forgivable but what is NOT forgivable is that all of the warmed tortillas that came for our tacos etc were FLOUR TORTILLAS and my daughter ate one before I caught that it wasn’t corn. She was up all night throwing up and will be sick now for at least 48 hours due to this negligence. If you order from here, carefully check all your food and sides before you consume.

*CROSS CONTAMINATION NIGHTMARE*
Please be careful if you have a gluten allergy. Staff does not seem aware of what actually contains gluten (or in some cases what gluten even is..) despite MANY items which are marked gluten free. Items marked gluten free are fried in shared fryers with gluten products and prepared on the same surfaces as gluten containing items. NOT SAFE for those with food allergies or celiac disease.
