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.

When I first found out I had to cut out gluten I was really upset, but when I came here and realized that at one of my favorite restaurants literally about half the menu is gluten free! The staff is great and when I mentioned I was gluten free they were very helpful in helping show me what I can and can’t eat.

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.

*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.

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)

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
