My husband and I will drive the extra few minutes to specifically cone to this location over another one slightly closer to our home. The staff here are kind and professional and the level of service has never been lacking. The food is delicious and we've never gotten sick or had a bad experience here.
For those with Celiac or who are highly sensitive to gluten, I do not recommend the corn tortillas as, while they do not contain any gluten themselves, they are cooked on the same surface as the wheat-flour tortillas. I personally always opt for the baja bowl and haven't had any issues at this location.

Additionally, they note that their "hot items are prepared with low sodium".

The one and only time I went to the CENTERVILLE location. The person had just put on clean gloves then put his hands down where the flour tortillas are. I asked him to change his gloves and he refused. I got sick from eating there. Will not being returning to that location.

The staff is SO AMAZING. I’ve never gotten sick here and eat here all the time. and I’m a suuuuper sensitive celiac! The one in station park Farmington is by far the best
Yes
From their allergen list: We have worked diligently to remove wheat gluten from all our sauces, dressings, and proteins. Natural glutens remain only in our flour and wheat tortillas and in two desserts--tres leches and key lime pie. This means that we offer "oceans of gluten-free options" in our menu. All of these items are gluten-free: all enchiladas, all tacos, all salads (without the flour or wheat tortilla), all nachos, and our chicken tortilla so up...which uses corn strips.
Great food, easy to work with on Gf options.
Yes
They are amazing! They wash their hands and change their gloves. It's the best gluten free restaurant I know!!
Staff was excellent. When I asked for a corn tortilla I was asked if it was for an allergy. After saying yes, he took off his gloves, washed his hands, put new gloves on, cleaned off the surface, and made my salad. He knew which options were safe and even had them bag mine in a different bag than my husbands. Excellent service for gluten intolerance.
They take great care to avoid cross contamination! Love that I can eat here no problems
Yes
My husband and I went to dinner on May 6 I asked the server about their gluten-free menu is knowledgeable on everything that they had and he was very careful about not cross contamination. The food was really good The food was really good and will be going to back again.

I think that it was great! you can get anything in gf except for only one item on their menu! definitely I am going back! ;)
The food is good. I've never had a problem with cross contamination. However when I just called to place my gluten-free order they asked if that meant wheat tortillas. G.I.G's training fail.
Great experience. All GF except flour Tortilla, pie and cookies. Goes through oven in individual container.

Staff was kind and knowledgeable. Changed gloves and washed their hands without being told. They also let us “tweak” the side of chips to have melted cheese instead of having to order a huge order of nachos for a child.

Server immediately changed gloves and washed hands when I mentioned a gluten allergy, in addition, he pulled my tray from the back and used the serving counter in the back to prevent cc, and walked my tray himself through the rest of line, communicating with other team members that he had an allergy order. Very impressed with how he handled everything! Everything is gf except for the flour tortillas.
