I didn't get sick from the food not being gluten free. They did a wonderdul job. BUT, dear Lord I think this was my first experience eating a microwaved chicken wrapped in leafs from a bag they forgot to put on the curb. I don't know how they managed to do it, but they made a worse burrito bowl than me. It's especially insulting considering I'm Irish and never made a meal that involved the use of heat.

In conclusion - Great people, great service, chalky chicken.

Went there for drinks and appetizers with a group. Asked the server if they had a Gluten-Free menu; answer was no. Asked the server if the tortilla chips were Gluten-Free; answer was no. I didn't eat anything at all with my run of the mill margarita. Their website does not have a Gluten-Free menu, but if you call they say they do have a Gluten-Free menu. None of this inspires confidence. Not worth the risk.

For a hot day, looking for festive dinner location with cold drinks. Mexican always good for gluten free. Cozymel has great decor, we were warmly greeted at door. Our server was friendly, giving genuine feeling of interest in our good time. Complimentary chips and salsa were delicious, table next to us quipping, "I'll never eat my meal, but these chips are good!" Kids portions were huge, but great to see carrots on plate. No gluten free menu, but a lot of GF options. My tacos were delicious, fun desert menu. Margaritas were cold, nothing to write home about, but hit the spot. We will return.

Barely any options, slow service on a day when they were not remotely crowded. Wouldn't recommend for those who are gluten free. You'll just be jealous about the corn tortilla chips that are brought out that they don't have a gluten free frier for. None of the fried food is an option because of this as well. Not coming back here any time soon.

Almost no options for celiacs unless you want a meatless salad. My 10 year old daughter with celiac had no options there. Although they say they have a GF menu, everything has some type of qualification about it (common fryer, soy sauce based marinade, flour containing broth). Very disappointing.

The waitress we had was extremely knowledgeable about gluten free items and checked with the chef about one of the items when she was not sure. The food tasted good (corn tortillas and black beans, note - the refried beans are not GF) . I would go back again.
