Spicy margaritas are awesome, also the destroyers which are like a Mai Tai but stronger. Stayed safe and had the oysters and Po-Kay, Nima approved!

Visited Descanso beach club today. There menu was a mess. Items were marked gluten free but they were cooked in a shared fryer. Had the tacos which is usually a safe option. Tacos can put with chips (not gluten Fred’s, shared fryer). Ate the tacos 🤞

Chips are gluten free and safe because they use a separate fryer! Items that are gluten free are clearly marked on the menu. Very friendly and understanding waitstaff

First, the menu has the GF options marked which is super helpful. I really liked the nachos the last time I was visiting, but I was not GF then.

I asked my server if she knew what made the nachos not gluten free, and she asked the chef for me. He said it was the cheese, so I had cheeseless nachos (which were super yummy!) and did not get sick. My server was aware how severe it was for me not to have gluten, and was helpful.
