Review of El Lago Mexican Restaurant

With this place having no reviews I was skeptical but after calling and verifying they had a gluten free menu I wanted to try it out. Once we got there I was nervous. Our server barely spoke English and so when I asked for a gluten free menu, he just gave me a regular menu… I don’t think he understood what I was asking. After talking to a hostess that spoke English. She verified the only menu item that had gluten was the flour tortillas. There didn’t seem to be any sort of protocol for cross contamination so I decided to be safe and get a bowl. I didn’t get sick, but I’m not always symptomatic. I would avoid this place if you are celiac or sensitive to CC. They even got my husbands order wrong by bringing his tacos out on flour tortillas even though he asked for corn. He’s not gluten free so it was no big deal, but could be for someone trying to avoid gluten.
