I was assured nearly all of the food could be made celiac safe; and while the food was delicious, I got very very sick afterwards. I ordered a Colombian Empanada, and a chicken Arepa.

The only reason I’m not giving 1 star is because my husband is Colombian and it’s nice that he has somewhere he can have food from his culture.

Pretty good! I called and talked to them in person, any of their dishes without spaghetti or bread is naturally gf. If you want anything fried, do it before Friday, it sounds like all of their fried food is gf except on Fridays they have might have specials that are breaded and they use the same fryers. Got the chicken arepa and yucca fries. I liked the yucca fries a lot, the arepa tasted like a chicken salad with avocado, not too bad!
