I felt sick after eating here, I definitely was “glutened”. I ordered a gluten free dish, but I ate quite a few of the chips they put out on the table, which they clearly make themselves. Silly me didn’t ask if they had a dedicated fryer…they don’t…pretty sure that was the culprit.

My sister has been coming here for about a month. We are both Celiac. Based on her recommendation I stopped in today for lunch. There was only one other family here eating, which makes me excited because it means my risk for cross contact is even less.

We sat. I asked about gluten free and two servers said that they do not have a dedicated fryer - they also fry flour tortillas in it.

The menu has a lot of gf on it, but this was enough for me to sit and watch my family eat because I'm not willing to risk it.

Sad because I had high hopes.

Authentic Mexican fare with GF items clearly listed on the menu. They can replace any flour tortilla item with corn tortillas. Great service and fabulous food. I have eaten here many times with no problems. Highly recommended!
