Golden Burro Cafe & Lounge

No gluten free options and didn’t know what gluten was. They thought I was asking for vegan. Soooo. We left.

They have a dedicated fryer but also a big warning about cross contamination. I decided to risk it and so far I’m okay. I will say my server did not seem to know anything about celiac and did not inspire confidence. I’d ask to talk to the chef.

Update: their menu is wrong! The mushroom nugget appetizer has gluten. On my receipt it said dedicated fryer so the fryer may be contaminated too.

Definitely don’t eat their baked goods. The chef said her celiac friend was fine for one bite but not fine after a whole piece.

My wife is celiac, so we are always thorough in our evaluation of the menu, which is labeled, and talking to the staff. We ate their for breakfast. They were knowledgeable, the food was delicious.

Very safe for celiacs. Dedicated fryer for french fries. Lots of gf options. I wasn’t wild about the veggie burger.

This place was great. Dedicated fryer so I had a smothered burger with fries. Staff was knowledgable about celiac and safe foods. End of tourist season so a bit short on staff, but long on flavor and food options.

Most dishes can be made gluten-free, and they have a dedicated fryer (but you have to request it). It is 100% vegan. Burger was fine; fries were great. Spouse says the chile rellenos were excellent.

Awesome! My father is a celiac, I am not, and neither of us are vegetarian. I had the burger covered in green chili and my dad had tacos. We split cauliflower “wings”. We did not miss the meat at all and he did not get sick!

Had a great lunch at this cute little plant-based diner! They had tons of gluten free options, and have a dedicated fryer if you let them kid you have celiac. Tons of g-free desserts and pastries also!
