The regular tortilla are not gluten-free BUT as soon as we asked, they went back and got a basket of chips that were gluten-free, that tasted very similar (My daughter has Celiac Dx, I do not). They also had gluten free corn tortillas and appeared knowledgeable. I will add that my daughter is not particularly sensitive to cross contamination as best as we can tell, so definitely ask plenty of questions.

Although the chips aren't gluten free, there were plenty of delicious options that were completely safe and I did not get sick. I had the black bean soup, which is GF without the tortilla strips, and the traditional tacos (chicken adobo, pork, and grilled cilantro lime chicken). Very tasty! We ate at the bar and the waitress/bartender was very knowledgeable and answered my questions thoroughly, checking with the kitchen in the soup. Great dinner!

No GF tortilla chips, which bummed me out, but soft corn tortillas made for really good fajitas. I'm only gluten-sensitive, so no clue about cross-contamination issues, but I felt well afterwards. If you take out, get the guacamole and buy your own GF-safe chips - Mexican makes no sense without chips and guac! :)

Menu was marked gluten free, however the staff seems unaware of not cross contaminating food.. I ordered a Quesadilla on their corn Tortilla shell. After eating there I was wicked sick, I am pretty sensitive so I wouldn't recommend to those who are gluten sensitive as well.

Menu was marked with gf items but could not rule out cross contamination. I am celiac so this is important. Table received salsa and chips but they were not gf asked if I could have corn chips with salsa for me and was told no. Don't seem to want to understand food allergies. Only dealt with 1 waitress and the bartender that served us. We're in the area visiting..... Should have tried the gf pizza restaurant.

Great understanding of GF. Since the nachos they bring to table are not GF, the chef grilled me some corn tortillas, rolled them up, and served it with separate salsa. Delicious! The menu has entrees labeled as GF. I had mixed greens salad with grilled shrimp, avocado, and tomatoes. Very fresh! Salad was about $13.00, so prices are moderate. Definitely recommend. Can sit outside in nice weather. Very friendly, welcoming staff.
