First thing I said was that I need everything gluten free. Then they offered a free soup. I said only if it's gluten free. They said it was - it is not.

I did get sick the last time. They do have a little knowledge, as their sauces are gluten free and they know which items are gluten free. But I don’t believe they take precautions in preventing cross contamination. When I try to ask questions when ordering I feel like I’m a bit brushed off. I’m not comfortable in believing that the cooks are doing their part while preparing the order, especially when many orders are going in at the same time. The food is delicious but I’m not sure I would go again.

The food is good, and how cool is it that you can get Molé sauce! If you want the soup, tell them you want the vegetarian soup instead of the welcome soup. It is a lentil soup and it is gluten free. Portions are generous and the restaurant is clean. I am highly reactive and have not had a problem eating here.

Great little place. All sauces are GF and I got the sour cream chicken enchiladas. They have one fryer so chips were cross contaminated. They were very nice and answered all of my questions. Would definitely return!

Almost the whole menu is GF except for flour tortilla items and dessert. It was nice to eat enchiladas again!

Absolutely incredible Mexican food. All the sauces are marked gluten free. I had the mole enchiladas, and they were incredible (forgot to take a pic before eating). Chips and salsa are extra, but there’s a complimentary soup. It has noodles, so I didn’t eat it. I also didn’t ask about the chips and didn’t eat those.
