Review of Hola Mexican | Cocina + Cantina

Ordered and ate here yesterday. Their menu states gluten free and someone raves about the place so I thought I would try it out. Ordered dirty guacamole since it says gf options, along with added chips and chicharrons. When my husband returned home he said there was horrible service and also they said the chips and chicharrons were not gf! I looked at the guacamole and there were chicharron crumbles on it yet they said it was gf and the receipt even stated gf. When talking to the manager she was very rude and said they don’t have a dedicated fryer. I would say they also do not have proper knowledge on cross contamination either. The food wasn’t as great as expected and I wouldn’t eat here if you are celiac or highly sensitive.
