Not as safe as it used to be. The waiter didn’t know anything about celiac so the manager came to the table to discuss options and then proceeded to tell me that things fried in the cross contaminated fryer were safe because, “gluten burns off over a certain temperature.” If you are Celiac or very sensitive be extra careful here.

I’ve been to Hugo’s twice and will keep going back! The menu is not labeled but the majority of it is naturally gluten free because they use corn flour. My server had in-depth knowledge of the entire menu and of any dish to avoid based on the possibility of cross contamination, etc. I would definitely recommend Hugo’s, just make sure to talk to your server

I’ve been sick for almost a week after eating here. Although most of there menu items do not contain gluten ingredients I believe their rice and beans are cross contaminated. Would not recommend

Our GF experience was top notch. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the items that were not safe due to cross contamination(i.e. the fried apps, chips, carnitas because they are marinated in beer). I had endive instead of chips with the ceviche, which was delicious, and everything else we had was excellent.

I ordered off the HRW menu (only available in August). They had a full gf menu, which was fantastic. Most places will only have appetizer or entree. Hardly any have a full menu, so it was refreshing to see a 4 courses gf menu. It was delicious and I’m one happy person. It made me me feel normal for once.

Nice place. Food was amazing. Would recommend for anyone without celiac disease. My wife has celiac and we did not feel that our waiter had a good understanding of gluten and if certain dishes were gluten free. We definitely were on edge waiting to see if she would good sick.

Most of the menu is gluten free, though it is not marked and you will have to ask about particular items. That said, staff are very knowledgeable and were able to accommodate my onion allergy as well. Still feeling ok the day after... yay.
