I’ve been to Jaleo many times. Much of the menu is gluten free and the staff are very knowledgeable about gluten.

I got 3 tapas that were gluten-free and vegan. They were all delicious. I was surprised a Spanish place had vegan options and these were very tasty.

Spinach dish with pine nuts & raisins Cauliflower with dates Potatoes - they offered vegan sauces instead of the traditional cheese.

Food was amazing. Despite their statement on the menu, the kitchen was willing to take steps to prevent cross contamination. David was our waiter, who understood and handled everything so well. Great place!

Everything was delicious! Their fried items are no longer listed on their gluten free menu as they may have been in the past in reading other reviews. The servers at the bar had a decent understanding of gluten.

My server was very knowledgeable. Asked how serious my allergy was and when I said celiac he checked with the chef, had the kitchen change gloves and pans and the food was delicious. Even better that the happy hour tapas and sangria were $6-$8 each!

The gluten free menu was outdated however the server was very knowledgeable and was able to assist. The food was delicious and the cheesecake is hands down the best gf cheese cake ever made! I did not get sick at all after.

It was alright. Really chatty server that wayy over-sold the taste, quality, and quantity of food. I’ve lived in Spain and have experienced authentic Spanish cuisine; I would say this is not it. It was americanized: soggy, bland, and one texture. Got four very different tapas but they all tasted the same.

Service-wise: Took 20 min to get menus after we sat down, and food took for ever to arrive; it’s not like there was that much food to be served.

They do have a separate allergy menu. For a variety of allergies. Ask for it on your way in.

Very pricey
