Very fresh and clean food. The family clearly values quality food and was very knowledgeable and accommodating. The menu doesn’t designate GF items, but the staff is knowledgeable. I enjoyed the guacamole with homemade corn tortillas and the arroz con pollo. My non-GF husband enjoyed his meal. We visited twice. Definitely a repeat!

We went on a Friday night and were seated immediately. Our waiter walked me the menu and let me know each of the items that could be prepared gluten free. I had the (I) guacamole appetizer (substituting corn tortillas for the chips because there is no dedicated fryer), (II) the pollo con arroz (which was excellent) and (III) the caramel flan (which was amazing). I had no negative reactions after dinner. My biggest regret is that I didn’t go back on Saturday night for more flan (as they appear to be closed Sunday and Monday and I have to fly out Tuesday morning). I highly recommend!!!

Amazing food. Very clear understanding of gluten free needs. They do not have a dedicated fryer and chips are homemade so not GF but they will provide you with warm corn tortilla shells to use with the guacamole.

Most everything on the menu is naturally gluten free. Staff knowledgeable. They don’t have a separate fryer and knew to tell me that. Delicious flan for dessert. Really tasty food.
