Review


Fantastic experience! A bit pricey, but will eat here again.

Our waiter knew about GF options, but was not aware about their fryer. He graciously got the manager to answer my questions. Manager was aware of cross contam.

Menu is almost entirely gluten free--including all their sauces. It is clearly marked with a wheat symbol for items that contain wheat. (They're mostly burritos.)

BEWARE 1: there is NO dedicated fryer for chips, but flautas are fried in a different (separate) fryer. Manager verified. She did not explicitly state no glutenous items were fried in this separate fryer, but she definitely stated glutenous items are fried in the chip fryer. I bet it has to do with the size of the fryer (chips fried often; flautas not often, but maybe they're keeping fried meats separate--pure speculation).

BEWARE 2: Photo attached. I am going to leave feedback with the store, but after the manager left, we noticed that the "Brunch" area of the menu had no wheat symbols, but "flour tortillas" and pancakes were clearly listed.
