Food was only surpassed by the service. Arguably the best mexican food I have ever had. 100% celiac safe. I informed the waitress who assured me that precautions would be taken and it was a wonderful experience. Fully encourage you to try this restaurant.

Tips


Celiac

It’s not a dedicated fryer, so make sure to let the server know if Celiac, and they will open a bag of gluten free tortilla chips instead of chips from the fryer.

This restaurant went above and beyond for our family. We ordered takeout on a busy Saturday night. They called us to say the kitchen was absolutely slammed, and that they could make us safe food but it may be a bit longer of a wait because of the extra precautions (for the record this has never happened before and they’re usually prompt - not that it was an issue). This showed how seriously they take cross contamination and really made me feel appreciative and comfortable eating there as a sensitive celiac. They ended up calling us back to say the food was actually ready early anyway haha. They were extremely kind and accommodating, which as a celiac that feels a bit burdensome, was really really appreciated. The food was awesome as well!

We had such a wonderful lunch here, many items are gluten free and staff took the time to carefully explain. We had the traditional tacos, choosing 3 different tacos each. Food was fantastic and very fresh (see photo). They make everything in house including fresh guacamole, you can also get tortillas salsas and dips to go.

Update: Not as fantastic of an experience in our 2nd visit. The server told us what was safe, and it was only on e he brought our daughter's "gluten-free" meal that we realized it was fried in a non-dedicated fryer. We had to place a new order for her, and the 2nd order was not as pleasing to her, plus it took forever. Somewhat disheartening experience, and verrrrrry slow service. Our nacho appetizer came at the same time as the meal, and only after we asked about it multiple times. Won't rush back. ____________________________ Fair number of GF options on the menu. Our server was really knowledgeable about what items are Celiac-Safe and which aren't. We have bought their GF nachos from the grocery store before, so we were surprised to hear that the freshly made ones in the restaurant might be cross-contaminated - but they opened up the safely packaged ones for us. Love that our 5-year-old Celiac could eat something at a restaurant other than GF pasta for once! She was thrilled with chicken and guac and nachos.
