Many gluten free and vegan options. Knowledgeable staff. Not a 100% gluten free facility. Great experience nonetheless.

I was told over the phone that fajitas, grilled chicken/steak entrees, and salads were relatively safe gluten free choices. Anything fried and with a flour tortilla isn't safe.

I explicitly asked if the Tacos Americanos were safe and was told they were, but they ended up giving me a reaction.

If you ask for gluten free chips, they are NOT fried with cross contamination fryer. They are baked and separate from fried chips. You can ask for them for FREE and your own salsa. You can also get gluten free nachos and plenty of ways to make your meal gluten free!

Fantastic options and knowledge staff. Ask for GF chips and if they don't have any ask for them to bake some. They are great about it! The Dover NH location is fantastic about going above and beyond and the staff loves to show off their knowledge which is awesome!

They're so accommodating and knowledgeable about what is safe to eat. But make sure to ask for gluten free chips when they first serve them

From the moment I walked in, the staff took care of my needs. Instead of having to watch the other dinners munch tortilla chips and salsa, a plate of gluten free tortillas and my own salsa were delivered. Mojito was delicious as were the frozen blood orange margaritas others had. I have multiple allergies. The most difficult is finding a dairy free option. This may not be the place for you if both are problematic. The food was well prepared and overall a great experience.

They are extremely accommodating and well versed in gf! Only caution is to avoid the chips if you are extremely sensitive. They are deep fried in the first batch of clean oil after cleaning the equipment, but it is the same equipment. This is one of my "go to" safe places!!!

They don't have a gf menu but the waitstaff are well trained and understand what Celiac Disease is. There are many options from the regular menu and they know what sauces are not gf. They will bring chips to your table but if you say you need gluten free, they will make fresh chips in a dedicated fryer. Highly recommend!

Ate at the Margaritas in Portsmouth- no GF menu, however, our waitress was super sweet and understood what I could and couldn't eat. She brought me out my own basket of chips and salsa so that the chips weren't cross-contaminated!

There was no gluten free menu, but they were more than accommodating. The manager Jimmy came over and met with my daughter and I and explained our options. We ordered, Jimmy met with the chef and the meals arrived perfectly. Great job!

You can ask for GF chips that are made in a dedicated fryer. The staff alerted the kitchen of my “allergy” and were all very knowledgeable. Delish enchiladas and rice!!

The long anticipated opening was nothing short of a huge disappointment. Shame on them for not adding a dedicated gluten free fryer. If we ever stop again, it will be Augusta where they care enough to cater to food allergies. Any new establishment not considering this is alienating full families. Will not be at this location again, ever.

My server had little experience with gluten free issues. It wasn’t until I was deep into the menu that I saw the chips were not gluten free. Definitely very different in quality. The original chips were light and white the corn chips were darker and yellower. The rest of my meal was pretty tasteless.
