Review of Mariel

Mariel turned out to be better than I thought for gluten free! I went for brunch and had a lovely waiter who started off by asking if anyone had allergies. When I let him know I had Celiac, he went to talk to the chef and came out with a menu that was marked up to show what items were gf, what could be modified to be gf, and what couldn’t be made gf.

Note that some of the modifications were pretty big - I had the arepas and the modification was no arepas (so it was just the egg scramble and beans and guacamole) but it was still delicious. The chips are fried in their own fryer and are safe. I felt fine after eating here and really enjoyed the food!
