My son, a student at Montclair State with celiac disease, recently tried Mezoco and loved it. Happy that he found another celiac-safe restaurant near campus (only 3 so far), we tried it with him and were very impressed. First off, my wife and I had a Blue Moon and margarita from the bar (separate business from restaurant and not gluten free). She ordered nachos with chicken, I got the Peach’s Tacos (my son’s recommendation), and he ordered a Mezoco Bowl with carnitas. We all loved the food, and their salsa bar is great too. It has everything from cheese, different salsas and hot sauces to sour cream and pickled onions. Try the orange habanero salsa - it is truly outstanding. Black beans were the most flavorful I’ve had, and their chips are warm and freshly made, too. So whether you are gluten free by choice, necessity or not at all, enjoy delicious fresh Mexican food at a reasonable price. Cool place, friendly staff and convenient location. We will surely be back.

PS - tres leches dessert and burrito are not GF but owner ensures no cross contamination
