Review of Mission Taco Joint

Let me start off by saying that I was excited to finally find a Mexican restaurant that offers “gluten free food”. My girlfriend has celiac disease so we always try to find legitimate and dedicated gluten free menus. Upon arriving we asked about cross contamination, dedicated fryers, etc. Welp, no dedicated frier, no dedicated work spaces, both flour and corn tortillas are heated on the same place. My girlfriend ended up getting “naked carne asada tacos”. Which are essentially just slices of steak with guacamole lol. Thankfully she didn’t get any reactions so that was cool.

Now for the bad: No legitimate dedicated gluten free options. Despite whatever they have available it’s more for people who have a gluten free fad diet. The problem is that this restaurant treats it like a fad diet even with people who have the actual disease. Our waitress was rude as hell. She had an attitude over us asking simple questions about gluten free food. You know, the stuff that’s on the menu. My California burrito looked like cat food.

Too long didn’t read version: the term “gluten free” is becoming a trend without people taking actual precautions. If you wanna make tacos make them at home without getting worried you’ll get sick.

Celiac friendly?

No
