Nando's Mexican Cafe

Not much to eat. There is very little on the gf Menu. They claimed that everything that I had was Gluten Free but I still got sick. My parents liked the place but as someone with an allergy. I do not recommend this place for other people with food allergies. Especially gluten.

Gluten free menu is available but limited to a few items. I chose chicken tacos and specified absolutely no tomatoes in the entire dish as I’m highly intolerant. Took two bites of a taco and started feeling nauseous then notice small red pieces and asked if they are tomato or pepper and they were tomatoes! They did remove the meal from our bill but I left feeling nauseas and stomach cramping pain. I specified three times before my order was submitted that I could not have tomatoes.

For a Mexican restaurant, they have quite a few GF options. 5-6 listed on separate menu but my server told me how to get several other items gluten free, including fajitas!

Earlier visit we were told there was a Dedicated fryer for chips per staff. Today server said there is no dedicated fryer and the wheat foods are fried in the same fryer as the chips. Small GF menu which offers machaca, tacos, and taco salad on corn tortillas with black beans or vegetables. Good food with friendly, but unfortunately, not overly knowledgeable staff.

They have a separate GF menu - I thought the food was excellent. Perhaps half a dozen choices. I did not eat the chips; I don’t think they had a dedicated fryer.

They do have a GF menu with very limited options. Server was knowledgeable on gluten free items and cross contamination but my meal came out wrong and with gluten - delivered by someone other than the server. The server apologized and had my meal made again without gluten and brought it out himself.
