The waitress was very knowledgeable. She was able to tell me what items might be cross contaminated. They have a dedicated fryer for their tortilla chips, so no problem there!

I got glutened pretty bad here. Waiter and menu assured the food was gluten free, but that didn’t stop all the cramping and vomiting. I would not recommend.

I tried to ask the waitress about cross contamination & fryers and she kept brushing me off and assuring me the food was gluten free. I now know she had no idea what I was talking about in terms of cross contamination.

My husband and I ate dinner there this evenning. Not only did we have a unfriendly, inexperienced waiter, who knew very little about celiacs and the gluten free diet, the food was average at best and over priced. We waited a long time for our food, even though the restaurant was not busy. Our waiter assured me that everything we had ordered was gluten-free. He brought our shrimp and scallop tapas with bread and said he forgot to allocate gluten free when he placed our order. Overall a poor experience and I had a reaction from the food. I would not recommend this restaurant to those who have celiacs disease.

Decent amount of GF options. The table side guac was amazing! I had chicken enchiladas. Our server was able to readily explain my GF choices.
