The manager, Ole, has been very helpful in the past, as he is also gluten-free. However, the staff do not appear to be being trained. We ordered “to go” due to my family member’s recent surgery. Even while the order was clearly labeled gluten-free, the order contained rice. We called back upon finding the rice in the gluten-free order and asked if they have changed the rice formula? The lady who said she is the manager went to speak to the cook. She came back to the phone to say the cook says there is only rice, butter and the chicken base that the rice is cooked in, so it is fine. We responded that Ole has told us the chicken base contains wheat, and I cannot eat the rice. She was apologetic, and said she would go let the cooks know. Also, to note: when you order to go, you do not get the gluten-free bean dip that anyone who eats in the restaurant is provided at no charge, but they do give a little bag of chips for the whole order. Gluten-free are not identified on the to go menu where you order online.

Spoke to the manager and he said chips are cross-contaminated. Has fajitas with corn tortillas that they cooked with clean utensils and separate part of the grill. I’m very sensitive and didn’t get sick. Definitely speak to a manager as servers didn’t understand gluten well.

This place had great food! I had the steak fajitas and they were amazing! They even had summer squash and zuchinni which gave it a fresh taste. The guacamole is also very good. Had no issues with gluten.

This place was great! Multiple options for gluten free and vegetarian. Delicious food. Unsure if there is a dedicated gluten free fryer. I don’t know how someone with celiac would fair, but gluten intolerant folks this seems to be a good place to go. Very friendly staff.
