Puerto Viejo

Menu says “most items can be prepared gluten free.” Their fryer is shared, though. The server was very helpful.

I had the oxtail stew, which was very good. My friend and I split the coconut flan and the coconut fudge. The flan was regular flan with toasted coconut on top, fine for what it was. The coconut fudge does not contain chocolate, just a lumpy, thick paste of coconut and sugar. It was good, but I was glad we spilt it, even though it was not big.

The menu is not very clear when ordering online, some items are marked gf but are not actually gf due to a shared fryer. However, the staff are knowledgeable and every time I order they point out what is and is not safe. I order for non-celiac roommates too and they're always very careful to separate and label my food as gf vs the non-gf items. I once ordered through seamless and included an item that was cross contaminated in the fryer, and they called me to explain that and offer a different item instead. Very attentive so long as you note your allergy or celiac/gluten issues on your order.

The pernil with boiled yuca is my favorite!

The menu is marked that most things can be made gluten free. The server knew precisely what I could and could not have. The service was really great! I had the sautéed shrimp with beans and rice. Nima tested - gluten free! The food was delicious. My friends enjoyed their food, and brunch cocktails, too.

I’m celiac and eat here frequently for lunch. Food is great and the lunch special is a good deal. Some of the staff is more knowledgeable than others but I usually order rice and beans with some type of meat and I haven’t gotten sick yet.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve eaten here about 5 times now, haven’t gotten sick once eating main dishes with beans and rice, and I’m very sensitive. Food is great as well ; )

Celiac friendly?

Yes

eaten here and gotten take out multiple times with no issues. Staff is knowledgeable about what I could have and what items risk cross contamination (shared fryer). everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious. One of the owners has Crohns so he understands digestive problems and takes it seriously

Great! This very sensitive celiac was fine. The fryer is NOT dedicated, but the kitchen staff and our server came out and told us beforehand, knew what was ok for severe celiac level intolerance. Educated, friendly staff, amazing food!
