Dedicated fryer for corn chips! Spoke with the check out guy and he explained clearly their process. Authentic Mexican is hard to find around here, love this place.

Review
Staff wasn’t completely knowledgeable, issues communicating between languages in the kitchen, so difficult to communicate issues with cross-contamination. Great food though, and recommend the burrito bowl as it has no wheat to begin with.

Review
This is a small place with authentic Mexican. I ordered a burrito bowl with spicy chicken and avocado, which ended up being more like guacamole. The food was super fresh and flavorful. Although it was a decent portion, it was just the right amount of food. Zero negative reaction. I would definitely go back and highly recommend it. Note you may need to ask someone other than the cashier about handling your food. But I have confidence that no one else would have an issue.

Review
Great stop to eat at. I got the bowl and they said most things can be made with corn tortillas.
Review
Walk up Mexican food establishment. No dedicated GF menu, but corn tortillas are an option for tacos. Tacos are generously filled and very inexpensive. You can also get your food served in a bowl without a tortilla (this option is not listed but available at the burrito price). After you order at and pickup from a window, there are a few outdoor picnic tables where you can eat. Service can be maddeningly slow, but the food is very good. I have eaten here often and have never had a reaction. I recommend the burrito bowl.

Corn tortilla options for everything. For easy for this celiac to eat at!
