I got the enchiladas. I could barely tell a gluten free tortilla was in there. It was all mush under a pile of melted cheese. The people I was with weren’t very impressed with their non-gluten free options. The table next to us had the nachos and they looked so bland. I won’t be going back.

The GF menu had 8 items on it - 4 were appetizers, 4 main dishes. The 4 main dishes were cheese quesadilla, cheese enchiladas, bbq pork quesadilla and beef & bean burrito. Server was not knowledgeable if other items could be GF with an item or two removed - like salads. Would not return.

Great service - our server was knowledgeable and brought me gluten-free tortilla chips and salsa. The gluten-free menu had a good range of items. I ordered the Big Willie’s Beef Burrito. It was huge and I had to bring two-thirds of it home. Food was flavorful and I left happy.

Made fun of me when I said I couldn’t eat gluten or dairy. Was very offended and left upset feeling like it was my fault that I was allergic to these items. Expected more, was disappointed.

Excellent staff who go out of their way to make sure you enjoy your gf meal. They serve the gf dish separate from the other dinners. I get my own special chips & salsa so no one contaminates my serving. The only gf dessert is ice cream. I have a great time every time I go with no worries!

My father and I have celiacs and we figured a Mexican restaurant would be easy for dinner. We were handed the regular menu (very extensive) and then when we asked for a gluten free menu, we were given a menu with a little more than 10 items on it. No tacos, no fajitas... Basically the only options were a variation of vegetarian quesadillas, ribs, and chicken wings. All the meat fillings were seasoned with gluten. They did offer gluten free chips (tasted like Tostitos) with the salsa. Not recommended if you need to stick to the gluten free menu! Also, the food was bad.

Great food and terrific choices. Our server even went into the kitchen to inquire about a menu selection that wasn't on gf menu. Slow service, it took forever to get our food. But good drinks and great chips and salsa!!

Ice cold Redbridge & a package of Mission tortilla chips was the best thing going for the place. Despite the waitress trying, the kitchen sent out a non GF meal rather than what was ordered. House bought us a beer for the mistake. But ribs were overcooked, rice was bland. Had high hopes but even it's fabulously kitschy atmosphere couldn't save it.

They do have a gluten free menu. I got bagged chips that were GF with salsa, the GF beer was pretty good too (nice and ice cold). Chili, ribs and enchilada's all good.

Gluten wise it was fine. I didn’t get sick, had the quesadilla. But my boyfriends non GF meal gave him food poisoning. He’s been sick since 45 mins after leaving the restaurant. We won’t go back.
