Teocalli Cocina

Worth the wait. We came on a Friday at 6 pm. It took over an hour to get a table. They take reservations so consider making one.

The food is incredible. I had hanger steak (carne asada) taco, tempura fried avocado taco, and Tijuana style shrimp taco. The tortillas are excellent. They don’t fall apart! Tijuana style is like a taco quesadilla. It’s folded over and fried closed. The light sauces were tangy.

My wife had a hanger steak plate. The kids had hanger steak tacos. They both wanted to have hanger steak every night.

We had the salsa trio with chips for a starter. The Macha with peanut was amazing. It had a hint of sweetness. The guacamole convinced me to put much more lime in my guacamole at home.

We had churros and chocolate pano cotta. I haven’t had a churro since I was a kid. Crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, held together, how do they do that?

As good as it gets at a restaurant. Dedicated gluten free restaurant. Nothing you can’t order and nothing you need to worry about. Even the quesadillas are gluten free. And it’s incredible food. This place is usually PACKED though. So keep that in mind on a Friday or Saturday evening.

No problem with celiac here, it’s entirely gluten free and delicious! Had chips and guacamole and tacos and some cocktails. Churros for dessert and they are as good as everyone else is saying-I became emotional! It’s just so hard to find good food for celiacs and restaurants and this was a joyful experience! Definitely check it out!

The queso fantastic, the brussels sprouts appetizer was outstanding, and the churros……mind blowing.

This is one of my go to restaurants when I'm meeting friends or family in the area. I've ordered a number of the dishes and haven't found anything that I didn't like. The churros are so good. Finding a gluten free churros is challenging but one that even my friends and family enjoy is even better.

I tried this place my very first week post-celiac diagnosis. What a wonderful feeling, to look around and know that I could safely order anything and fear nothing! Thank you for the solid, Teocalli.

Plus everything is genuinely delicious. 3/4 of my party weren't celiac but nobody missed their gluten one bit. Particularly enjoyed the birria tacos and churros! I will be back and back and back yet again.

The entire restaurant is gluten free and to die for. The chicken quesadilla is an all around fav in my whole family! They also have gluten free churros which are a rare find. The staff is always super friendly. The only thing is that it’s always really busy but located so that you can walk around cute downtown Lafayette while you wait. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in the area!

My partner and I (he’s celiac and highly sensitive) have eaten here several times now and he has never had an issue. Favorites so far are the churros as well as pork belly, pescado, shrimp and carne asada tacos. Great margs and cocktails too! I’d agree with it being a bit loud inside. Also, dog friendly. They provide water bowls and have a strip of grass for dogs out of the way but close.

It’s great that there is a dedicated GF Mexican food. We went to the Olde Wadsworth location. I enjoyed chicken enchiladas, chips and salsa trio. My husband was not a fan. He felt they were overrated and overpriced and the food had too much salt. Which is true. I had dry mouth all night and got up a few times to get some water. I also ended up be the worst heartburn that I have had in a long time. I laid propped up all night.

I was very surprised that they were that as busy as they were. There is where the problem started. We had a reservation. We got there early, they said is was a 44-50 minute wait for walk up. We asked if we could get first available. We ended sitting at our scheduled time. There were plenty of tables available all through the wait. It seemed like they really didn’t want us there because we are older and they cater to a younger crowd. And the staff had a bit of an attitude towards us. Even though we spent over 100.00. Which is too bad. They have a great thing going. But it won’t be going well long, if they don’t adjust their attitude.-

LOVE this restaurant! I’ve eaten here a dozen times or so and have never gotten sick. Everything on their menu is GF so the options are endless. They even have a great selection of GF desserts! This is one of the few restaurants that I feel completely comfortable ordering food and not worrying about cross contamination.

Everything is gluten free and very good. We had the Shrimp and Mango habanero ceviche and it was amazing. The carnitas tacos, enchiladas, and gluten free tempura fish was delicious. A big highlight was the gluten free churros that tasted just like regular churros but where made with corn flower. I would definitely go back and try their esquites, chicken quesadillas, queso fundido, and much more!

I have eaten here twice. Both times I got the carnitas plate with rice, beans, tortillas and then a churro on the side. (Well, 4 since that’s how many are in an order.) Legitimately some of the best carnitas I’ve ever had. Very generous portions and the churros are awesome. They don’t taste gluten free. But they are! This spot is dedicated gf, great atmosphere and friendly staff. It’s so nice not to have to interview a server before ordering or wait to see if I’m going to get sick after eating at a restaurant. Love this place.

Absolutely delicious and such a comfort knowing it’s 100% gluten free. My husband and friends didn’t feel like they missed out on anything either by the menu. It was all so tasty and delicious - couldn’t even tell there wasn’t any gluten.

Delicious Mexican food in a cute town easily accessible by train from Union Station. Teocalli food is 100 percent GF. We had fresh, hot tortilla chips with guacamole and queso. Tacos are tasty. Husband had ahi tuna over corn purée that looked beautiful and he said was delicious. Margarita was tasty. They have local GF beer as well.

Dedicated Gluten Free facility. Allergy friendly menu available, tells you how to modify menu items to work around allergens. Staff has good understanding of menu and how to modify or will get help.

Getting around my multiple allergens was super easy here! There’s a phone menu that adjusts the menu based on multiple allergens. What I chose wasn’t great, but the other people with me said their food was really good. (Hence the four stars.) It was super loud inside so maybe go at an off time if you want to focus on conversation. I’ll go back but definitely try another dish.

I got the pork Pibil, chicken and pork carnitas tacos as well as the Transplante drink. I do avoid corn, so did not get anything that specifically had corn in it and subbed lettuce for the tortilla. Everything was amazing. I never eat out at restaurants because I’m so sensitive, and I didn’t get sick here at all! I can’t wait to come back and order like 5 chicken tacos because they were amazing!

They do not advertise as such but there is no gluten in any kitchen item. They also have a virtual allergen menu that allows you to pick your allergen(s). The menu tells you which items you can order and how to modify the item for it to be safe for said allergen (including recommendations to ask for to avoid cross contact preparation). Lastly, they have tempura batter and churros, two things a celiac is almost never able to order.
