The girl I talked to asked her manager about GF options and I was told that if it doesn't have flour or is in flour it's safe. I also did research on the company and the owner's daughter is a celiac. The food has really good flavor and chips are great. A pretty good GF place in The Colony! I didn't have a reaction so know that the Rusty tacos, pork taco and chips and queso are safe.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I stopped in based on the review that they had GF items here & the manager didn't know what "gluten free" even was. I decided not to risk it & left. so, even though they may have good food (?), it's not known to be safe for GF diners.

Excellent street tacos with options for the GF diner. Beef fajitas were yummy!

Margs are gluten-free. I eat the chips and queso there but I don’t think they are that careful about cross-contamination, I wouldn’t trust the tacos or other food there

Excellent Fish Taco! Manager came out and double checked my order to make sure all ingredients were gf and cooked up everything in a separate pan.

Had the breakfast tacos. No symptoms but was concerned about cross contamination there’s one open griddle to make all food. Open kitchen so you can see the process. Would recommend asking cook to change gloves.

This is right next to ASU’s campus. Fun ambiance. Good outdoor patio/bar space. Large TVs with sports on. Came here on a Saturday afternoon during a college football game. It wasn’t very busy so keep that in mind as the service I got may differ if it were slammed. Ordered at the bar and the bartender was friendly and helpful. He for out the allergy chart to confirm correct information. All tacos except the ones with fried meat can be made GF on corn tortillas. After I ordered the bartender went to the kitchen to tell them to be sure to clean the grill, change gloves, etc. When they brought the food out they said they put it in a separate pan so it shouldn’t have touched anything. Had the Green Street and Rusty tacos (both pork). They were delicious. They have breakfast tacos served all day. Also had a prickly pear margarita on the rocks. Didn’t get sick. Would eat here again.
