My son is Celiac. This place has several gf options, and the staff asked about special dietary equirements/allergies. We used to go here before the diagnosis and always liked the food here.

They have a coconut ‘tortilla’ shell for the burritos and cauliflower rice. It is fast casual but the staff kept offering drink refills (they had a lot of great aguas frescas). The decor was very hip and comfortable. I will definitely be back to try other burrito combinations.

Great GF and dairy free experience. Had a quesadilla with vegan cheese, chicken and mushrooms- and amazing churro bites with sauce. So good!

Ate here and it was delicious, and I had no issues.

We had a variety of tacos (really recommend the fried mushroom and the fried mahi mahi), and the quesadillas. The churro bites were also great for dessert.

We didn’t have the bowls, so I can’t say whether they are a safe option.

The one comment I’d make is service was very very slow, so if you’re in a rush this isn’t the place to go to. Apart from that we had a very positive experience.
