Majority of the menu is gluten free! In fact, this place marks items as “not GF” instead of the other way around which I thought was really cool! They will bring separate chips fried in a dedicated fryer if you ask and all tacos are made with corn tortillas.

Love love love this place! I have gone many times with my sister (also gf), mom, husband, friends, and even daughter! Everyone always finds something delicious. I love the Cobb salad with added steak or the birria tacos. One thing I find so great is that they have the non-gf stuff labeled and are careful and knowledgeable. (Sangria is awesome too!)

The server was well versed in Celiac issues and made sure that my selection was gluten free. I had my first true burrito since I was diagnosed 7+ years ago, and it wasn't bad! Even better, I did not get sick.

Worker understood my allergy with gluten and assured me that they used two fryers. Great menu, theyre able to make certain dishes into gluten free. Nachos, carne asada and chicken tacos were amazing

Love this place! Great food, great service. They are mostly Gf anyway, and the few things that aren’t need minor adjustments and the staff knows what to do to make it GF

Tocolo Cantina offers modern Mexican food in a upscale yet casual atmosphere. 90% of the menu is naturally gluten free as the food uses corn instead of wheat flour in most of the menu. The food is terrific. Tocolo can be found in the Gallery at Westbury Plaza next to Trader Joe’s.
