Amazing experience! Everyone was so friendly. Our waitress was very knowledgeable and explained the process they use in ensuring food safety. Dedicated fryer for chips! I had the enchiladas verde, chips & queso & guac, and their house margarita.

I had the chicken tinga tacos. They come with blue corn tortillas. I got 2, which was plenty with beans and rice and starter of chips and salsa. Waiter knowledgeable. . Quick service. I think I’m in love?

There was no separate GF menu, and nothing on the menu was marked as GF. I had no confidence that our server knew what gluten was or whether anything was safe to eat. I had chicken fajitas with just vegetables. No rice,beans, or tortillas.

Service was good as far as friendly and quick, but I would not consider this a celiac safe option despite really positive earlier reviews (which is why I went).

Went with my celiac daughter bc had read it was celiac friendly. Told server we had an extreme allergy. Server promised chips were safe, and she ate the insides of a fajita without tortilla (steak and veggies). Within 2 hours of our meal She was super sick and down for days. Not sure what was to blame, but we won't be going back.

Wonderful restaurant, most items could be made gluten-free. Chips and tacos are gluten free. Everything was fantastic and our server was very attentive. Will be going back soon!

Great food. All of the gluten free options are clearly marked on the menu. You have a pretty good range of choices. I’ve gotten the nachos a couple times and verdes enchiladas were both delicious. I have never had any issues with getting sick when I’ve eaten there. If you are doing take out and it will be a while before you eat maybe don’t get the queso, it was good it just cooled off to much by the time I could get it home and reheating it didn’t go too well.

My friend and I ordered Totopos to go the other day and I was highly disappointed with my Totopos experience. I did not get sick from gluten which is a major plus, but it was hard to get clear information on whether the rice and beans were gluten-free so I only ate the tacos. The food quality and price were not worthwhile. Two mediocre Chicken Tinga Tacos for $14.99 (one shell was also moist and fell apart as soon as it was picked up) and two mediocre Al Pastor Tacos for $13.99. Highly overpriced for two mediocre tasting tacos. If the tacos were superior in taste and quality it might be justified. The website also clearly states each order came with 3 tacos but we only got two of each. As far as gluten-free goes I can vouch as a Celiac that I didn't get sick but that the tacos were suprisingly void of flavor.

Delicious!!! Many GF options (most of menu gf). The chips are fried in a dedicated fryer (yay!). Enjoyed a strawberry margarita, chips and queso, and a bowl with Tinga. Very fresh and authentic cuisine. So good we ate here twice on vacation :)

It’s been so hard to find gluten free Mexican Food! THIS is the first restaurant I have eaten chips, salsa and queso since I was 9! They have a separate fryer for their chips so they are allergy safe. The queso is not marked gluten free, but through lots of questions and a helpful waiter, we were able to determine the queso is gluten free they just forgot to mark it on the menu. It’s DELICIOUS queso. I have gotten the enchiladas with chicken tinga, they are good but spicy. My favorite is the nachos! I have gotten them probably 10 times without getting sick! It’s awesome to be able to enjoy some good nachos. I highly recommend this place. And their menu has allergy information labeled. I’m a regular. I love it

Food was pretty great, drinks were fantastic. Server was pretty knowledgeable, but did not seem to understand the severity. Menu is labeled as to what is or can be GF, which was awesome. I did get sick but I think I’m allergic to plantains and there’s a good chance that made me sick not cross contamination.
