No gluten free menu, but waiter explained they can clean the grill before they make my steak bowl. It was flavorful and I did not get sick. They have corn tortillas as well.

I requested to speak the the chef or kitchen manager after the server didn’t seem to care about my allergy., I had to keep insisting. The chef came out and was very helpful. He was very clear in explaining what’s safe. I hade the steak fajitas with rice and beans. I did not get sick however I may not eat there again because it was not easy to speak with someone in the kitchen and I believe that’s the only way to be safe.

Husband is celiac, asked before we were seated about it and if they had a separate GF menu. The hostess went to ask the kitchen and said they could make some ‘gluten friendly’ food but that it would definitely have some cross contamination so we didn’t eat here.

The management staff was very aware of celiac and GF challenges as well as cross contamination. Our waitress was helpful and communicated with the chief our requests. I think if you made the server aware of your concerns or challenges they would do everything possible to help.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

this place is fine if you avoid the chips but there are limited offerings - you can email them for the list of limited gf menu offerings. These seem to change fairly often (they have updated their menu a few times in the last few years) but usually it’s ceviche, fajitas without marinades,salads without the taco shell etc. I posted a screenshot of their email from November 2023 with the gf offerings at the time and what could be modified to be gf. I do not get sick here but I’m not adventurous when I order here.

As a big uncle Julio’s fan prior to celiac diagnosis, it was disheartening to find out they have zero gluten free options. Everything is marinated in soy sauce and no dedicated fryer for chips.

I used to eat here all the time before going gluten free. They don’t have a gluten free menu but gluten “friendly.”

This is what my server gave me:

No salsa carne, sub queso and no mexican rice

I also ordered the quesa- birria as there is no soy/gluten used in it!

TL/DR not a great GF place. There are much better options in Tulsa at half the price.

I ended up here for a family event with a party of 9. They do not have a gluten free menu. The waiter talked to the kitchen and said everything is marinated in soy sauce so they didn’t have any options. A few minutes later, the waiter came back and said they could do beef or chicken fajitas without the marinade. Great, I ordered beef. All of the meals arrive except mine. I’m told they pre-marinated everything. A few minutes later the manager comes by and says he is making the kitchen prep fresh fajita meat without marinade. I got my meal as everyone else was finishing up. It wasn’t that great. On the plus side I didn’t get sick. They did comp my meal for the trouble.
