I couldn’t have the Cuban of course, but a lot of different a la carte things worked for me and it was pretty cheap. The tamales and yellow rice were amazing and I think I had the yuca fries (posting this a bit late because I didn’t have this app when I went).

No GF menu and server had no idea when asked… but the arroz con pollo didn’t make my sensitive daughter sick - flan was excellent

I came here with a group of friends and had a very hard time finding anything tasty to eat. I brought a gf travel card (in English) and asked a lot of questions, but had trouble communicating with our server. He eventually checked with his manager and they were able to get me some grilled red snapper (plain, no sauce), roasted veggies, and a salad with vinegar and oil. Safe, but not tasty and not representative of the Cuban menu. I had no symptoms afterward but wouldn’t come back.

Quintessential Cuban-American Restaurant in Little Havana. There is no gluten free menu but there are many inherently gluten free options on the menu. Hubby has celiac disease and loves coming here. Stay away from anything fried or breaded as the fryer is not dedicated. Hubs regularly eats the plantains and has never had a problem.

I ordered the salmon and it was incredible. It came with fried plantains which I obviously did not eat. The chocolate mousse dessert is actually a chocolate mousse cake with two thjn layers of cake. It was easy enough to separate the cake from the mousse, but do not order it if you are sensitive to cross contamination.

Went because was highly praised by a friend. A lot of the menu is probably innately gluten free. Waiter had no idea what gluten was (decent language barrier) I ordered the fricase de pollo with rice and plantains. Probably in the same fryer as other foods. If you are really sensitive would not recommend, but overall I had no reaction and it was pretty tasty! The mojitos were amazing

It was worth the short walk through the terminal. The waitress lad a list of gluten free burger components and was friendly. Was told no gluten foods are put in the dryer so I went with the sweet potato fries.
Will update if any issues arises. 03/09/20

Delicious food. Our server was able to guide me through celiac friendly choices. Great place.

I was very impressed with the knowledge of manager Jose Perez when dealing with GF. He came to my table and went over the entire menu with me. While my waitresses Isa and Dayli were aware of the restrictions , there was a language barrier and they wanted to confirm my choices with Jose. I had a pleasant dining experience and would highly recommend this restaurant. We waited about an hour but had Cuban coffee at the coffee bar next to the main restaurant. Definitely worth the wait !!!!
Yes
The food was tasty, but it was not celiac friendly in our experience. There was a language barrier w the staff, and because it was so busy, it felt like our questions were an unwelcome annoyance. The meal our waiter and the manager insisted were gluten free caused my daughter who has celiac to get very sick that night.
No
Delicious chicken breast with veggies and white rice
Yes
Amazing food. Cuban food tends to be pretty simple and free from hidden gluten, so I felt comfortable taking a chance. The waiter confirmed with the kitchen that the roasted pork was GF, and it was delicious. I thought I’d be able to try the cheese flan, but the kitchen said it wasn’t safe for me.
