My server and the manager were wonderful. They checked everything before serving it to me. Gluten-free chips aren’t on the menu, but they had them upon request. Had the Shrimp Fajita Salad. Ranch wasn’t Gluten-free, so I added their green sauce. So good!

Two stars because they do have a GF menu (ask the hostess). However, their back of house process are broken and my GF was served gluten. We caught it two or three bites in.

We spoke with the manager and she agreed to re-evaluate processes. Kitchen did not get the message that the dish was supposed to be GF.

Had a wonderful GF meal here. The menu offers several options for GF dining. I chose 3 tamales and a vegetable medley…absolutely delicious. Can’t wait to go back!

Our waitresses were awesome and sympathetic, they asked the kitchen lots of questions for us to make sure we avoided cross contamination. They have a separate gluten free menu that you can ask for, which is pretty small but has some tasty options! They special made my fiancé chips using the oven instead of the fryer. So far he has no gastrointestinal issues!

My husband loves Mexican food and found this place that carry gluten-free menu. He ordered tamales, lime rice and refried beans. It was delicious and very pleased with the waitress that are familiar with gluten-free. Also have baked tortillas chips that are gluten-free with sauces. Will definitely come back.

Went with a lunch group and you can’t order anything off the lunch menu (GF) They won’t tweak it. The waiter didn’t want to hear about it. The other GF limited menu was dinner prices. Food was not above average for Mexican.

I’ve eaten here 4x. I always get the same order- gluten free tacos. I’ve not had any issues at all. The gf chips are not good though so I don’t bother with those. They also make fantastic margaritas.

Very limited gluten sensitive menus but the food is still amazing….. the server even asked if I wanted baked chips instead of the fried chips as they are fried in the same frier as everything else.

Even tho the menu items are limited the food and service is great. Not celiac safe******
