My waiter was very kind and probably went back to the kitchen 5 times to double check my questions.

Just tread lightly here and ask if you are uncertain. I found out the chips are NOT cooked in a dedicated fryer, but the waiter had the cooks bake the chips in a different pan. Although, not as tasty, it was a nice effort.

All four members of my family have varying degrees of gluten intolerance. The gluten sensitive menu is extremely limited with most meats not gluten free- including the fajita chicken and steak. Our only meat option for tacos was ground beef. All four of us became very ill and my daughter had a gluten induced asthma attack. No way was this just cross-contamination. I seriously doubt their ground beef is gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

No

It's just okay. Good service, though!

Very little gluten free options, which is extremely disappointing considering its a Mexican restaurant. Additionally after already asking about gluten I was served chips that weren't gluten free.

There is a separate gluten sensitive corner on the menu with enough choices. And I couldn’t choose and the chef made a surprise dinner for me. Super tasteful and super nice. 10/10. Can I move this restaurant to the Netherlands? ;-)

My husband and I eat here regularly. They have a gluten sensitive menu. There is no dedicated fryer, but they will bring you baked chips. Only one of the salasas (green) is gluten free. Portions are huge and we always have left overs. Staff is always nice.
