Beware - Went there Monday for lunch. To start the chips were baked - so far good, 3 types of salsa was left on the table with no information- only one was gf - it would have been nice to share that. The manager brought my food and said it was gf with gf tortillas. I ate one of the tortillas then started to compare with what my wife had. They looked the same. Called back the waitress to ask - she said it was gf then was not sure - then determined it was not. Bottom line I got sick - it is now Friday just starting to feel better. I was traveling on business and the rating was good. If you give them a shot double check everything & good luck you may need it.

Amazing! They were so kind and helpful! When I went there recently, I mentioned my gluten allergy and the need for staff to clean prep areas, change gloves, etc. The staff was really nice and made sure everything would be taken care of! They even have a menu devoted to gluten-free items!

Their gluten free pork fajitas with corn tortillas were delicious! I also loved that they offered gluten free corn chips to go with the green salsa. It made me feel less "left out" when I was dining with my friends that do not have a food allergy.

The restaurant and bathrooms were also kept tidy as well!

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.

Slim offerings. Soft tacos were okay a little bland. Only rice availability GF was lime cilantro which was not what I was hopping for.

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******
