Abuelo's

While I was able to eat without getting sick, the food is not very flavorful. If you don't like spicy food, this is your place. I do live 7 miles from Mexico, though, so I'm used to authentic Mexican, and this is not it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This was disappointing. I got a tamale which obviously had been frozen and stuck in the microwave to heat up. When the waitress served it, it was way too hot to eat. It took about 10 minutes to cool down enough to eat. Even then the cheese burned the roof of my mouth. They were expensive for what they are and bland. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience. They may have gluten free options. But I won’t be returning.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

nice restaurant, separate but limited GF menu. Baked chips given as regular tortilla chips are fried in shared fryer. Server even brought me my own salsa dish to avoid cross contamination. Food was ok, plenty of it...but it was not my style of Mexican food. Too jazzed up for me but I appreciated the effort put into caring for my meal.

Delicious food and knowledgeable servers and kitchen staff. Huge portions. GF menu is limited, but includes tacos, chips, and fajitas and salads.

The staff was very knowledgeable. There was a great selection for gluten-free and were even able to answer questions about dairy as well. I do wish there was kid size plate options available.

It was okay. I didn't get sick.

love abuelos!! defiantly a great place to go especially if you have other allergies besides gluten as well. The head chef came to the table and talked to me about my allergies and helped pick the best meal for me.

I had the tamales and they were.., AMAZING

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is ok most of the time. They do have a gf menu, and most of the servers we've had have an awareness of the gf menu. They will bring out baked chips on request. We seem to keep going there anyways until we noticed a pattern: we always order the chicken nuggets for our son, and a few times they have come out raw in the middle. Um, gross. After a few occasions of that we stopped going.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Poor service and overall knowledge of gluten free options. ***chips are NOT gluten free. The food was ok, but not impressive.

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.

The other reviews are incorrect- you ask for gluten free chips. They have a gluten free section of the menu with about eight items.

This place has a limited gluten “sensitive” list on their menu. Mexican food tends to be naturally gluten free, so I was surprised it was such a small list. But, it was tasty. Chips probably are CC, we didn’t ask (husband with celiac didn’t eat them).
