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******
Typical “gluten sensitive” environment. Dont risk it if you are ncgs or celiac.
Ordered from GS menu:
Sweet Tea
Gluten Sensitive Chips & Salsa Inferno
Nima Tested & Passed: Honey/Chile Pork Tenderloin, charro beans & veggies
Staff did say that the menu is GLUTEN SENSITIVE because they cannot guarantee the meal will be entirely gluten free.

my wife only has half of a colon due to celiac we have tried the gluten-free menu 3 times each time reducing the items and each time a bowel explosion worse than the last the Manager says it's gluten sensitive not gluten-free
Great food, good menu, even make specialty gf chips. Never had a problem with cross contamination, most of the family is gf and never had a problem! We love it!
I brought my own plantain chips. When I asked if a specific dish (tilapia) could be made gluten-free, the manager came over to discuss it with me. The cook prepared it with a different sauce so that it would be gluten-free. I was impressed with how accommodating they were, and the food was delicious. It should be noted that I am not celiac, so I am not as sensitive to cross-contamination.
Though my wife ordered the gluten free chips and a gluten free meal from their menu, there was some cross contamination. My wife is highly sensitive to gluten from her celiac and with 10 minutes she knew she had gluten. For what she ate, she said it was delicious but unfortunately she was sick before we even left

This place needs Gordon Ramsey. Got glutened bad, food super bland and my kids could make a better taco. Stay away if we have any gluten allergy.
Not sure about everyone else’s reviews but I would never go back here!
You’d have better taste making your own food
Very knowledgeable! Baked chips (mostly okay, some weren’t cooked all the way through and chewy) and salsa. I had the tacos with refried beans and seasonal veggies. Very good!
They have a small area on the menu for “Gluten Sensitive” that lists several good entrees. I usually get soft tacos but have also had the shrimp fajita salad. They do offer GF chips if you ask but I do not like those.
I had a great experience! The manager and waitress were very helpful. The waitress checked to make sure salsa was good and brought me my own. Also brought me baked chips. Waitress confirmed gloves were changed. They reassured me all the gf items don’t come in contact with gluten items. Definitely recommend.
It was fine. They baked some chips but they were awful. The tacos were good!
