We ate here twice & felt fine both times. The chips and salsa were yummy! Shredded chicken nachos were my choice & it was enough to feed 2-3 people!

Gluten free menu. The chips are in a dedicated GF fryer. Their servings are huge. My chicken nachos will last me two meals. Every chip had cheese and chicken on it. Highly recommend.

They have a fairly large gluten friendly menu with numerous items being naturally gluten free. Waitress was helpful and kind.

I have been there twice. Both times had chips (dedicated fryer)and salsa, and Carne asada tacos (no rice or beans) from the gf menu. The food was great.

We recently moved to the area and came to Ajo Al’s based on the reviews here. I had the spinach enchiladas. And enjoyed every last bite. I told them I had celiac. Unfortunately, My food was cross contaminated and I was “glutened”. I told myself it was something else because it was so tasty I didn’t want it to be true and the reviews were so good! So we went again. This time I asked for a separate menu- none. There are only the limited 3 or 4 on the menu. I asked the waiter how they handled GF items and he had to go ask. I don’t think he knows what gluten is. The manager came to our table and flat out said they could not guarantee the food is celiac safe as there is flour all over the kitchen. We won’t be back. And I’m sad.

Good food, but limited gluten free menu. Also, the hostess only knows there is a separate gluten-free menu about half the time. Is also marked gf on regular menu. Have had the mushroom, chicken, and spinach enchiladas and chicken fajitas with no issues.
