Barrio Queen

Do not eat here if celiac. The manager told us the kitchen was too small to make anything safe from gluten. We were there for a large birthday dinner & she allowed us to bring in outside food (for our daughter w celiac).

Festive atmosphere! We dined on the patio, for dinner. Beautiful set up! The staff was more than happy to tell me about their gluten free options and they were very accommodating! I had the chicken fajita with the corn tortillas. I have Celiac, and I get violently sick if I and “glutened”, and I had no issues at all, after my experience here! Our server (Madison) was very confident about what is and/or could be modified gluten free! With no worries about cross contamination. Great margarita, as well!

Waitress said almost all tacos were GF except the beer battered fish. I did see one that was made with soy sauce that she didn’t point out, so I stayed away from that and did just fine. Chips are a shared fryer, so avoid. The house margarita was awesome! For tacos, had the steak asada with chorizo and queso, the grilled fish, and the chicken with pico and cheese, all delicious and no reaction

They do not have a dedicated fryer for tortilla chips so we left and went to the Desert Ridge (Tatum) location instead. They can do other dishes gf here, but I did not have a lot of confidence after the waiter flippantly said “other people eat it and are fine”

Celiac friendly?

No

Food was good. Went with some tacos and a side of refried black beans. This isn't what some of you may expect from Mexican food as you won't find things like burritos which are more of an American invention than true Mexican food.

Didn't get sick, which is always a good thing for a celiac. I'd steer clear of anything fried since they beer batter fish. That goes for chips and salsa.

Waiter wasn't very knowledgeable, but nice and did investigate when I asked if the tea was GF.

Parking tip: free parking garage underground behind/beneath the restaurant. Come up the spiral staircase and you are not too far from the restaurant.

Staff very knowledgeable and many options!

Amazing GF food, great atmosphere. I would tell anyone this is s must.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Most of the menu is gluten free. Staff is knowledgeable and prices are reasonable. Mole chicken is delicious. Great choice for gluten sensitive.

I stopped on a food tour. We had a margarita, chips and sampled two tacos. The tacos are gluten free. The chips are fried in house but in a shared fryer with churros (which are dough). The server was friendly about it and knowledgeable.
