Bartaco

We went there and specifically asked about gluten free items. The man who sat us said everything on the menus was gluten free accept for deserts. Unfortunately we took his word and now my son is vomiting. He had the quesadillas which is made with a flour tortilla. The menu says it contains dairy. Nothing about wheat or gluten. You have to click further on the items and open up more windows to find That the menu it does state this. We should have paid more attention instead of taking worthless information from Someone.

Please be careful out there.

This is one of my go to GF safe places! I love the food here and they are always so accommodating to my Celiac needs. I have never been sick or have had even slight contamination. The staff and Management team are always so pleasant and welcoming! I love Bar Taco and hope they area staple in DP for a long, long time!

Of the 4 times my Celiac daughters and I have eaten here, they messed up once and badly glutened my daughter with the supposed gluten free Baja Fish Tacos.

While the food tasted good on our many visits, they screwed up and glutened my Celiac daughter on our last (and final) visit.

Such great food- even had fried fish tacos! So many GF options I'm going to need a few visits to get them all in. Great cocktails, too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Claudia and manager Patrick are amazing. We are celiac and they have a rice batter on fish tacos and oysters tacos that are unbelievably delicious! Please visit, so delicious!

This is the third city I’ve eaten at a Bartaco. All three are exactly the same.... AMAZING! Sooooo delicious and so many gluten free options!

Great atmosphere, super yummy tacos and guacamole. Everything we had was great. Very accommodating for celiac and felt safe. Highly recommended if you’re in the area for Disney or Universal.

Bartaco is an amazing find!!! Almost everything on the menu is GF! The wait staff was very knowledgeable and the small plates were excellent!! Faith set the gold standard for great wait staff!

Almost the entire menu is gluten free. Servers were very aware of cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

This place is amazing! We stop here to have lunch/dinner whenever we are near to the area. The pork belly tacos and plantains are my favorite! The kids meals are great as well!

Celiac friendly?

This place is amazing! The food is delicious and it has a lovely atmosphere. I really would give it a 5 star on any other site. But, this is a review on a Gluten free site and to be honest there was a possibility of a mishap, if we were not as persistent as we were, about the food brought to the table. My daughter is the one with Celiac and she also has an egg allergy. They had multiple choices for her which was fantastic. We never go out to eat because of cross-contamination, but I felt safe trying this place because they really only had three items on the menu that could possibly contaminate her food. The waitress was amazing and very knowledgeable. Unfortunately, since it was our first time there we didn't realize it was family style ordering. When the food was brought out by someone other than our server we had to ask her multiple times which was the Celiac egg free dishes. She was nonchalant about it which bothered me. So, we gave my daughter the food the server handed to us for her. I went with my gut and told my daughter to wait a minute and we would find out for sure from our waitress if it was safe. The waitress pulled it up quickly and the manager came out with our daughter's food. Nobody had mentioned that the manager would deliver her food. As with any other restaurant you have to really watch out. But like I said earlier this is a gluten-free site and I'm writing it as a gluten-free review. We will definitely go back again sometime, but having that extra bit of knowledge really does help.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is amazing!!!! Great food. Celiac friendly. Duck and pork belly tacos were my favorite!!! Also the corn fritters were delicious!!! Definitely come here!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Everything except dessert is gluten free and was delicious. The duck taco was my favorite and a unique blend of flavors, Chicken churrizo was also incredible

Highly recommend it!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was great and the service attentive. Ate my weight in tacos, with the confit duck being a personal favourite. Would eat here again, no questions asked!

Actually mark what's not gf rather than what is since they have so much. Corn Fritters, AMAZING! Service great. Tacos look small but are filling. Definitely will return.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff and general manger were excellent. The food is fresh and delicious. Price is excellent for the portions. Make sure you get the street corn fritters. Everything is gluten free except desserts. I would not take small children. No regrets at all and I’m pretty picky. I will be back!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not helpful with gluten free options. Disappointing taco’s, very small with little filling. The side of brown rice was clumpy. Sat at the bar and the Bar tender was on his phone more than serving the customers. Gave it three stars for the atmosphere. Not worth the trip.

Everything was great! All food and drinks made from scratch. The cocktails were amazing. The Baja taco was light and crispy. Service was great, too! Impressive all around!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

So many gluten free options that they actually mark what is NOT gluten free on the menu (only 5 items 4 are desserts). Shared 3 appetizers plantains in a dedicated fryer, pork tamale, and blistered shishitos for tacos we shared Baja fish in a dedicated fryer, falafel, pork belly, rock shrimp, and Portobello mushroom. We also shared grillled street corn, and didn't have room for our ahi tuna rice bowl so we took that home. They have 1 dessert option spiced chocolate pudding. I have not 1 complaint. Everything was delicious, the staff was friendly and very knowledgeable to cross contamination. Will be eating here again in the near future

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing! I have Celiac and am rarely able to eat out. I had no issues eating here. Great atmosphere, not too busy,l. I was told that everything on the menu is gluten free except for one soup and some desserts. All the tacos, sauces, chips and fryers are gluten free. Their tacos are a smaller, tapas style size where you order by the taco. All the flavors I tried were awesome and best of all, I felt great afterwards, never got sick! I will definitely be back when I come back in town.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Down in Orlando for a week-ate here four times! Absolutely safe and delicious for us two celiacs and family

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was delicious and majority of menu naturally gluten free! Tacos are smaller scale and made with corn tortillas. I’ve been many times and always great. Dedicated fryer...make sure you inform them of allergies. They put a butter spray on chips....make sure you let them know if you cannot tolerate and they will eliminate that step.

Amazing. There are maybe 4 items on the entire menu that contain gluten. Most of those are desserts. The food was incredible and the service was just as good. The rice bowls are killer good! Especially the pork belly!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Absolutely incredible! Almost everything is gluten free, items that aren't are clearly marked on the menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

freaking awesome food and staff. will bring my mom who is also celiac like me

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We happened to walk by and decided to check out the menu. Turns out, they only mark the items that are NOT gluten free with an asterisk. I was told by 3 of the workers that 90% of the menu is naturally gluten free and that they will note it on the order as well. Because we had already eaten dinner, we didn't get a chance to try the tacos but I did order the Spiced Chocolate Pudding w/Hazelnut topping for desert and it was amaaaaaaazing. So far so good, excited to come back and try the rest of the menu! Oh and also, there drink menu looks awesome! 🍸😉

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I LOVE BarTaco. Will forever be one of my favorite must-eat places in Stamford. Most of the food is gluten free, so much so that they actually mark the ones *containing* gluten on the menu. The duck tacos are my absolute favorite. Their drinks are so fresh and the chips/salsa/guac trio is a must order.

In addition to celiac, the allergies at our table were: wheat, shellfish, peanuts and sunflower. Issues eating here: ZERO.

They added a fried oyster taco. Yummy. We also had guac, empanadas, street corn, duck tacos, and chicken soup. Everything was 100% delicious!

Almost everything on the menu is gluten free. When I called to inquire they told me they are “the gluten free Mecca!” And they were right. Everything is so good and fresh ingredients. Let them know about the severe gluten allergy and didn’t get sick. Would definitely go back!

Ordered the kids chicken taco and a fruit skewer for my 6yo son with Celiac. I called the day before and they told me that typically the child’s tacos come with a flour tortilla, so I made sure when we called to order I mentioned it was for a child with Celiac and specifically asked for a corn tortilla. They clearly marked this on the ticket (we saw it taped to the bag at pickup). When my husband picked up the food, they said that they only have corn tortillas that are gluten free. Only thing on the menu with gluten are the churros. Reasonably priced and delicious! Our son is somewhat picky and after the first two bites said the taco was delicious! We’ll be back!

Amazing food, one of our favorites! Most items are GF and servers are knowledge. We eat their food just about weekly!

Almost everything was GF. As my wife is the only GF person in the house being able to order the family platter of tacos and have the whole thing be GF was awesome. They also have an allergy matrix which is very easy to read and there only seemed to be deserts and kids items that had gluten. Curbside pickup in Reston was also seamless. The food was ready right at the estimated time of pickup from ordering online.

Great place, delicious food! However the fryers are NOT dedicated to gluten free foods. I had the baja fish tacos and was told they were gluten free. The batter coating is gluten free but the fryers are not because they also fry churros in therm so I had a reaction after eating them. Other than the fryers, they are celiac friendly and otherwise knowledgable about gluten containing food items!

The staff was able to answer all of my questions. They have 7 fryers and all but one is gluten free. Everything is served with corn tortillas unless otherwise specified. All alcoholic drinks except some beer were gluten free. Can eat most of what’s on the menu.

Lobster and fried fish taco are excellent! Was able to eat the homemade chips and salsa which were also very good. Most items are gluten free.

This location doesn’t have table service you order online after downloading the QR code. At first it’s kind of a hassle since no one is there to Answer questions but they are helpful once you get someone to your table. After figuring it out it’s quite convenient. And ordering additional food or drinks is very convenient as well. Service was quick

There are many GF options. I am allergic to casein and eggs as well and the staff are right on in this area. I have never had an issue and I eat there three times per month. The food is excellent and I recommend the salsa verde (YUM!) I put it on everything and it’s so fresh every time. The staff at Bartaco Stamford are very friendly and allergy aware. They immediately notify the manager of the GF order and double check the allergies with items ordered with the manager. I feel very safe eating here and I recommend it highly. It’s actually the only restaurant in Stamford besides Teff that I feel safe eating at or from. If you go on their website they list every item on the menu with the top allergens including gluten for each item in a graph type layout.

This is a corporate chain taco place, but damn if it ain't good. The majority of the menu is GF. And everything I've tried is tasty. I've probably been here too many times at the expense of my other local taco joints. Shout out to Taqueria la Vaquita and Super Taqueria!

Bartaco is so delicious and almost every menu item is GF. I went to Bartaco 3 times in 2 weeks after I found out about my gluten sensitivity. Can’t wait to go back!

In love with the service and food!!!!

No reaction great options . Little spicy on some things when you don't expect it but great flavor.

Delicious, spicy Salsa Rojo. Tacos were good. Great setting and location. Menu all GF except desserts.

I’m a very sensitive celiac and this has been my go-to place for months. Never had any issues at any of the locations!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Rather than marking what’s gluten free on the menu, they mark what isn’t, which makes sense considering almost the entire menu is gluten free. Great food, and plenty of choices.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was very helpful and walked me through the menu. There are vegan options as well (the cauliflower and Brussels sprouts tacos were delicious). Really good flavors in all the food. My friends who are not gluten free enjoyed the food as much as I did.

Basically whole menu is gluten free and dairy free friendly. Highly reccomend. Make sure you get there early, it fills up fast

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Everything on menu GF except deserts and pork tacos. Great atmosphere and delicious food. After chips and three different salsa type dishes, devoured several street tacos and half roasted chicken. We will be back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not only is the food excellent but almost the entire menu is gluten free (the desserts contain gluten besides ice cream)! There also are separate fryers for GF items. Order by checking boxes on a card and there is a clear spot to specify your allergies. Servers were extremely knowledgeable about Celiac. I tested the tortilla chips, roja salsa, and chicken empanadas with my Nima Sensor and no gluten was found! I also ate a chicken and pork taco and did not feel the need to test any further - did not get sick. Food, drinks, atmosphere, and staff are awesome. Highly recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wow! My new obsession! Guac was fresh and phenomenal. I love that every taco BUT the carnitas is GF. The baja were great and the pork belly were my absolute favorite. The manager told us how serious they take celiac... a manager handles the ticket and they use a red card to show whats gf and whats not. An awesome find!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Super delicious! Great taco spot! Have a margarita! All fresh ingredients. Definitely recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Excellent food! Chips are safe and the guacamole is amazing!

Celiac friendly?

Great restaurant and almost everything on the menu is gf - even their fried options.

My daughter loved her GF quesadillas, however she got sick from them. Just spoke to restaurant- said they can confirm quesadillas were GF but they were “horrified” to tell me they were cooked on a shared surface that cooks flour tortilla quesadillas. However, when I spoke to the waitress when ordering, she seemed to understand my daughter couldn’t tolerate cross contamination and I wrote this in the allergy section of the ticket... We thought the food was good, would go back without her, just not celiac safe if you order quesadillas..: though there are mainly all gluten free menu options besides the flour tortilla quesadilla!

Celiac friendly?

No

This place is sooo cute, fun music, friendly staff, delicious food. Let them know you are gf.. they take it serious. Have gf tacos. Pork tacos are not gf. Must order guac+Roja+vieja !! FYI their “grilled” chicken is like rotisserie (mixture of white and dark meat). Chicken chorizo taco and bowls are to die for lol Must try at Seaport!!

Outstanding! Those street corn fritters are heavenly!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

There are more gluten-free things on their menu than non gluten-free so they mark the things with gluten. The staff is super great about explaining everything to you and their allergy process not just for gluten but any allergy. They use a separate order card and tray for customers with dietary restrictions. I've eaten here twice and not gotten sick. It's also very nice that they use a gluten free flour in their breaded fish.

Some of the best tacos in town. I love that you can mix and match different kinds. I highly recommend the brussel sprouts taco.

So delicious! Almost everything is GF. Chips are made in a separate fryer and so are the seafood items.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Like their other locations they take allergies and Celiac seriously. Dedicated fryers for individual items and unusual gluten-free treats (did someone say corn fritters?!?). Greatly recommend the Brussel Sprouts taco, man that sauce 🤤!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very few items with gluten actually in them on the menu. I love that you order by filling out a form so I could note the gluten concerns and not have to explain another time. The waiter also reviewed it with me.

great atmosphere, delicious and safe for celiacs! no reaction at all! i will definitely be back.

Celiac friendly?

They have a fully gluten free menu except just a few items. Tacos all come in GF corn tortillas and most other items are GF. Delicious and safe. Brand new also. Just opened 3 months ago. Have also been to the location in NY. Same menu. Both amazing

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff is always on top of the celiac accommodation. They make it so easy. They are also so friendly and professional. I took my very sensitive celiac child and she loved it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious! The chicken soup was amazing and so were all the tacos (shrimp, fish, duck, and portobello). The rice bowl was fine, but probably wouldn’t order it again considering how amazing the tacos are. Virtually everything is gluten free. Highly recommend.

Their menu was almost entirely gluten free and everything that was not was very clearly marked. Tons of options to choose from! I had the lunch platter with a cauliflower, mushroom, and chicken pastor taco with a side of chicken soup. I also added a pork belly taco. The chips and salsa and guacamole platter was also gf. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and informed me that they would clear an area to cook on for me. This was my favorite meal in Nashville!! I would recommend to everyone celiac or not. UPDATE: I did go here on another trip to Nashville and wanted to order the mojo pork carnitas. They did let me know they were made with a GLUTEN REMOVED beer so they weren't safe for celiac! This wasn't listed on the menu so be careful with that.

Celiac friendly?

The staff was fantastic about my gluten and soy intolerance! Very helpful, good food, creative menu. I’ll go back!

Great GF options! The tacos are awesome!
