By far my favorite restaurant as a celiac. The tacos are unmatched (especially the pork belly). Great atmosphere and many locations around Boston. It's also super affordable!

Service was great! Four people ordered 16 tacos, chips and guac, and the cucumber salad. Favorites were the pork belly, oyster, and baja fish tacos.

UNREAL. I was in Boston for 72 hours and ate here twice, once for lunch and once for dinner. It’s that good. Me and my non celiac boyfriend agreed that the tacos were filled with so much flavor - the pork belly was our favorite. Started with chips and Guac and salsa and it was delicious. Cucumber salad and tajin pineapple were also great starters.

The speciality non alcoholic drinks were delicious - pomegranate lemonada was my favorite of the ones I tried.

I felt very safe - most of the menu is gluten free - all tacos are on corn tortillas. Only gluten is on the kids menu and desserts. I was assured that gluten is cooked on a separate griddle.

Chocolate pudding is gluten and dairy free and was so creamy! *has some spice jn it - not overwhelming though.

Prices were really fair and affordable!! I wish there was one in my hometown or near… GO!

Very cool place. Nice patio. The staff is very aware of gluten protocols and very few of the menu items contain gluten. Those that do are clearly marked. I’ll update this if my daughter has any reactions but I feel pretty safe here. She was really excited to get chorizo.

So good! The few gluten-containing items are marked on the menu; it seemed like they were mostly desserts. I had the chicken verde bowl (like a burrito bowl) - colleagues had other bowls and tacos. Everyone enjoyed their meals, and we returned to our conference with happy bellies.

I’m gluten free but my husband is not. There are only a few things not gluten free on the menu. Everything we had was delicious! I can’t drink, but my husband said the Margarita was the best he’s ever had as they freshly squeeze the juice.

This was an interesting experience, you sit down and order your meal on your phone at a table. There is a drop down option to select up to 5 allergies - including gluten. If you have more allergies, you can ask the manager and they can show you a list of all ingredients in each meal to confirm what items are safe for you. Unlike traditional menus, all items are GF unless noted otherwise - all desserts have gluten and flour tortillas are available upon request. Our meal and drinks were delicious!

Super great ambiance and good food. However the staff is not very knowledge on gluten, I’ve been here several times and gotten very very sick once I think it may be from the fried plantains as I couldn’t get a straight answer (got a different one every time i go) on whether they have a shared frier or not. Also unclear on whether their birria tacos are gluten free as the tortilla seemed like flour and one waiter said it was in fact flour despite being told it wasn’t. Been 4 times without getting sick and twice getting sick, so it’s a bit of a gamble. They need to brush up on allergen procedures and knowledge

This place is amazing! If you are in the area you must visit. The atmosphere is amazing and all of the staff is very well educated on what Celiacs Disease and gluten intolerance is. They were willing to answer my questions and address any concerns. There is very limited opportunity for cross contamination as everything is gluten free except for the kids quesadilla and most of the desserts. They take extra care to mark your meal as gluten free regardless and both managers checked in our table to make sure we knew everything in the kitchen was safe and what precautions they were taking. FOOD IS DELICIOUS!! They have some of the best tacos I’ve ever had and I already want to go back. No symptoms and felt well taken care of.

I don’t have a ton to say for this one but the place is super reliable and great for those who are gluten free and those that aren’t. Chips are gluten free and are served in big circular tortillas which is super fun. The tacos taste amazing and are reasonably priced as well. If you aren’t in the mood for either of those, there are a couple other gluten free options too, but this place is somewhere you come to for the tacos.

I went here with a friend after work on a Wednesday. We arrived around 6pm and the wait was an hour or more, so we circled the bar and got lucky with a couple of stools. I had the sangria, a shrimp taco, and the chips with guacamole. I wrote that I had a gluten allergy (celiac) on the ordering card. I didn't get sick, so that's the biggest win. The guac was tasty, though the "chips" were a little odd--round fried tortillas that hadn't been broken up. Tasty nonetheless. The taco was fine but not memorable. I would come here again, especially for a drink after work with friends. Good atmosphere and I fell fairly confident I wont get sick.
