Nima tested the chicken bowl and said it was gluten free! I always just let them know it’s celiac just to be extra safe, but this is a great place with great food! Feel very safe eating here! :)

Most items are GF. Manager was very knowledgeable. The tacos were delicious. The baja fried fish had a crunchy rice-based batter that was a perfect batter to fish ratio. Highly recommend for fresh and fun, interactive dining experience.

Most of the menu can be made gluten free, although there are less options if you are vegetarian. If you eat meat, this place is very safe and super accommodating. The food is amazing!

Being a celiac of 17 years, I bought a Nima gluten tester device as soon as it came out. I tested both the mushroom and shrimp tacos separately and both were 100% gluten free! Talked to the general manager and they have a separate gf prep space and it shows.

Food was delicious!!! Chips and fish tacos are safe to eat. We ate there twice and I never got sick. The staff was knowledgeable and didn't seem phased by my many questions about their food prep. Can not recommend highly enough.

What a great find! The menu is 90% of the menu is GF! If you like it spicey, you'll enjoy this place. The staff was very knowledgeable. A great experience. Had the chef's selection tray of tacos, guacamole, tamales and sides. Delish. The spiced chocolate pudding with hazelnut topping was so good!

Two thumbs up for this gem. Most everything on the menu is GF. Most items are single servings (order 1 taco for 2.50) great for people who want to try a bit of everything on the menu. Their mojitos are great too!

The majority of the menu is gluten free, and everything that isn't is clearly marked. It can get pretty busy during the evening, but all the food is quite good. Eaten here and at the West Hartford location several times without issue.

The food here is SOOO GOOD. As others have said almost the entire menu is celiac safe gluten free!!! They are able to also accommodate dairy and soy allergies. It’s always very loud in there though with the music so I’ll sometimes opt for takeout, that’s my only complaint.

My 4 year old daughter is the family member who has Celiac and she has never had an issue eating here. The food is really good. It’s easy to accommodate a child with Celiac. She gets a chicken taco with cheese, watermelon skewer, and salsa/guacamole trio. We dine her regularly and they are very aware of gluten allergies (among others). I would highly suggest this restaurant and recommend putting your party on the waitlist!

I had SUCH an amazing time here with my friend. I tried practically all of the tacos, split a pitcher of sangria with her, had the coconut gelato for dessert which was absolutely delicious. I am looking forward to going back. :)

Not safe for celiacs! I ate here all the time until I started getting very sick! Not sure if their protocol has changed but I do not recommend if you are very sensitive to gluten.

I eat here on a regular basis. Most of the menu is gluten free, I believe it’s just the desserts and flour tortillas which aren’t. My favorite taco is the Baja fish it’s delicious! However I’ve eaten all the fish/veggie ones and they are all good!
