Amazing tacos. Very knowledgeable about celiac and cross contamination. They had GF tortilla chips and were willing to bring guacamole for dipping on smaller ramekin for our celiac daughter so we could keep separate. The tacos were amazing too.

Just a PSA.. no one under 21 is allowed. We came here with older children and wouldn’t even let us walk in the door.

I had a fantastic experience at Black Sheep. Tacos are often a safe bet for me because of corn tortillas. It was very easy to navigate the menu and the fillings and the server was fairly knowledgeable about gluten risks. I didn’t get sick afterwards, which was pretty exciting!

Staff was very knowledgeable about GF options and cross contamination. Many GF options including special chips with the salsas. Food was excellent! Had GF rockfish and carnitas tacos. I have celiacs and had no issues eating here.

Very knowledgeable about celiac and required protocols. Have eaten here a couple times and have always felt safe. Their house made chips aren’t celiac safe but they’ve always got celiac safe chips on the side should you require them.

Very knowledgeable about what is gluten free vs celiac safe. Regular chips are celiac safe, but they usually have separate gf prepackaged corn chips for orders (they were out when I was there). Tacos are prepared separately from the rest of the food too.

One of my favorite places to eat gluten free. I feel pretty safe. Their tortillas used to be flour/corn but recently switched to all corn. Food is excellent! Wait staff is very responsive and helpful if you mentioned you are celiac. Be wary of the queso dip as they use a gf beer that is not celiac safe. I did let them know but I'm not sure if they switched beer choices.

I was able to order amazing tacos, with beans and chips! The staff was super knowledgeable and was able to let me know that they have a dedicated workspace for preparing celiac tacos. Their tortillas are handmade and even though they do not have a dedicated frier for chips, they have Juanitas chips on hand to be extra careful!

They make homemade corn tortilla shells. They do have flour/corn tortilla but you just ask for the gluten free option. They marked it as celiac and assured me they take preparation precautions. Great service and wonderful cocktail menu. A lot of dairy free options, and there is vegan options as well
