I’ve been in Nashville for the weekend and I have eaten here twice because it was so good the first time. Everyone that I talked to was knowledgeable about celiac. 90% of the menu is gluten free, just not necessarily advertised. The hostess was super friendly and told me that they had a dedicated fryer and that most of the menu was gluten free. She noted that I was celiac and had the waiter explain the menu to me. Surprisingly the waiter had celiac as well. He said it was the reason he worked there. He assured me I would not get sick if I avoided the few gluten items. I had no reaction either time. Food was very good both times.

Can’t go wrong here! A lot of their food can easily be made gluten free, if it’s not already naturally gf. We had the carnitas tacos with rice and street corn and it was to die for! Their bowls are also amazing which we ordered during another visit here! Chips made in dedicated fryer with corn only. We loved it here! The strawberry mandarin margarita was also a nice addition!

Our server was super helpful and knowledgeable about celiac and GF options. I had the yummy street corn starter off the cob and it was easily shareable! Also got the vegetarian enchilada as a bowl with black beans very delicious. Instead of bread they give you chips which are done in a dedicated fryer so they’re safe with house made salsa. We loved them!

This place has great food, drinks and atmosphere, overall a fun place to experience! We found it because of the FMGF app and we were not disappointed!!! Our food looked awesome when it arrived as well as dishes delivered to nearby tables. There were many menu choices for GF as well! My husband is not celiac but I am and very sensitive. Our server, Nicholas, was extremely knowledgeable and made helpful suggestions. This establishment definitely "gets it" on avoiding CC! I felt very at ease and had absolutely no issues. The night we were there was a Thursday but pretty busy even for 5 pm! There was plenty of servers and our food arrived without waiting very long!

The chips are safe for celiacs & fired in their own fryer, and everyone from the waitress, the hostess and the manager were so knowledgeable and informative. Basically everything is gluten free aside from burritos and chimichangas (anything that needs a larger tortilla than a corn one!). The short rib burrito bowl was to die for.

Fantastic GF experience right on Broadway. My waiter had celiac too and was able to explain everything in detail. Almost everything they have is GF, and the one exception (can't remember what it was) is stored and prepared separately from all the other food. Dedicated fryer as well. Food was delicious!

Super busy area of Broadway, so get a reservation! My server, Nicholas, was knowledgeable about accommodations (heard the table next to ours discussing shellfish with him) and proactive in helping out. Many items are gf or can be, and there's a dedicated fryer for corn items so they don't have cross-contact with flour tortillas. I got the street corn as a side instead of beans and it was delicious. It was birthday and they brought me a nice flan, too!

Decided to eat here due to the positive reviews. The servers reassured me that most of the menu is already gluten free, and can minimise the risk of cross contamination. I ate the chicken tacos and was delicious, the manager brought my meal out separately too! Very stress free, and wasn’t ill! Definitely recommend for symptomatic coeliacs visiting Nashville.

I think this was the best Mexican food I’ve ever had! Almost the entire menu can be made gluten free. The only thing you cant have is the chimichangas. The server talked me through my options. They brought out amazing fresh tortilla chips and salsa. We also got the warm queso as an appetizer, it was really good. For my meal I got the poblano shrimp enchilada which came with rice and black beans. Chef brought out my dish separate. Beyond amazing! Even the rice was out of this world! Felt super safe and would definitely go back again! Staff were very patient and knowledgeable! Definitely celiac friendly.

Went to dinner here last night and it was great to have so many choices-only 3 things on menu were not gluten free. I have celiac and did not have any reactions. I loved being able to have chips and queso! The Carne Asada tacos were delicious, I did a soft corn tortilla but you could also choose a hard corn shell. The waitress was very knowledgeable about gluten free/cross contamination.
