This place was disgusting food!! The waiter barely spoke English and so I had to ask for the manager. The manager told us he would come back to take our order because I am so allergic but he never showed his face again. The chefs and waiters think that butter and lemon have gluten in it. Both my fish and my daughters were plain and tasted like crap to be frank. We did not get cross contaminated but for the price of the food, I expect more than microwaved fish placed over a bed of rice with a couple of rubbery shrimp. I would not recommend this place at all unless your desperate.

They have everything labeled GS (gluten sensitive) and it is very clear. I got the baja ceviche (it’s an appetizer) as my meal and it was delicious! The staff also was absolutely amazing!

They don’t have a gf menu, it’s gluten sensitive. However, speak with manager when ordering and she will help. I have shrimp and crab in a dish, didn’t want gf bun. Also fries are gf. I am celiac and no problem and food was delicious.

Our server wasn't sure about GF items but stated that they are not a GF environment and the menu items are 'gluten sensitive' rather than gluten free. I decided to take the risk as I'd seen positive reviews. After ordering the manager came over to assure me they would take precautions as my order was flagged as gluten allergy. I had jenny's surf and turf (grilled salmon and shrimp with steamed rice and broccoli) thinking this was the safest option. It was delicious but unfortunately I was unwell afterwards so there must have been cross contamination somewhere. Maybe I was just unlucky but I wouldn't recommend for celiac. A shame because the food was really yummy.
