I got the pork fajitas and they were great. About a third of the menu is gluten free.

The server knew what was in the food, but who knows.....

The gluten free options were alright! I had soft tacos and they’re tacos with cheese and I can’t have cheese. The server was able to tell me offhand what was gluten free, but there is potential for cross contamination.

Nice patio and area.

I have Celiac. My husband does not. He had the Adobo Pork Quesedilla and I had the Adobo Pork entire. So tasty and very freshly made! A lot of gluten free options on the menu. I’ll know in the morning if there was ny cross contamination, but this far all is good. Highly recommend!

GF is marked on the menu, and was pretty much everything that doesn’t have a tortilla or bun. I’d you’re Celiac it’s a little more limited; she pointed me to the fish and oven baked pork as the safest. I got the pork plate and it was delicious. I avoided the chips because she said other things go in the fryer.

Gf marked on the menu. I didn’t feel like the waiter knew what gluten free was though.

I didn’t have any type of reaction. I also didn’t eat the tortillas that came with my meal. They were corn but I just didn’t wanna risk any Cross contamination. Probably over cautious. Food was delicious. Would go back.

Delicious food! GF items are clearly marked so there’s no guessing. The chicken fajita was delicious! It came with corn tortillas which I don’t normally like the taste of anyway, but it didn’t need them anyway. You can tell everything is super fresh and homemade.

Delicious Yucatán style food. About half the items on the menu are gluten free. It's in a super cute old house, and the food tastes like it was homemade by your abuela. Try the house made habanero salsa. I had no reaction to the food.

Great, authentic Mexican/Mayan food. Many of the entrees are marked GF. The fryer is not dedicated (tortilla chips). The cochinita pibil (slow roasted pork) is to die for.
