Stopped in for lunch and had a very good meal. Our server Gustavo prepared the guacamole table side and it was delish. Proteins are limited for gf but the mahi and the chicken are safe. Cocktails were yummy too.
Things were labeled GF on menu. It was busy, but we had great service. They were patient with us asking questions and requesting certain food preparation precautions. My daughter was so happy to have GF chips that were in a dedicated fryer. She ordered the chicken fajitas with corn tortillas.
The food here is INCREDIBLE! The gluten free selection is a little small but it is still so delicious. The chips are celiac safe and the salsa and queso are amazing!

I found this restaurant through this app. I was surprised to see that they only had a few items marked as gluten-free on the menu (I expected most of them would be). Things I would have thought were gluten free (like dishes made with beef and corn tortillas) were not gluten-free because of the seasonings. Our server made things a lot better for me because she made suggestions and offered to check with the chef if anything I wanted could be prepared gluten-free. Also, when unsure about whether a dessert was gluten-free, she went to talk to the chef and he took the time to look up the recipe and even came out to go over it with me. Our server understood celiac because she had a friend who was celiac. The food was really good and it really felt like they took celiac seriously.
Chips were in a dedicated fryer. Salsa was amazing! But there wasn’t any meat on the menu that could be made gf besides chicken & fish. I had the mahi mahi tacos. No reaction & it was Really good. But if you don’t like chicken/fish, I wouldn’t recommend.
I ate the best chicken fajitas I’ve ever had! Our waitress was awesome. I don’t remember her name but she was from Equador. She made sure everything I ordered was gf! Would definitely eat there again!
Ate here on 7/21/23 and I checked with the waitress and she assured me the chips were fried in a separate fryer. I had them with the queso and had no reaction! I also ordered a kid’s cheese enchilada (lol) and again no reaction! I would always recommend double checking about the chips though every time.
Always ask for the manager (Tripp is best). Very knowlegable.knowledgeable. He will use a separate pan in a safe part of the kitchen. Very accomodating.
There were only a handful of items on the menu that could be made gluten free, no dedicated menu. Unfortunately most of them contained fish which I’m also allergic to so I had 2 choices. I selected a GF chicken breast with a sauce and black beans. I was sick within an hour. Wouldn’t recommend for celiac.
Only could eat like 6 things... not very knowledgeable about gluten free at all. Don’t come if your have celiac
Gf noted on Reg menu. Server was knowledgeable. Chips aren’t gluten free (fried in shared fryer) but there were several options for lunch. I had fish tacos with corn tortillas and they were excellent.
They have several items on their regular menu that can be made gluten free. Ranging from salads to tacos to fajitas. No gluten free desserts.
Not many GF options. I liked 1 of the 2 I've tried.
Great food! Brisket tacos were amazing and the chef came out personally to go over the gluten free options. Warning *chips are gluten free but fried with other non gluten free items*
Very little to choose from. My family stopped here and left because the kids didn't want either of the two gluten free entrees. There were also three salad options. That's it.

Staff is knowledgeable about GF menu options. Chips are prepared in a dedicated GF fryer. Food is absolutely amazing!
5 stars! I was so nervous to eat here but they were very knowledgeable, the waiter asked if I had celiacs when I inquired about gluten free menus. I had the chips, salsa, queso, guac and the fish tacos with double rice. The rice was different than my husbands, it was white rice/ green and the corn tortillas made me suspicious bc they looked like flour, but our waiter Johnny took my plate back to the kitchen to double check and he was write, they were the corn tortillas. I did not get sick! Really nice meal, I would come back again.
My food was great!! Server was very helpful and knowledgeable about gluten. Chips are made in a separate fryer.
I eat GF and DF. Menu notated GF and Vegan items. I ordered the guacamole without the queso fresco and the salmon lunch entree. I specified my dietary needs and requested nothing was cooked in butter. Food was delicious.
i got the queso and chicken fajitas. the chips and salsa were yummy but the rest of the food wasn’t super yummy. there were only 5 or so gluten free options. it was too much money for mediocre food.
