Cantina Laredo

The staff is knowledgeable and although limited, items are clearly marked. Cross contaminated fryer so beware of that. Always kind service though.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

CELIACS BEWARE! I ate breakfast here. I specifically told the waitress 1. I have celiac (and what that means). 2. I cannot have things with flour in them as she asked to sub tortillas with corn tortillas 3. I said corn only is fine but i CANNOT have it if it is in the shared fryer. I said this last part 3 separate times before placing my order.

Meal comes out, she says gluten free and they gave you the corn tortilla instead of flour. I said great.

Half way through I had a gut feeling. Asked her if she was sure this wasnt fried same fryer; she stared blankly. Had her go check. Manager comes out and sure enough it was fried in the same freaking fryer!!!! Started crying bc i have flights to get on and i cant afford the inflammation and damage that will be caused.

No

I bought lunch at the to go counter. The Cashier was knowledgeable. The food was good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’m a very sensitive celiac. Staff was knowledgeable. They do not have a dedicated fryer so avoid fried things fried things including tortilla chips. Food was tasty and safe.

Very knowledgeable waiter! He warned me of everything to stay away from. Great warm and tasty dinner and a Margarita when my Southwest flight was delayed!! Highly recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good choices for airport food. GF options are clearly marked and the server understood that the chips being fried in a shared friar was a problem. The fish tacos were yummy.

It is nice to go to a Mexican restaurant that has a menu labeled with gluten free items. I love that the chips are fried in a designated fryer (my waitress double checked with the chefs). I had the chicken fajitas (*note: the steak is not marked GF) which was a more fancy take on classic fajitas. Very good! You could swap the flour tortillas for corn tortillas, but I opted out. The Mexican rice was also tasty. Very pleased with my meal and enjoyed the neat, modern atmosphere.

I spoke with the waiter, who got the manager for me...he was extremely helpful and assured he would supervise the meal prep to "avoid any cross contamination" (his words). I can't wait to go back! I had the chicken fajitas, queso, chips, beans and rice all GF!

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.
