Casa Alejo

After seeing the other positive reviews, I wanted to check it out. My waiter only gave one-word answers when asked about gluten-free options, at first only pointing to one item on the menu. I asked if there were any other options and was told “no”. After asking “Are you sure?” she pointed to a couple of tacos, specifically the ‘corn tortilla’ part. I asked if a corn tortilla could be substituted for a flour tortilla for a different menu item and was told “no”. I eventually ordered a baked potato. The chips and queso were good, but would’ve loved to try an enchilada or burrito as well.
