Always delicious (way better than chipotle) and most of the menu is GF. They do put my corn tortillas on the same press to heat them but they’ve always put them inside tinfoil to prevent contact. Still a chance for CC though so be aware.

Celiacs should proceed with caution, all reviews say safe for some reason but when I mentioned I was gluten free my tortillas were still put in the same press as the flour even though other reviews mention a separate prep area. Maybe I went on a bad day but the young girl behind the counter could barely understand what I was saying after I mentioned it (language barrier which is no big deal but difficult when communicating dietary needs) so I just gave up and went with a bowl instead, the steak looked nearly gray and had no flavor, I didn’t end up eating it. There’s much better tacos in the Twin Cities for celiacs.

I was so impressed with the food. It was great I was unsure of the restaurant at first but it was worth it. Very safe and free of cross contamination staff was very helpful.

Authentic Mexican Fast-Service Food!

Think Chipotle (but better by 10000%) with fun seating and Dia de Los Muertos decor. The service was friendly, quick, and reasonably priced. I also found the menu easy to understand, and it even outlines what is and isn't gluten-free. There might be the possibility for cross-contact on the tortilla warmer, but I didn't have any allergic reactions after some delicious barbacoa tacos. If you're hesitant, don't worry, they also have rice bowls! The food was so flavorful and reminded me of the food I got living down in New Mexico and Arizona.

Goodbye Chipotle, Hello Catrina's!!

Great food with fresh ingredients. My favorite is the bowl with chicken, black beans, cilantro rice, and their verde salsa and guacamole.

I had lunch here - it's a cute, casual place. Everything is GF with a few noted exceptions. As someone said, there's sort of a Chipotle set-up, but they have other things available too.

My friend got hard tacos, my husband got soft (corn) tacos and I got nachos. All were really good. The layout reminds me of Chipotle or Qdoba. If you want the corn tortillas warm for your soft tacos just let them know you are GF and they will make them in the back (they have a separate press). The guys were nice and as soon as I said I was GF he changed his gloves too.

We eat at Catrina’s once a week, but I would eat there daily if I could. It is so good, and safe for Celiacs.

When I told the sever that I was gluten free, he immediately changed gloves and had the other two servers change theirs.

I had a burrito bowl; I had part of it for dinner and the other part for lunch the next day. Plenty of food.

I very much enjoyed the food I had. It was tasty and plentiful.

There is no dine-in option at this time.

This is one of my go to places both their Roseville and their Oakdale places. It’s like a better version of Chipotle.

GLUTEN FREE!!!!! As someone with celiac, I am always glad to find a place I can eat without worry. Not only are the staff funny and kind, but also willing to go the extra step by warming up my corn tortillas away from the flour ones. Thank you, Catrina's ♥♥♥

Wow! What a great experience. I mentioned I have a gluten allergy and the worker immediately removed his gloves while telling me everything except a few things (tostadas, flour tortillas, and tortas) is gluten free. Yummy. We will definitely be coming back.

I love this place, there are a huge selection of meats, toppings, and salsas that are all gluten free and now they also have queso! This place is like Chipotle on steroids and much better.

We eat here all the time! The owners are amazing and so careful with all our food. Our Celiac family has never had an issue with contamination. They take extra care to make sure our meals are safe. They know us now and I don't even have to remind them, they immediately change gloves and take extra care when we walk in. Highly recommend!!!

EXCELLENT food, really fresh and very easy to navigate. The carnitas and Chicken are really good and a huge vareity of fixins. Think of it like a fresh and local Chipotle with more gluten-free options.

This is the best authentic Mexican food I have ever had!!!

I had the pleasure of meeting Lorenzo, part owner of Catrina's, who I spoke to on the phone earlier regarding gluten free options.

I mentioned that I called in earlier and right away he remembered that I asked about gluten-free options.

He sampled us all of the meats without hesitation and provided us with the best dining experience in a long time. I would highly recommend Catrina's to anyone. The staff, food, and atmosphere are all great and I thought a great value as well. Enjoy!! :)

Authentic, fresh, made-in-house Mexican food fast casual. As of right now there are only 3 items on the menu that contain gluten - flour tortillas, torta and tostada. Corn tortillas and tortilla chips are excellent options, but all their veggies are so fresh. Delicious barbacoa!
