Chapala Mexican Grill

There were fruit flies everywhere, staff was not knowledgeable and the margaritas were disgusting. We will never go back.

How confident are you that this establishment takes safety precautions against cross-contact?

— Not at all

Is there a gluten-free menu?

— No gluten-free information on the menu

How much of the menu is available gluten-free?

— Some

How would you rate the taste and quality of the gluten-free food you tried?

— Poor

They use a common fryer and cross contamination is likely in the kitchen. Only a few options maybe gluten free. A bad choice for anyone needing GF

Celiac friendly?

No

When you come here make sure you speak with someone who knows and understands English. I ended up getting a flour tortilla after asking about gluten free items since nothing is marked in the menu and they don't have a separate menu. Lucky I asked before I ate it but I ended up eating the rice that was next to it so hopefully it is ok enough to not hurt me especially since I'm pregnant right now. In regards to the chips they bring to the table.. they are corn and fried first thing in the morning in fresh oil but in the common fryer. I'm not sure if they are celiac friendly yet but the guy who helped me spoke English brought me a new plate and said he would bring me a new fork so maybe he gets it?

Best place we have found for my celiac husband. The waiting staff is very knowledgeable about celiac and not contaminating food. They make their own chips that a person with celiac can eat.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
