They were very accommodating. They brought out gluten-free chips for the whole table.

Waitress never had anyone ask for gluten and dairy free items on the menu. But got answers To all my questions. They will make baked corn chips gluten free. Not very tasty. Fajita was made gluten free and the chicken was tender.

They now have a clear gluten free Menu - I have eaten here and not got glutened on either of the two occasions I ate here. I had enchiladas, Hard Corn Tacos and Tamales - which I hadn’t risked in years. I would advise being vigilant though, as on one occasion my plate came with a side that according to the menu had gluten in - so I sent it back. They worked hard to include me in all choices and prepared Fresh complimentary GF tortilla chips and salsa - see photos. Also had the GF Flan for a 🍮 dessert 🎉

They do not have a gf menu but when i asked the host he told us to tell the waiter. Then a couple of minutes after we sat (before the waiter came), the manager came over and went over the options (most of their meats are marinated in soy sauce, but they would cook just abt any meat,un-marinated, with salt and pepper). And then baked tortillas came! We forgot to ask abt enchiladas and while the waiter didn't know, he went back and asked (they could modify them). Overall, everyone was extremely helpful and pleasant. And the flan is gf!!

Being gluten-free and dairy-free, it's hard for me to find a good spot. The manager came over and told me they would bake corn tortillas so there would be no cross-contamination, and he was kind enough to recommend several dishes. I got the fish tacos without the chipotle sauce (had dairy), with a side of black beans and mango salsa. It was to die for! So good and fresh. The salsa was amazing, as well.

The server was knowledgeable about fryer cross-contamination. They will actually change their fryer oil to make you fresh chips if you want, and if you don't want to wait you can call ahead to request it.

Quality-wise, it's a Chevy's. It's not gourmet cuisine.

I was very impressed with Chevy’s staff and the way they handled Celiac Disease. Seeing that there hadn’t been a review on this platform in several years, I was nervous to try and eat here. That said, I called ahead, notified them that I had Celiac, and asked what kind of precautions they took. They assured me that they’d do their very best to avoid cross-contamination, and seemed to have a good understanding of the serious nature of CD. They even went so far as to change the oil they used for their chips and salsa just for me so that my corn chips could be totally gluten free & celiac safe without any cross-contamination. They also had a fairly extensive GF menu, and the kitchen staff was notified about Celiac, and took proper precautions. So far I have not had any adverse reaction. Great experience!

They told me that they could make nachos gluten free over 30 minutes later informed me that they could not make anything celiac safe, additionally my friends dairy free was totally wrong, waitress attempted to be friendly though.

Super disappointed with Chevys. The host and manager said they had an allergy menu and would bring it to me. It never arrived. I asked 4 times in total for it. I even tried looking for it on Chevys website and couldn’t find it so it probably didn’t exist. The server was rude and dismissive when I asked about gluten safe items. My salad was brought out incorrectly and I’m hoping they actually remade it so I don’t get sick. I won’t be going back.

Be careful! The server wasn’t aware that Chevy’s offers a GF menu. He had to ask the manager who took a bit to find the menu. I ordered the grill fish tacos and they were served with flour tortillas. The kitchen crew didn’t know what gluten free meant.
