Chivo Taqueria

I got sick here. I ordered chicken tacos and they said all the meat is cross contaminated, so I had veggie tacos, chips, and salsa after our server assured me those items are gluten free. Started feeling bad immediately after. Seems like they’re not very careful.

My friend and I went here, sat at the bar , and after Chatting to the bartender, we walked out. The bartender was VERY nice and she assured us that everything prepared gluten-free in their kitchen would very likely be cross contaminated, despite being told otherwise, by the very young servers and front of house people… She said that her sister is celiac, and that’s how she knows. Appreciated her forthcomingness and kindness very much, as I’m sensitive, so if you’re celiac, avoid this place.

While GF options are not marked on the menu, it’s pretty easy to figure out what is and isn’t GF. A quick check with the waitress: the fried options and the korean bbq sauce are non-friendly. They serve corn tortillas for all their tacos, so no issues there. It’s all so delicious and pretty GF friendly without any substitutions required.
