Chuy’s is a go to for me in Texas and this was my first time trying it here. I know from previous experience. The chicken fajita meat NOT marinated is gluten-free. Usually I get the chicken enchiladas with deluxe tomatillo sauce but opted for the Mexi Cobb salad and some corn tortillas instead. I also brought my own chips and just asked for a basket and paper and a separate side of creamy jalapeño. Other times when I have forgotten the creamy jalapeño I have just asked for an order of corn tortillas to dip instead. if you’ve never been before you must get the creamy jalapeño it’s amazing. The manager personally walked back and cooked my chicken breast to ensure there was no cross contamination.

My husband and I had a great date at Chuy's. They were celiac-friendly and the server double-checked to make sure that the ingredients in my dish were gluten-free. She also let me know that the chefs did not change their gloves between prepping GF dishes so there could be cross-contamination. I usually have a negative response within 5-10 minutes of consuming gluten and I did not have a bad reaction at all after eating this meal. I'll definitely visit Chuy's again!
I was nervous to eat here because I’d seen the reviews that they aren’t gluten friendly, but I was invited to go for a friend’s bday dinner and decided to try it. I called ahead of time and they were able to give me a list of things that were safe: the rice, beans, and any enchilada dish that doesn’t have marinated meat.
When I arrived, I let our waiter know about my allergy and my concerns, and he was extremely helpful and willing to double check with the chefs. I ordered chicken enchiladas and had no reaction. Overall I was pleasantly surprised by the positive experience.
Queso is not gluten free! Every time I have gone and had enchiladas, I have had problems. Way too risky to return to.
Fryers are not celiac safe. The staff was very helpful and the manager came out to speak to me about the fryers. Lots on the menu (chicken dishes) can be made GF no issue. The jalapeño dip is GF and bring your own chips or ask for a side!
I haven't been here in years due to lack of gf/DF items. So glad to have come back! Manager came to table and developed a gf/DF enchiladas plate( no cheese). Not cross contaminated very delicious. Did come at 3 pm during the week. Would come during off peak hours.
