We had an amazing dinner. The owner is celiac and really helped the member of our party who was recently diagnosed. She asked if we had told the server about the celiac, and when he said, “No,” she made sure to tell the kitchen staff. She also gave a ton of tips for moving forward with celiac.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their dinner. I had fajitas with corn tortillas.

The only thing the fryer is used for is the chips. The menu changes often, so just go and enjoy. It all not disappoint.

Don’t even look at the menu, just go. The menu is more complex than what is online and changes. Go earlier for specials. Very safe. Owner is celiac. Don’t hesitate. Sooo good

This place is amazing! Staff is very knowledgeable about celiac disease (one of the owners has celiac disease). The food is delicious. I had the chicken fajitas and cranberry cheesecake. Did not have any problems!! Would definitely eat here again. I have celiac disease and felt very safe eating here.

Absolutely incredible experience! We were unaware we should have made a reservation but they squeezed us in and were so kind. One of the owners had celiac so I could pick from almost anything and they made me feel so safe! I would love to come again and anyone who has gluten restrictions of any kind will love it! I can not say enough good things.

If you are gluten free or celiac you HAVE to come here! The owners wife has celiac and she is also a hostess there. Of course she is extremely knowledgeable on what you can or cannot have. We went on taco Tuesday but are wishing we just got two orders of nachos with chicken, one for each! Omg it was so good 🥰😍 do yourself a favor and please come here. You will feel so safe and be so full.

By far one of the best meals I have eaten. I LOVE Puerto Rican food!! The meats were tender and flavored very well. Service was amazing. Cheese cake was a delight. Chocolate raspberry was our favorite. My son really enjoyed the hot sauces. The owners are very personable. She has celiac’s so they absolutely get it. Oh the salsas were fabulous too.

Not only is the food incredible, but so is the staff! We had dinner here our first night in Vieques and will be returning regularly. They are extremely knowledgeable of all allergies and specifically celiac, as members of staff have celiac and other allergies.

Blackened shrimp is incredible, great atmosphere, and phenomenal service!

This place is amazing and the safest place to eat in all of Puerto Rico. Owner has Celiac and her husband runs the kitchen. Most of what the have is gluten free, very aware of cross contamination. I spent 6 months in Puerto Rico and this was by far the safest restaurant and best place to eat. Friday night is date night and they have a new menu each time. Always something you can eat. If you would like to make sure you can eat dessert, call a day or two ahead and they will prepare their speciality cheesecake without a crust. They were wonderful people and a great friendly staff. We were here 3 times in 2 days. I highly recommend this place.
