Costa Vida

The lady who took my order immediately took her gloves off, washed her hands for a long time, and put on a fresh pair of gloves when I told her I was celiac. They grilled my tacos on a fresh piece of tin foil on the grill. They also bagged my stuff separately from everyone else's. No huffing or signing or eye rolling! She was very happy to do it! The best service I have received in awhile!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I loved this place but I saw a girl dump rice that she just had on a flour tortilla back into the thing of rice.

Celiac friendly?

No

This may be my favorite place to go for gf food. As soon as I say "gluten free" they take off their gloves and put on a new pair. They even put tinfoil down to cook my food on so no cross contamination happens. I always get a taco.

Although most of the food is gluten free they are not good about cross contamination. I have watched them contaminate the GF corn tortillas on numerous occasions, and at numerous locations. I no longer eat there. Food is great, but not safe.

Celiac friendly?

No

get the caramel flan. so good. also love their nachos more than everything else. salads aren't bad and the enchiladas are tasty.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They are very careful and make sure everyone knows your meal is Gf. I love all the options and I go almost once a week! One day I went in and asked for an enchilada but they were out of corn tortillas. So then I asked for soup instead and they were also out. It was kind of annoying for a minute but then they made me a salad and didn't charge me!! I was pretty happy about that :)

I talked with the workers and they asked the manager but that didn’t help because I still got cross contaminated. I ordered a salad with some of their sides, black beans, chicken, and salsa. They have too much gluten in the store or too much flour must be everywhere or they season with gluten products or something. Anyway, stay away if you are sensitive!

A lot of choices for gluten free food. I told them I was gluten free and the manager washed his hands and changed gloves. I had a salad and they put corn tortillas at the bottom instead of flour. I was able to put a lot in my dish and was very happy.

Food is great and the staff is well trained in gluten free. Every time I've told them I'm gluten free they have changed gloves before doing my order and I've never had any issues.

Everything is gluten-free except for the flour tortillas. And they substitute those with corn tortillas and use a separate grill to warm them up. The food is excellent! My favorite was the shrimp tacos.

All I had to do was say that I couldn’t have gluten cross contamination and the staff immediately changed their gloves and washed their hands. Without me needing to ask, they grabbed some food from the back for me that hadn’t been touched yet. The staff was very well educated and super nice about it all! Everything except for the tortillas and a few desserts are gf.
