The food was absolutely delicious! I did not get sick but did not have a lot of confidence in the handling of my food. I don’t get sick from trace contact.
Very good. Menu was well marked and the staff was great about preparing.

Decent tacos. Fast service but cross contaminate can happen
Everyone loved the food, except the gluten free kid, but to be honest, she was just in a bad mood. lol
Celiac and had no reaction. Ordered fish tacos, chips and Guac, rice and beans. All was good just not the most flavorful. But good quality.
Almost everything is gf. So delicious. Ok have gone twice at 2 different locations. They are way better than Chipotle. Items aren’t marked. I looked it up on line and they were helpful as well.
Very obvious cross contamination. I am extremely surprised by the current rating. Corn tortillas are dipped in shared oil and placed on same grille. Attempted to explain and staff did not understand. Not safe for celiac; ok for lifestyle people but not for true gluten sensitive folks
Stopped here while between tourist sites because of good reviews on here. It was a crazy busy lunch time but guy taking our order made sure to go back and mark our ticket for cc protocols. However, as person after person got their food and we didn’t, it was clear our order got bumped bc of the volume and the need to change gloves and clean- we finally had to ask and they had to go find our order to start making it. Food was good, safe, but going at a busy time was a problem.
This place is literally so delicious. And online ordering gives an option for “gluten free”! Highly suggest
I've only had tacos. The gf tacos use corn tortillas heated on a isolated grill top. There seems to be a chance of cross contamination as the filling is added to the tortilla but in my 10+ visits, I have not been glutened yet. It is good enough and they take enough care (at non peak hours) that I feel safe eating there
Everything except the Flour tortilla is Gluten free. The chips were good, pretty good sized portions.
Highly recommend! Staff friendly and patient while I decided. It was super easy to order a to-go order and quick! Tried 4 different combinations of corn tortilla tacos and they did not disappoint!! Great way to end our day in DC.
You can have the corn tacos or Burrito bowl without any problems and they can put gf on the order so that cross-contamination is minimized.
Had a great meal and didn’t get sick. I was a little skeptical when the girl I ordered from didn’t know what meat was gluten free. She asked the other cashier who suggested she go and ask a cook. She came back and told me all the meat was GF. I had the burrito bowl with Barbacoa shredded beef and it was great!
Food was really good. We did not have any issues with getting sick.
Excellent place for some yummy Mexican food. I ordered the burrito bowl (but they did offer corn tortillas). The food was fresh and delicious. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I did not get sick and will be back.
Fresh ingredients, pollo and Carne asada were good but the queso not so much.
Was in DC 3 days sightseeing. I have celiac and so does my son. We ate here four different times and loved it. My son liked the tacos but couldn't stop getting the gf queso. For gf orders they have a dedicated person change gloves, wrap fresh corn tortillas in aluminum and prepare the order. Tortilla chips are gf.
I watched them cook my vegetables right on the same spot they had been warming wheat tortillas.
I had high expectations for this place after reading some reviews. I go to all the popular Mexican restaurants so I find it easy to give my opinion here.
Overall the food was decent, no brilliant flavors or spices mostly salt and pepper. The rice is completely unseasoned white rice, no cilantro or lime. The steak was very plain too, however it was tender. I would give their food 2 stars because it was so bland, but adding 1 star because it did taste fresh and they did accommodate gluten intolerant customers.
Their chips and queso are gluten free, and to make all the dishes better I put queso on them.
Be careful because some of their salsas have wheat, you should ask which ones.
I would rate them below all the major Mexican chains even California Tortilla and Moe's...
We thought the tacos were very good, especially the fish tacos. I didn't have any symptoms after eating there. The order got confused several times, but they did their best to get it worked out.
Unfortunately both times I've been here, I've gotten sick. Make sure if you get tacos that you specify that you want gluten free, not just corn tortillas. They handle them differently. I'm not sure if I picked up cross contamination from the chips or what. However, well priced, and while the food isn't spectacular, it's good with a bit of salt, pepper and lime.
Due to being GFCF I eat a lot of Mexican food but even though it was quick and inexpensive, I wouldn't call it fast food. It was freshly prepared, the salsas tasted home made and it was delicious!! What a wonderful treat. I wish we had these in New Jersey!!
Less than $5 for lunch from District Taco - corn tortillas with pinto beans, rice, guac, and mixed veggies. Tell them you're gluten free at the register and they'll make your meal special to avoid cross contamination!

Food was good. I had fish tacos. They were good. People not overly friendly or personal. Didn't get sick.
Ordered the build your own salad w grilled chicken/pollo asado and it was delicious!
I’ve ordered both takeout and eating at the location. Online orders have option for gluten free. They’ll change gloves and keep one person on your order if requested.
I always eat here and never have an issue but the other week definitely got sick from it
I get takeout from here regularly. The salad and bowls can be made gluten free. You can also get tacos on corn tortillas.
You can specify an allergy when ordering online. The chiltomate salsa is amazing.
