District Taco

Before ordering I told them I had celiac disease and asked if they knew what it was. The woman behind the counter looked at me like I had 8 eyeballs. I then said I have a gluten allergy and I would need the staff to change their gloves. She still looked at me like I was a freak, but she called out to the staff “gluten free.” (Ok, close enough.) They did change their gloves. Corn tortillas go on a griddle that is separate from the flour tortillas. The chance for cross contamination is definitely via the ladles they use for ingredients, since they touch the tortillas. I didn’t feel super sick after but I did feel a little off the day after eating here. Your experience may just depend on who’s on staff and which location you go to.

I got three take-out tacos in early October 2019. The options offered were thoughtful; the food was well-made and generous for the price. This place is a good bargain.

Even better, the clerk at the register was happy to answer my questions. There were many, many GF options, and the clerk volunteered that, once he put "gluten free" on my ticket, the kitchen staff would change gloves and take allergen precautions.

The tacos (al pastor, pollo asado & guacamole) were delicious, and I was able to have a worry-free meal. This is a good place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have gluten free food but are very confused when it comes to cross contamination and are not very happy when asked to avoid it

Staff immediately knew how to approach a gf meal when we mentioned celiac disease. The first quesadilla and nachos my daughter has had in a while and she loved it!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious food, all gluten free but the flour tortillas. They will mark your order Gluten Free and have gluten free chips!

Decent tacos. Fast service but cross contaminate can happen

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.

I could taste the quality of the ingredients. You can mark gluten-free when ordering from Grub Hub. Felt great after eating it both times and will definitely be coming back.

I asked for a GF menu, but they do not have one. The woman informed me she could make a selection to indicate gluten free when I ordered. However, she then asked if I wanted a flour tortilla 😅. They have kiosks you can place your order at as well - which might be better. The food was good. Not something I’d go out of my way for, but if I needed something quick and convenient, it’s great.
