Update: after eating here a second time my son was almost definitely glutened. I can no longer recommend.

We had a good experience here. They have two cook tops - one for meat and one for both corn and flour tortillas. After discussing the cross contamination issues, they cooked our carne asada quesadillas in corn tortillas (homemade - super yummy!) on the meat one. we also had a side of elotes and salad with no chips on top (they said those contained gluten). Very delicious, and no reactions in either me or my son.

Food was very good. Girl at the front taking orders said ahe had no idea what was Gluten free or not. She went and asked and I was comfortable with the answer but there is no Gluten free menu. Celiacs beware.

Nima tested and approved for the Carne Asada Quesadilla (corn) and side of rice and beans! Delicious! Tortilla chips and tostadas are fried and not gluten free. Knowledgeable staff!

This place is amazing! The carne asada and pescado tacos are excellent. This place is tied for my favorite Mexican food. Chips and guac are amazing as well, the tamales are TO DIE FOR, if you haven't been here yet you NEED to go!! They are always meticulous about answering my questions and they are sure to prepare my food separately. I eat here all the time.

Lots of choices for gluten & dairy free. Restaurant is sensitive to allergies. I second the previous review about recommending the carne asada. Would definitely go here again.
