The waiter, Peter was fantastic . He let me know that they did not have a designated fryer so I stayed away from the chips. I had the surf and turf tacos. They were so good and I had no reactions.

Very Celiac friendly. Waiter brought over a paper that went over things on the menu recommended and not recommended for those seeking GF. Ordered the iron skillet with corn tortillas. Very delicious. Would return again.

They can make any of the tacos and enchilladas gluten free (corn tortillas) and they are delicious. I eat here every time I come to PB.

I have the final verdict on this: the corn tortilla chips are fried in the same oil as the Chile rellenos, which have flour in them, so they are not celiac friendly. They have a separate gluten free menu, however, and my server was knowledgeable and alerted the chef as well. The other restaurant staff (hostess, bartender) were not as knowledgeable. The gluten free menu includes lunch and dinner in one, and not all the dinner items are available for lunch (like seafood), so I would suggest going here for dinner, since you’ll have more options.

I was just told the chips are not in a dedicated fryer so I’m not ordering them to be safe. Conflicting reviews on here. The grilled fish tacos were good!

They are aware about celiac and have a separate fryer for chips. The food is nothing spectacular but I haven’t gotten sick there.

There is a separate GF menu. The server was very helpful and the food was very good.

Contrary to other comments here, we were warned off the chips because of a shared fryer but the rice was included, even though it was a GF order. We did not think to ask but it may be GF, after all.

There is a GF menu and the waiter was helpful by asking the kitchen about modifications I needed (no onion or garlic). The rice is not GF. Chips appeared homemade and I was assured they are GF. Grilled fish taco with corn tortilla was tasty!

Love this place. Server was very helpful. For celiac, do watch out for the chips. The frier is shared with the chili rellenos which are in a batter, so they may not be gf. Ask and they can tell you. I had them and they were okay. No reaction!

We ordered chips and salsa and it tested Nima safe. Ordered Ahi Tostada and it tested Nima safe. They tried making the El Carbon fajitas twice and they didn't test gf on Nima.

Had an extensive gluten-free menu available with request. Most things were naturally gf. Corn chips and tortillas were great. Rice and beans weren't gf though. Awesome service and cocktails and a fun atmosphere.
