Fred's Mexican Cafe

Corn chips have their own fryer! Most tacos can be made GF by swapping flour tortilla for a corn one. I ordered the nachos, they were not very good but I didn’t get glutened!

Love this place but when you order don't forget to ask for corn tortillas.

The menu had very few options and the staff did not understand what gluten free is. Not celiac friendly either

Celiac friendly?

No

people we're helpful and the gf menu was informative and decently sized like most mexican restaurants. I would go again.

I ordered enchiladas which say they are made with corn tortillas on the menu. Also verified with the waitress when ordering. The waitress was not knowledgeable about gluten allergies and I had to ask other staff members questions about what foods were “safe” to eat. I was extremely sick within 2 hours of eating there. Would not recommend going here if you’re intolerant, and especially if you’re celiac.

We asked about gluten free for my daughter who has Celiac. They were very responsive. Chips are fried separately. They checked on spices for us, which was Lawry’s seasoned salt. No issues with chips at all. She was happy and enjoyed chips, salsa and guacamole.

Just went in and asked for any gluten-free options. The server said nothing was gluten free because it all came with tortillas. Didn't even bother to check the difference between corn or flour or offer any options. So disappointed

I have two kids with celiac and I am gluten intolerant. I called after reviewing the menu, to make sure they could modify for /accommodate us, and was told in 2 different calls that we could have almost anything modified. Sadly, after arriving at the restaurant, we found that it wasn’t so simple. My daughter likes Kalua pork, so ordered the taco plate (~$20) and was denied Mexican rice because they put flour(!) in it. Seriously, just why? The taco were small and the pork was sparse and dry and chunky, not like a true Kalua pork. I ended up having to order her two carne asada tacos ala cart at another $15 to fill her up. We ordered shrimp tacos for the other kid and myself, it ended up being a very expensive bland and worrisome meal. The server knew what was safe and not, but our choices dwindled down to a few things (small portions) and I felt no security that we wouldn’t be glutened. We doubled up on our GliadinX supplement and no got sick, so there’s that. The place is a Moose Mcgillycuddy’s establishment so don’t count on cleanliness, value, quality, nor family environment. It feels like a drunken beach bar but it wasn’t as fun. I wouldn’t return.
