The tacos are mostly gluten free and there is a line in the menu that indicates which have gluten!
However the lady taking my order said “I think they’re all gluten free” and didn’t seem to know or ask the manager about it. So be careful. I also felt a bit bloated afterwards because I’m sensitive to cross contamination. I would try to ask more about their preparation to the manager instead.
They changed the tamales to not be gf anymore; since I had already memorized what had been gf on the menu, I didn't realize. I did mention though that I was celiac and that I couldn't have any gluten cross-contamination. Either this was not communicated to the kitchen, or the kitchen didn't think to flag anything.
Once I realized I had eaten gluten (the tamales sucked, not worth being glutened at all, but the tacos are good), I spoke with the cashier. He did not care at all, even when I told him I might throw up.
I then contacted management, who was pretty nice until I called them out on how they changed their menu. They tried to gaslight me, and then I sent photographic proof, and they never responded, clearly not wanting to be sued or anything. I would have been okay going there again if I had not been gaslit by management and disrespected by the cashier. It sucks to not be able to go to a more affordable, celiac-friendly place anymore, but I never want my money going there again.
NEW: They now use WHEAT FLOUR tortillas for breakfast burritos. Wheat flour tortillas are prepared on the same grill as the GF corn tortillas. The website has not been updated to reflect this new gluten ingredient and is misleading about GF items in the kitchen. Guisados chain is not allergen aware and no longer safe for Celiacs. Sad because the tacos were really good!

Awesome place. I told the staff I have Celiac and am very sensitive to gluten. They advised what was safe. Almost the entire menu was safe. We had ceviche, two tacos, and horchata. It was fantastic and I did not have any reaction.
Tortillas are handmade! From dough to your hands. Ingredients are fresh. Breakfast tacos are amazing!!
