Kind of a late review, but I ate here on October 30, 2024 and at that time nothing that was fried was safe. I had eaten here over the summer and I could have almost everything on the menu. At some point they added a churro to the fryer which made all crunchy things unsafe. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly and what I could eat was very good, but I was also very limited which was a bummer.
So great we ate here twice on our trip! They have a separate fryer so you get to enjoy their amazing guac and chips! They even have a fried fish taco that was crispy and delicious. Most of their items are gluten free minus just a few things. Great service, knowledgeable staff and overall a great experience! (Their drinks are delicious too!) highly recommend

SO DAMN GOOD; they use GF cup for cup flour, and the fryers are safe so you can enjoy chips!
The guacamole, salsa, and chips were divine - as were both the fish and the chicken al pastor tacos. Highly recommend visiting and trying everything out
I went there for a birthday lunch between wine tasting and it was so nice to have an actual sit down lunch on a beautiful patio instead of just taking food with me. They said there were only like three things on the menu that HAVE gluten and the waiter totally got it.
We got the pastor tacos and the BREADED FISH TACOS which were such a treat and SO good. Spicy Mayo is pretty spicy on them so ask for it on the side if you have a sensitive, celiac tongue like I do. And they brought my mango sorbet which was delightful. And I feel totally fine the day after!
Everything is gluten free besides the flan and quesadilla. They are very knowledgeable on Celiac Disease. Chips and guacamole is a must when coming. I got the al pastor tacos and the carnitas tacos. The al pastor was really good with the pineapple too! For dessert I got the raspado de fresca too. Also, their margaritas are amazing and you can get a pitcher for $50 either frozen or on the rocks! Ask for Carlos and he’ll take great care of you!
Amazing entire menu is GF but avoid the enchiladas with the mole sauce if you’re not used to that-not your normal enchiladas! Lol But all good!
So nice to be able to order chicken enchiladas with mole! Margaritas were delicious too. Everything on their menu except for two desserts is GF.
Entire menu (minus croutons and desserts) gluten free. Outstanding flavors and good service. Highly recommend!
I was told the whole menu was GF except for the croutons on the salad. I got the enchilada, it was ok - personally wasn’t a huge fan of the chocolate sauce but it was still good. The refried beans and rice were amazing. Did have a very slight reaction about 45 minutes later, but not terrible. Not sure if it was due to the food or something else. I also had the margaritas. The waiter was a little hesitant and I was a little unsure of her answers but there was one review online saying their whole menu was safe except the dessert. I would still say be cautious.
Whole menu is gf with a dedicated fryer (except for a few desserts). Fried fish tacos are gf. Really tasty Mexican.
