Review of La Veracruzana

Easthampton location cross contamination alert:

BE CAREFUL! They certainly have lots of delicious things that can be gluten free, but staff knowledge of what is and is not gluten free is seriously lacking. In addition, there are many items on the menu that are marked as GF but actually aren't when you ask questions. For example, the tortilla chips are marked as GF, but when I asked, I found out that they go in the same fryer as everything else. This includes many gluten-containing foods. Also, there is a dish that contains borracha sauce that is marked as GF. This sauce has beer in it, which isn't gluten free. I pointed out to staff that beer isn't gluten free, and that, therefore, the menu item isn't either. They shrugged it off. I asked that they inform the manager that the menu needed attention, but nothing was done.

Celiac friendly?

No
