Find GF and other allergen info here: https://madmex.com/menus/

I've been going to Mad Mex forever. Their food is amazing. It's hard to order the gf options online unless you do pickup, but ypu can ask for corn tortillas instead of flour on most things.

I'm very gluten sensitive and not fully celiac, and I will eat out of the shared fryer so I can't comment on what that experience is. But I've never had issues when I specify that I can't have any gluten ingredients.

There is a PDF that lists all of the allergens (gluten, dairy, etc). Also gives you sub options. I opted for the Mahi Mahi tacos - subbed in Corn tortillas and no aioli. Yummy. Nice treat for Friday Happy Hour.

Have eaten at this location many times. Servers were knowledgable and helpful with the menu. Full allergen menu. Deconstructed burritos are great.

Asked for gf menu, had no clue what I was talking about (none of the 3 hostesses at stand) Told me they thought it was in regular menu (it wasn't). Looked it up on website. Not very educated. Food was tasty once I figured out what I could have on the website (that had many broken links).

Mad Mex has been a go to for years since I was first diagnosed. Menu isn’t always marked but staff is knowledgeable. Their main gluten item is wheat tortillas and they can easily substitute for corn. Their chips are pre packaged and are safe. I always know this is a safe and delicious place to eat!
