They have a separate fryer for corn and flour. That means they have GF chips, taquitos, crispy tacos, fries, etc. clean nice restaurant. At the back of a building took a second to find it. Great service staff was familiar with cross contamination. Made me feel welcome with all my questions. I had chiliquilies it was good a little spicy for me (but I’m a wimp). I didn’t get sick and I’m super sensitive. We will be back!

This is our new favorite Mexican restaurant. Beautiful ambiance and location in Old Town although a little hidden. Most importantly, there are a LOT of gf items and they’re delicious. Great service, fast, and safe to eat. Very underrated place.

There are many GF choices and some are marked on the menu. The food is delicious and the chips are cooked in a dedicated fryer. Everything is homemade including all sauces and tortillas. This is now our go to Mexican food place. We love it and have brought many friends to enjoy this delicious food. The staff is well trained in gluten free. The owner has a gluten intolerance and understands the importance of cross contamination. This is a new place and is very clean. Cocktails are excellent, you will not be disappointed!
