Mexicali Border Cafe

Since we were staying at a hotel right across the street hubby and I decided to stop in for lunch. When I asked the waiter about my gluten free options he asked if I was celiac. When I said yes he very politely advised me not to eat there. He kept apologizing but I thanked him for his thoughtfulness and we left to eat elsewhere

Have went here twice and the first time the waitress was very knowledgeable however the second time the waitress tried to convince that the chips fried in gluten contaminated oil were ok...the food had good flavor but seemed a bit over priced.
