It was fine for gluten free but as a restaurant the food was very bland. I prefer a strong sauce and sometimes spicy flavor but my chicken fajitas were just okay.

They were very aware of their celiac patrons. The only gluten item is their flour tortillas. Dedicated fryer. Felt very safe! Awesome spot.
