— Excellent

I definitely think they take allergies seriously, but I really disagree with the hype from other reviews on the actual taste of the food. The calamari is made with cornmeal so it's a lot like eating rubber bands covered in sand. Everything was just okay, and not remotely worth the price tag.

The staff was very knowledgeable about Celiacs Disease. The manager brought out our food and made a comment that I shouldn’t try my husband’s enchiladas because the mole was not GF.

Our server was amazing and not afraid to check on any ingredients I had questions about.

The staff was very knowledgeable about gluten free. The options were clearly labeled. They have a dedicated fryer so I was able to enjoy the chips. Attractive location and great service.

Yes

The food was amazing! My boyfriend and I got the enchiladas suiza and the flautas. Both were fantastic. Everything was clearly labeled and delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Mexican Radio can be on the pricey side, but with all of the allergy-friendly options, I find it totally worth it! Almost everything on their menu can be made gluten free and is clearly marked. They also have icons for vegan and vegetarian friendly dishes. Bonus: they have vegan cheese and vegan crema for us folks who are also dairy free! They have two locations, there is another one in Hudson, NY. But THIS one has a dedicated gluten free fryer as well. The staff has always been very accommodating and helpful in answering my questions.
