We ordered gluten free and non gluten free (my husband's dish). They came out and double checked with us that it was OK for his food. Very careful and the food was absolutely delicious! Try the beef empanada!!
I’ll be honest, my mom was kinda worried about this place not being great with gluten free due to nothing being labeled on the menu. However, the chef informed us that the whole menu was gluten free, and they had a dedicated fryer. I wasn’t glutened and the food itself was great! A lot of appetizers like El Chorizo con Arepita and Los Empanadas also only use a few ingredients which is really good for kids or people who can sometimes be fairly picky like me. My mom and I also ordered a rice dish and while the egg that came with the dish wasn’t great, the rice tasted great and it also came with chicken, fries and plantains! It’s also super reasonably priced! The empanadas are two dollars each and if you’re not the most hungry, 3 of those would probably be enough to fill you up. Overall, we have a hidden gem here, folks! I would very much recommend coming here if you’re looking for a great tasting and reasonably priced lunch with the assurance of no cross contamination!
Told them I couldn’t have gluten, was assured the food was gluten free, and I didn’t not get cross contaminated!

Had one of the tastiest meals I've had in a long time. The wait staff was knowledgeable about gluten. Columbian food protein is corn based. The empanadas appetizers were delicious. I had one of their lunch specials, which I could not finish and ended up taking home and having for dinner.
Staff knowledgeable and helpful about gluten issues, good food, good prices
The staff are super helpful and pointed out to me parts of the menu that would not be gluten free (which were clear, such as breaded food) and there were only a few. The corn empanadas are naturally gluten free and they can use corn tortillas on pretty much any menu item. The food is amazing!! I can't wait to go back
So great! There is only one menu item containing flour - other than that, it is all corn-based and delicious. They are a small local business and hopefully more people check it out. Their portions are also very large for the price - expect to bring leftovers home.
Columbia’s cuisine which naturally does not include wheat flour. There is one dish with breading, everything else is GF (including the empanadas - made with corn flour). Server knowledgeable and able to answer questions. And the food is fantastic!
