I am editing my review because. While theu were doing great last year, they seem to have stopped reading any changes to the order that are added. They have messed up orders both through catering and through regular ordering on the website.

This resulted in a full family meal having to be remade, a salad redelivered. I really think they just repackaged the fajitas my husband picked up last week that had onions in the box.

Old review:

I order a lot for work and the Catering Manager assured me that they do have a seperate fryer on the other side of the kitchen for chips and they are gluten free at this location. That has changed since I became gf many years ago.

The grilled onions are not. With covid, we have ordered a lot of fajita family meals. They make them with only bell peppers and we get corn tortillas for the gf family members.

I take offense that the "cup of queso" I get to go comes in a 4 ounce container. And people look at me like I'm weird for expecting 8 ounces.

Just the disclaimer on their allergen menu tells me that they are NOT celiac friendly.

Even when told about allergies and given a card with allergies listed, I still receive a plate with the allergen ingredients on it.

Gluten intolerance, I found this place was super knowledgeable. I asked about gluten free, and the waitress asked if it was an allergy or just a preference so she would know if the kitchen staff would need to clean their space and change their gloves.

I ate the chips and salsa, and had the fajita salad with chicken and steak! It was great and I’m feeling great!

Highly recommend!

Although I thought it was my best bet, I got really sick from the steak fajitas unfortunately. I have a feeling it’s due to cross-contamination & the amount of oil used possibly

I’ve eaten here in the past and been fine, but recently had the chicken fajitas exactly as they say to order for gf and had a horrible gluten reaction. To be fair, I ordered online and did not list my allergy, but I usually don’t react badly to cross contamination. Their gf menu is old and I’m wondering if they updated a recipe for something.
