Rio Mambo

They no longer have a GF menu, but based on the version I found online, I have ordered the Tacos Camarones twice and did not seem to have a problem. Once I ordered via door dash and another at the restaurant and asked the waiter to have the staff change their gloves, I don’t know if they did or not.

Out here for a conference and needed a fun place to grab a bite to eat and between the reviews and their menu, this one looked like a winner and it absolutely was. It’s clearly a place locals love and our waitress was knowledgeable on what could be made gluten free and what could not. Marked it as such on my order so the kitchen team knew to take extra precautions too. Definitely would recommend popping by. I had the Vallarta Del Mar and it was super tasty!

First time I ate here and ordered gf, it was good. No reaction. Second time- had a reaction. I imagine it was cc or maybe something got in the friers. Or maybe the queso? I don’t know. I ordered off the gf menu and ordered the same thing both times but only reacted one time. Third and fourth time here- no reaction.

We have been dining Gluten Free with celiac disease at Rio Mambo in south Fort Worth almost weekly since 2010. They have always been very careful and accommodating. Of course, some servers are more knowledgeable than others, but most servers do know how to take your order and mark it "gluten free" for the kitchen. They are updating their menu, so hard to get a hold of one of their marked up gluten free menus at this time, so ask for a manager. It has easily been the most reliably safe place for our family of 3 celiacs (1 who is very sensitive) to eat and not get sick for over a decade. Their regular table corn chips and the large rectangular ones served with some appetizers are all corn and are safe.
