I’ve eaten here a couple of times. I always order the chicken and steak faijitas with a side of guacamole. I don’t eat the rice, beans, or chips. The serves don’t seem super knowledgeable on celiac safe, so I stick to my same meal.
I’m not a very sensitive celiac, but the servers were very knowledgeable about cross contamination, etc. and able to accommodate for my dairy intolerance also. As a previous review mentioned, the rice is unsafe as it’s made in shared fryer
Do not recommend for multiple reasons: 1) no GF menu, you are depending on having a waiter that knows something about GF. 2) the food is just passable and definitely not authentic. 3) the noise level is deafening.

The food was amazing, the place is cool. We have some gluten sensitive people in our family and one celiac. Our gluten sensitive people did fine, but our celiac family member got glutened.
I cannot begin to describe how amazing this place is! Not only is the ambiance chill and interesting, the service is incredible! Since being diagnosed as Celiac, I had yet to taste good mexican food outside of my own kitchen...until this place was introduced. The flavors are bar none! I got to enjoy a flour sized burrito prepared in a corn tortilla and they serve other goodies like menudo, chile verde, and pozole. The servers are all quite knowledgeable about Celiac and GF necessities. In fact, when I ordered rice with my meal, he informed me that it was not safe since it is prepared in an unsafe manner. I would've been glutened if it wasn't for him! I wish I remembered his name, he was polite, informed and ensured all measures were taken to aid in my safety. Give yourself some time though, the restaurant is quite popular so there is likely to be a wait. A call ahead can give you the approximate wait time so you can plan accordingly.
The staff was very good and knew lots of stuff about gluten free. They had almost everything on their menu gluten free. Great food and Great find
