Rubio's

Tried it for lunch. As soon as we walked in, we saw a woman cleaning tables and just asked her really quick about gluten free options I explained about cc. She stopped what she was doing to take my order (she said she would do it so I wouldn’t have explain it again) she looked everything up and followed my whole order thru! Food was amazing! I’m bummed I didn’t get her name but she was awesome! Best fast food experience I’ve had since I was diagnosed.

Yes

My go to fast food in San Diego! Almost all the tacos are made with corn tortillas. I go for the street tacos and ask for no cheese on the beans, and then it's totally dairy free too. I know the chips are made in a shared fryer, so avoid if you are sensitive.

The food is quite good, but I ate here so many times thinking it was Celiac safe because of their allergen menu... When I got sick the third time I should've freaking realized, but it took a cashier finally saying "you know this isn't Celiac safe, flour tortillas have been ALL over the grill" for me to realize it was definitely gluten. I know, dumb on my part, it was just the only place around for me so I ignored the truth.
