Absolutely love this place. The children sour cream enchiladas are delicious and gluten free. Get the bean and cheese nachos as an appetizer!!! Love this restaurant and food is so good!

I ordered some food for take out and didn’t get sick! I ordered the Gallo Pollo. I spoke to a server ahead of time on the phone and explained my situation. He actually seemed pretty knowledgeable about allergens and cross-contamination. I have been there several times in the past and this was my best experience so far with the staff

I’ve had enchiladas and nachos here without issues. The food is pretty decent too so it’s nice to have another option.

We eat here on a regular basis. I am pretty sensitive as a celiac and I stick to chips, queso, and sour cream enchiladas. I’ve never gotten sick here!

Not gluten free, they call it “gluten friendly”. Absolutely not, you will get sick. :(

I got glutened here! I ordered the nachos which are marked gluten free on the menu. When I let the waiter know that I had celiac/gluten allergy and to let the kitchen know he was pretty rude and assured me that “everything was made with corn”. The guy from the kitchen who brought my food out had flour all over his apron also. We found out later by calling and asking a manager who told us that the chips used for nachos are made in a facility that also produces items with wheat so could have cross contamination. Who knows if everything else on the nachos is actually GF. I would not trust this place if you have celiac.

This is our go to Mexican food for my daughter with celiac. The chips are gf fried at chip factory and just put in a warmer here- not fried in shared fryer. All enchiladas are made with corn. Mex rice is GF. Queso is gluten free. Tortilla soup. Huge GF menu. Need to tell the chef about allergy while ordering. Beware of things on menu gf that are fried, they do share a fryer. We come here like every other week for 5 years. My daughter has never gotten sick eating here. She reacts badly to glutenings.

Second time in a few months I’ve been here. Staff seems knowledgeable and GF is labeled on the menu. They even have a couple dessert options as well!

The staff was knowledgeable- good thing, because there are many things on the menu labeled GFF (gf friendly) that are definitely not. Corn tortillas, for example, are cooked on the same surface as flour. So not safe for me. I was also warned away from the refried beans because of likely cross contamination. I ended up having tortilla soup with no tortilla strips, which was good. But I dislike menus claiming to be gf-friendly when they aren’t even making an effort.

Great selection for GF. When finally diagnosed with Celiacs, I was worried I would miss out on Tex Mex. I’m not worried anymore.

Love this place, lots of options marked on the regular menu. The chips are safe too! I go here about 1-2 times a month. I did get cross-contaminated once, so proceed with caution.

Had the combination meat/chicken/shrimp fajitas with a corn taco shell and it was delicious. Restaurant has some great art pieces and has outside dining area. Waitstaff is decent.
