Matador

I am gluten sensitive, not celiac, so normally cross-contamination isn’t as big of a concern for me. But I keep having reactions and giving it another try because their menu is labeled. Don’t eat here or believe the labels if you are very allergic.

The do have GF options here, and my server was helpful and knowledgeable. However many of the items on the menu that are noted as GF are NOT GF because the shared fryer. My server helped me pick out items that are actually GF and double checked with the kitchen. Food was pretty good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly for sure. Just not the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. Not a terrible place, but not my top 5 for Mexican food even.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Seemed celiac friendly with some options and the waitress was very knowledgeable about what to inform celiac customers but unfortunately they only have one frier so simple things like chips were not gf for celiacs (super sad bc the nachos looked great).

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not that many options for celiacs if you’re being careful about shared surfaces.

soo good. server knew what to avoid

Celiac friendly?

Yes

WOW! I ate here last night for the first time and I can't tell you how impressed I am with my server, manager and chef. All worked to make sure my food (I have celiac disease) was safe and delicious for me. I will definitely go back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love that they have many GF options on their menu. The GF quesadillas are delicious!

so very tasty!! absolutely a great spot will continue to go back.. GF menu is large, food is fresh and flavorful. They say they are Tex-Mex and I had avoided them for years because of it (not a tex mex fan!) i would never think of them as Tex Mex as much as just foodie/gourmet mexican. grab some friends and head over there now!

Good food but ask questions. Waiter sad the tortilla chips are GF but cooked in fryer with breaded products—so not GF.

Looking online it looks like there are a lot of gf options which is great. But anything fried (even corn tortillas and chips) are not gf. So that limits the possibilities but it was still good. I got the matador bowl without tortilla strips and it was pretty good. Waitress knew what she was talking about.

The tortilla chips are NOT gluten free even though listed as gluten free. They are fried in a shared fryer. Food was just okay. Will not return. Service was horrible.

We have eaten here a dozen times with no adverse reactions. Happy hour cuts the food prices drastically. Recommend the Brussel sprouts and goat cheese jalapeños.
