It was a decent little place. Not the best food I've ever had but ok. Didnt get sick. Staff was knowledgeable.
Stopped by on vacation for an early dinner. Very friendly, accommodating to gluten allergies. Much of the menu is marked as gluten free and their handheld ticket system lets them clearly mark as you order. I had the taco meal with one pork and one chicken and fried plantains. My daughter, also GF, had the tacos and a salad. So good that we ordered 3 more pork tacos to share! Definitely get the crema- delicious! Based on other reviews we steered clear of the chips, though they are listed as GF and the waitress told us as well. Other non-GF family members had those as a side with queso and were pleased. No reactions and we got to keep on enjoying our vacation!
I had the chicken nanchos last night and defiantly had reactions soon after.
I am guessing their fryer is cross contaminated and not safe despite the menue marking it GF.
I would avoid the chips! :-(

I tested my nachos with a Nima sensor and they had gluten in them.
Wonderful food!!! Gluten free options labeled on the menu and both celiac’s in our group did not get sick.
Everything Gf is labeled and they have a separate fryer for chips. It was sooo good and didn’t get sick! I recommend a bowl.
They know what is gluten free, and will make sure the kitchen knows about other allergies. I had the sofrito bowl and it was great! Ask which meats are gluten free. Tip: Their creme caribe sauce is not dairy free but it can be on the side! Would highly recommend.
Fantastic food, most things are gluten free except for bread/ sandwich buns and wraps. Had sofrito salad bowl with mahi mahi and enjoyed every bite.
called this place to check on options/dedicated fryer, etc given the positive review. The staff said they have a gf bean dish but otherwise not gluten free, and stated even their meats are not gf. Disappointing, but glad I called before going
Delicious choices that can be made GF, safe tortilla and plantain chips, salsa is amazing. The tacos and pulled pork bowls are so good! Very knowledgable about safe handling.
