Usually Mexican restaurants are a safe place for me to eat. This place made me si k. Not gluten free. Avoid!
11/9/19 Another great meal. Steamed enchiladas and a no-Rito chicken bowl. Yummmmmm!! Thanks to Nicole! 3/5/19 Still a great place to eat. The manager, Nicole, has a sister with Celiac so she “gets it” and I’ve never gotten sick. They can even steam enchiladas!! Ask them to get rice and beans from a new tray to positively avoid cc. From 3/2018 Have eaten here quite a few times- I let them know I'm celiac and ask that they prepare my food from fresh trays of chicken, etc. I get the chicken No-rito bowl. Rice, lettuce, etc all from new trays to avoid the possibility of cross contamination. Very good service.

Mediocre texmex. They only have salads and rice bowls that are assured gluten-free. The chips share a fryer with unsafe foods. It's cheap--kids eat free on Sundays--and that's all it has going for it.
The only GF options are the burrito bowls and salads. Chips are NOT safe since they fried in a shared fryer.
Love the food here, and have never gotten sick. Just be smart about what you order. I get the bowl with rice, chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole, and cheese. Chips, salsa, guacamole, queso are all safe. There's an allergen list on the website. Very easy to order online and it's ready when you get there!

Staff is very pleasant and helpful! It helps to arrive when it is not real busy so they can take their time preparing your food using all of the Celiac safety precautions (which they did). I ordered a burrito bowl. All of the proteins are GF and the rice, black beans, cheese, Lettuce, tomato, onions, are as well. The chips and taco shells are NOT. The meal was filling but it sure would've been nice to have some chips for texture! Price? There were 3 of us eating and before tip it was $56 and some change (no alcohol). Pleasant environment. Very clean. Great place for folks of all ages!
I ordered a taco with a corn tortilla and was careful about toppings to avoid gluten and dairy. The manager came out after my order was placed to let me know the tortillas are fried with gluten items. He was so kind and helped me build a rice bowl instead for no additional charge. I couldn’t have the chips either, but he gave me a corn salsa side instead. Fantastic customer service!
Mexican restaurant. Serves rice and salad bowls. Chips are corn.
There is no longer a gf menu and the manager said everything is cross contaminated and it is not a place that is safe for celiacs
Corn tortillas not gluten free here. Only options are bowls
