I will agree with the review about the staff not fully knowing everything. I’ve gone here a bunch of times, and today I was met with someone who wasn’t totally sure what cross-contamination meant, but he pulled someone back from the kitchen and I was able to speak to them directly. It seems like the only gluten on their menu is the burrito/flour tortilla. So the fryer is 100% gluten-free, the tacos are all on corn tortillas, and you can even get plantain chips or corn chips for the sauces/guacamole. But if you are celiac like me, I would recommend Hugos tacos instead, similar food at a much cheaper price, and they are very very aware of cross-contamination and what’s on their menu.

EDIT- after getting home I got super sick. Used my Nina tester and got a “gluten found” result. The 3rd line was super faint so I’m guessing cross contamination but not ideal for a celiac.

Lots of GF and vegan options. Delicious food. The vegan queso is unbelievable. I truly couldn’t believe it was vegan! They also have amazing churro waffle bites that are totally GF!

I am celiac and the staff at this location seemed very uninformed about what that actually means. There was a mix up with my order and when I wanted to confirm that it was safe for me to eat, the staff gave me a hard time. I ended up sending it back and reordering again to be completely sure I got the correct meal. It’s good that their menu is mostly GF but since they do use flour tortillas, there is still a risk for CC. To me it felt more like a “trendy” GF spot as opposed to celiac safe.

Love this place & almost everything is and is labeled as gluten free! Just can't have the burritos.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very good California themed Mexican food. Fresh bowls and ingredients. Margherita was so so.

Ate here and it was delicious, and I had no issues.

We had a variety of tacos (really recommend the fried mushroom and the fried mahi mahi), and the quesadillas. The churro bites were also great for dessert.

We didn’t have the bowls, so I can’t say whether they are a safe option.

The one comment I’d make is service was very very slow, so if you’re in a rush this isn’t the place to go to. Apart from that we had a very positive experience.
