I was unfortunately glutened here pretty bad despite initially being impressed with the precautions and GF options at first. I won’t be back, not worth the risk.

Very yummy and most things on the menu are GF. Dedicated fryer for fish tacos! Only complaint would be that tacos are very small.

I went to order and asked to talk to a chef and they said that every thing was cross contaminated and there wasn’t anything that was safe for me. I was disappointed but I’m glad that they were upfront about it and didn’t risk me getting sick.

Food was excellent. The menu is not labeled with gluten free items, but basically everything except the flour tortillas and vegan chicken is GF. They also have a dedicated fryer for the chips!

Great GF and dairy free experience. Had a quesadilla with vegan cheese, chicken and mushrooms- and amazing churro bites with sauce. So good!

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.
