Délicieux !! Tout est sans gluten. Tout près de la plage en plus sans être parmi la foule. Le tacos au poisson est décadent !

It’s not every day that a fish taco changes my life, but today was the rare day. OMG! Almost everything in the place is gluten free. AH-MAZINGLY DELICIOUS! The fish is fried in gf batter. Super yum!

We love this restaurant! Lots of gf options and the food is so good. We ate there twice while in town, no problems at all!
Super yummy. Had the fajita bowl. Can sub vegan cheese to make dairy free :)
Excellent. Fresh. Safe. Dedicated fryer. Highly recommend. Almost everything is naturally gluten free.
Delicious. We had the fajita del Rey and shrimp en fuego bowls. All customisable. Corn chips are gf. Guac with pomegranate was amazing. Rang first to ask what to avoid. Most of the menu is gf.
So many options! Everything can be made gluten free, amazing food.
Great food. Wide selection of GF. Multiple options to mix and match combinations.
The food was delicious and everything was labeled. The waiter was great at explaining all the bowls and tacos. I got the taco sampler. Would highly recommend the chicken tinga taco and burrito Mexicana.
Had lunch here. My daughter is celiac. Knowledgeable staff. No issues.
The beer batter mahi mahi tacos were incredible. Love this place. Went back for seconds.
So amazing. Looked like most things on the menu, except the burritos, were gluten free. They assured me that the only things fried with the chips were chips, and all the chips and plantain chips were GF.
Menu clearly marked, chips were gf, food was good, my celiac daughter enjoyed her quesadilla, my gf burrito was very good.
Dedicated fryer, knowledgeable staff. I love their gluten-free burrito, chips, and churro waffles. Menu is all clearly labeled.
The food is amazing, but unfortunately there was cross-contamination: my friend who has celiac disease got very ill later in the evening after eating here.
I had one of the few gluten-free quesadillas I've had since being diagnosed as a celiac here. It was the not the best quesadilla I've ever had, but it was definitely good for street-food while walking around Venice Beach. The chips and queso was quite tasty as well. The menu is easy to read and clearly indicates which items are GF (there's a lot to choose from). Did not get sick too which is always nice. :) Only one star off as service was a little slow and took a while to get our food.
Food was gone before I could even take a picture that did it justice. So so good! Staff is very educated! Place is small and busy which was a good sign! They have a gluten free burrito for goodness sakes! We got the burrito and also the gluten free quesadillas which were both so amazing!!
Clear gluten-free menu and a nice atmosphere. We had tacos and a bowl which were delicious. Recommended if you like Mexican style food. Close to the beach.
Lots of gf items on the menu, the person taking our order seemed very familiar with gf needs. The large gluten culprit is flour tortillas- We asked about separate prep areas and were notified that the gluten free tortillas (for burritos) and corn tortillas (for tacos)are cooked on the same surface as the flour tortillas. We truly appreciated their transparency in this. Ordered a burrito bowl, which *seemed* safe. As of the next morning I do not have any significant symptoms or problems.
The food itself was FABULOUS, my husband and I both enjoyed it.
Pretty much everything was glutenfree, they even have glutenfree burritos. It was delicious. We’re planning on coming back again here since it was so good.
Very authentic tacos and bowls. Got to choose a base and the pick your protein and cheese of choice. Everything on the menu was gluten free except the burritos and quesadilla. Very cute and would definitely go back. The line was out the door so that shows how popular it was. You order at the counter and they bring you your food to enjoy in a nice outdoor or indoor seating area.
Everything was gluten free except the burritos cause of the flour tortilla. I had the carne asada tacos and felt symptoms shortly after. Since there is a dedicated gluten free fryer I knew it wasn’t the tortilla chips and salsa. It must’ve been the taco corn shells cross contaminated in the heating process or something. But I do not feel well at all.
So great! Literally everything is gluten free except the burrito wraps and staff is super helpful to make sure there’s no cross contamination from those. Food was amazing and totally safe!
