Have eaten here several times with no unhappy tummy reactions. Staff is knowledgeable when you order. They recently redid the menu and are working on a new gf one. When you order they have a gluten allergy warning they add to your order. The queso is gf! Have tried the Democrat and the pork tacos on corn tortillas. Very tasty! Highly recommend 👌
I have eaten there for months with no issues. I love their food. They have a place when ordering in the app to indicate gluten allergy.
They got rid of the gluten free menu 😭 I still order corn tortilla tacos.. Wish they used separate fryers

Warning!!!! I asked today if the chips are cooked in a separate fryer from the fried chicken they use on some tacos. The cashier wasn’t sure, so she went to the back and asked and told me that they DO fry them both in the same fryer. She said they use a separate basket. (Which obviously doesn’t help anything.) She said she was told the risk of cross contamination was like 1%. The reason I asked is that my celiac daughter has gotten sick the past two times we have eaten there (we were originally told the chips were gf and fried separately). We are so sad to lose this option as my daughter loves the chips and queso. I do know they can make some things gf, but the chips are not safe.
They have a menu that lists gluten-free items. Food was very good. Had no adverse reaction.
Staff was aware and friendly. Food was excellent! Not sure on celiac friendly
Staff gave me a gluten free menu when I asked for it and they answered all my questions about the ingredients. Food was fresh and delicious! Eat here if you get the chance!
Most everything can be gluten free with a corn tortilla, even fried choices can be made not fried. The chips are made in a dedicated fryer and the queso is gluten free! I did not have a problem eating here at all!
My 2 daughters have celiacs and we have never had an issue eating here. Chips are made in their own fryer so that are gluten free! They usually get chips and guacamole and the bacon, egg, and cheese gluten free tacos. Food is great, service is fast, and the servers and really polite.

Update!!! Good lesson in staying vigilant. Went back a couple of weeks ago and ordered my normal “safe” option. Fortunately the manager took my order, and caught that the recipe had recently changed and it was no longer GF (beer added to the marinade)! Dang! She did share a printed GF menu (attached) - will always ask for going forward.
Good tacos with lots of protein. Plan ahead by looking at their website for GF options and ask order to be flagged as GF. All is made in back, and I don’t know about their kitchen protocols. I get the same thing every time I go and feel safe with that.
Delicious! They have a “gluten conscious” menu online and will note that the order needs to be gluten free if you ask when ordering. I got the chicken fajita and fresh avocado tacos, and both were great if a little spicy (I have a low spice tolerance). The manager stopped by our table while we were eating and brought us free chips and queso when we said it was our first time there. He explained that they have a dedicated fryer for the chips and even brought out a bag of the cheese they use so I could confirm it was gluten free. Overall, it was a great experience!
I went even after reading the previous review. We informed the staff when taking our order that I could not have gluten as it will make me sick. I was I formed that they would mark my food with a note so there was no cross contamination. Before we left, I was starting to have reactions to the food and it’s the only thing I have ate today. Will not be going back.
I had heard good things about Torchy's from GF friends, but the Cashier was not at all informed on GF. She assured me that the kitchen was well informed and could wipe things down, use separate utensils, etc. But they brought me a taco with fried tortilla strips on it, even after we had talked about the fact that their chips are not gluten free like they claim, since there's a shared fryer. I didn't eat it, to be safe. Definitely wouldn't recommend
