I’ve eaten here multiple times with no issues. The chips are in a dedicated fryer and the staff is very knowledgeable about which menu items can be made gluten free. Highly recommend the portabello fajitas.

I have celiac and got so sick here. The waiter talked about how they have separate fryers, they have allergy counters, cooks change gloves and everything. They seemed to have it together, they were so confident. I got way more than CC, I was extremely sick after eating here. I also only got a salad.

They gave me separate chips and salsa that were gluten free and the tacos were delicious. However, I got glutened and became insanely sick all night and the next day.

Don’t have a GF menu but don’t let that deter you. They are very knowledgeable on GF! Brought me separate, GF chips that aren’t fried in the contaminated fryer. All of their tacos are GF with corn tortillas. Margarita was exceptional! We ate outside and loved the entire experience! ❤

Fabulous outdoor patio. There is no gluten free menu but staff are well-versed in allergies and gluten free. All tacos, rice and beans are GF. Margaritas are fresh squeezed. Chips are done in a shared fryer but they will bring you a basket of safe chips for the salsa. Enjoyed the short rib tacos. Great experience, will return!
