This is one of my favorite finds of the year so far. I had the best paella I have ever had in my life, and was ensured that there were cross contamination measures taken in the kitchen to keep my food safe. I am a sensitive Celiac and had no reaction. Great vibe, kind staff, and delicious food- highly recommend.

When I mentioned that I needed to order gluten free they asked if I was sensitive to cross contamination from a shared fryer and directed me to safe options. I was also warned to avoid the black beans since they were made with soy sauce It was one of the best meals we've had in the area. I ordered the ensalada de palmitos y madarinas appetizer, the black sea bass special, and the arroz con leche dessert. They modified the daily special to make it gluten free. All were delicious.

Had a nice experience here. We sat at a table in the bar with our kids who both have celiac. The bartender wasn’t super knowledgeable about the gf selections on the menu, but sure did try to help. We ended up getting the vaca frita and ropa vieja, two classic Cuban dishes. All was good. He did inform us before our food came out that the black beans had soy sauce in them, so it was nice to know that he had actually spoken with someone when he placed our order. We shared a flan too. Both kids were fine and had no reaction (daughter is very sensitive). Highly recommend!

The staff were accommodating to gluten free and recommended several dishes that were either GF or could be adapted. Great service and delicious food.
