Gluten-Free at Maudie's
Mexican Restaurant
They have their menu marked as gluten-free or gluten-free request, so that’s really great. If you ask for gluten-free chips, still bring you out and sealed bag that is gluten-free safe. It wasn’t my favorite Mexican / Tex-mex food, but it has been around a long time and is popular and it was nice to have a safe meal.
Delicious mexican food! Lots of options. Did not get sick.
Great food, everything is labeled. They bring out bagged chips for their gluten free friends.
Not much else going add that others haven't said! If you're looking for basic TexMex but a ton of options, check this location out!
I’ve eaten here so many times and have always had a good experience here! They have gluten free chips and tons of gf options on the menu. They always take precautions very seriously.
We stopped here for a weekday lunch after visiting the wildflower center. I loved having so many options to choose from - I had a minor panic when my husband ordered the same enchilada meal as me, but not GF… our server assured me that mine would be brought out separately from the rest of the family’s. That didn’t happen, but the runner seemed to know which plate was which, and my husband confirmed he had flour tortillas and mine were corn. Despite that panic, other safety protocols were great - I got my own GF chips, in a sealed bag, and the family said they were better than the regular chips. Food was all great.
The menu is clearly marked GF and most things on the menu can be made GF. The normal chips they bring as are not GF (cooked in shared fryer) but if you ask they will bring out GF chips in a bag for you. Have some GF dessert options as well. The only reason I’m giving it four stars is because it was a little spicy to my preference, but the experience and options were great!
We eat here all the time with my celiac daughter and she’s never gotten sick. They have wrapped gluten free chips and are very careful with her dishes. One of our favorite places to eat as a family!
Simply the best GF Mexican Restaurant! From the separate GF chips which are fantastic with the salsa to the GF fajitas or enchiladas!
Los totopos si saben a tortilla mexicana, probé las chalupa y estaban muy buenas
Lots of options on the menu - tell the staff you are GF and they make sure to make it safe and they will bring you a separate bagged chips and salsa.Another great celiac safe place to eat at in Austin!
Been going for years, great experience and great food. Ask for GF chips, a ton of stuff can be GF. It’s all delicious!
Waiter was very thorough and communicative with the kitchen, and made me feel extremely safe and comfortable with what I was eating- GF chips available upon request and most menu items had a GF option
A good, predictable GF option in our area. They have GF chips that are sealed in a separate bag and don’t share the same fryer. Lots of GF items on the menu and they are very amenable to modifications to the menu. No cross-contamination issues in the four years since my son’s diagnosis.
Stopped here for a quick breakfast taco. My waiter and the person who delivered my breakfast both kindly assured me that it would be GF, and it was (as well as yummy and filling). Their tortilla chips, however, are not GF -- but you can request some, which will come in a plastic bag. Sadly, I found that out belatedly, because the guy who dropped off the chips nodded when I asked if they were GF. I asked my server to confirm, and he promptly grabbed the chips off the table and got me the plastic bag of obviously less yummy, but safe, GF chips. All in all, recommend. Plan to patronize this chain again when I'm back in Texas.
Tons of options on the menu - tell the staff you are GF and they will bring you separate bagged chips and salsa. corn tortillas are steamed separately and other precautions are taken. A great celiac safe choice in Austin!
Maudie’s had patient servers, and could make almost anything on the menu gluten free! Our server was knowledgeable and chill, got us our own unopened bag of gluten free chips, and answered any questions we had. I order the Strait Plate gluten free, three loaded beef enchiladas with fried eggs on top. My partner got grilled shrimp fajitas and black beans. They even have a couple of gluten free deserts to choose from and in house ice cream <3
100% recommend!!! We’ll be back.
Food tasted great. I got glued. They were not careful, despite being told I’m strictly gluten free.
Excellent service, my celiac son loved having restaurant fajitas and chips.
Great casual Tex mex spot. My kiddo was really excited to have beef fajitas— they are marinated in soy, but the soy is GF. :)
This place is great! Came here twice on my visit. It was so nice to be able to enjoy texmex Celiac safe! They have special chips that come pre-packaged that are safe. Waiters are knowledgeable about gluten and cc! I got the fajitas with corn tortillas. Amaze!
Love eating here. Telling the waiter you need gf, and they bring you a sealed package of gf tortilla chips. Everything that is marked GF is safe.
I have not had an issue here. They do a great job every time! I did order to-go recently and the gal up front said “I made sure they cooked it on a separate grill! I have to get on to them about that.” Which scares me a little bit because why wouldn’t they just do that if someone had an allergy? Anyway, I haven’t had a reaction and it is good food.
Maudie’s was good with understanding the gluten free needs of a person with celiac. Just make sure the server knows your needs and they will accommodate! She brought out a bag of pre packaged chips since the normal ones they serve are in a shared fryer. I had the chicken powerbowl and had no reaction! Definitely a safe place for someone with celiac.
So amazingly delicious and safe. Totally brought me my own Chips from a bag that was safe. The fajitas were cooked in a separate area and were delicious.
Maudie's is fabulous for gluten allergies. They have separate chips in bags from an outside vendor that are 100% gluten free as opposed to in house ones that are in a shared fryer. I almost always get the fajitas, and they are amazing.
I have heard good reviews for a long time about Maudie’s but haven’t gone since my diagnosis. The menu has a big sign on the front about how much gluten free food they have. I was not confident in the restaurant after talking with the waiter and the speed with which my food came how. I had the Stuffed avocado shrimp salad and it was not good. I don’t feel sick at this point but I would not go back
Great food and service. GF chips were brought out in a sealed bag. Server was knowledgeable about GF options. We will definitely be returning!
Be very careful. I asked for gluten free chips which they promptly brought to my table. I then ordered gluten free tacos. They brought FLOUR tortilla tacos not just once but TWICE to me!!! And the second time the person who brought my plate told me flour was gluten free. I told him their flour tortillas are not gluten free. It took three plates before they got the order right. I was very frustrated and concerned. Maudie’s used to be a place I always felt safe but not any longer. I don’t know if they truly started over with meat or just put it on corn tortillas. It took a long time between each of the three attempts but I’m not sure what they did. Guess I’ll find out later tonight as it usually takes a few hours before I get sick.
Make sure you ask for gluten free chips because I started eating the ones on the table and was then told they’re only gluten friendly. The server brought me gluten free chips in a sealed bag and a separate salsa, so they were knowledgeable about cross contamination. Their house margarita was gluten free and they clearly mark which food items are gluten free and which can be made gf upon request.
Gluten free options marked on the menu and server was knowledgeable about cross contamination, options, and modifications. Gave me chips in a sealed bag and my own salsa. I got the chicken fajitas over greens and it was delicious!
Their marked GF menu makes everything so easy!!!
They bring chips in a bag if you ask for gf. I had guacamole and carne guisado with refried beans and rice. It was delicious! No reactions.
I’m rating as a 3 due to the horrible lack of service. Our waiter took forever to take our order. The person who delivered our food to the table was very nice and helpful. We ran out of water twice and had to get up and get our own refills. When eating spicy food, that’s never a good thing. I also ordered a margarita. I asked the waiter if he could make sure the margaritas were made with 100% agave, to be gluten free. He said all were GF. It took 18 minutes to get the drink and I was already finished with my meal. When we got the ticket, my drink was $12.95! More than our meals! I did not get sick, so there is a positive. This was our first experience at this location. We will just stick with the Austin location. They are more competent at that location.
They were super attentive to me informing them that I had celiac disease. Chips came out in a sealed bag, waiter asked all the right questions. I felt safe eating there and had no issues after the meal. Would definitely eat here again.
GF items marked on the menu. They have GF chips and salsa upon request. The waitress added an allergy marker to my meal for the kitchen. Great Tex-mex place! We ate here a lot before I was diagnosed and I’m glad we still can.

Maudie’s has a great selection of gluten free meals. They also have gluten free chips (ask for them) and are good about noting allergies.
Love Maudie's! I come here often and I've never been sick. Ask for GF chips. GF items marked on the menu.
I eat here ofter with no reaction. I love their fajitas and green salad and their mushroom quesodillas.
Yummy Tex-Mex and celiac friendly. You can request a separate packaged bag of GF chips when they bring out the chips and salsa. My daughter ordered some GF tacos, and the waiter asked if she wanted crispy or soft tacos. She replied crispy, but then he came back a minute later to ask her if soft was ok because the crispy ones weren’t fried in a dedicated fryer. Was nice to see that the kitchen was paying attention to those details! Had a great meal and my very sensitive celiac daughter felt comfortable eating there and did not get sick.
One of the best and most celiac friendly restaurants I have ever been too! They’re also very friendly for shellfish allergies.
Excellent gluten free options. The menu is well marked and the staff is well educated. The sweet potato hash was amazing.
Great margs and GF chips come in a separate packages. My enchilada had many bones in it but the Fajitas are good
It will be strictly a margs and queso place for us from now on.
As some who is gf and df, finding good Mexican food is hard. Loved Maudies!! Staff was actually enthusiastic about serving their gf food and with good cause. It was so good!
Pretty good Tex Mex food. Had the appetizer dip trio and enjoyed the guacamole and the queso, not so much the bean dip. Make sure to ask for GF chips - they come in a separate bag. I had the chili cheese enchiladas and the rice/beans, which were pretty good.
It was busy, but the waitress noted my allergy and made sure my meal turned out GF. The queso and chips are GF (you can ask for chips that are bagged & not cross-contaminated in the shared oil). The menu is VERY thorough and clear about what is GF and what can be modified to be GF- it’s most items.
Maudies is the absolute best. The food is fantastic, the prices are pretty inexpensive, and the gluten free menu options are endless. The gluten free items are marked on their menu and it seems like most of the menu is/can be gluten free. The staff is super knowledgeable. They bring a sealed GF bag of chips for you by request. It’s rare now that I’m gluten free to go to a place and be overwhelmed (in a good way) by the number of options. The food is sooooo good, GF or not. My goal is to try something new every time we go there! I feel completely safe eating there and will continue to be a regular customer because of that and the great staff. Maudies, you’re my favorite!
Staff was very knowledgeable when asked about gluten free options for dine in or take out. Brought separate GF chips and salsa before our food came out (standard chips and salsa are not GF).
We got the fajitas without cheese and sour cream so DF/GF.
Menu is well marked with gluten free and gluten alternative. They were very helpful when it came to ordering.
They also had GF chips that were brought out and sealed so you knew they weren’t the normal ones.
