Gluten Free at Fuzzy's Taco Shop

Had friends work in the kitchen and have told me they do NOT have any kind of preparation for gluten free food/preventing cross contamination. I’ve never eaten here without getting sick (despite what staff might tell you)

I ate a grilled shrimp Baja taco, refried beans, chips & queso with no problems. Menu warns about cross contamination. We ate outside on the patio. Not all Fuzzy’s have a patio though.

The cashier when I went indicated he has family with celiac and recommended I not eat there... Basically everything is gluten-free (just google for their specific gluten-free menu), but he said the quesadillas are cooked on the same flat top as the corn tortillas and other items... so, he explained the risk of contamination. It was late in the day, hours past lunch and I was starving; had to eat. It was pretty good (but not good enough to risk being sick)... however... I did not show any signs of gluten exposure after eating there 2 days ago. So, they seemed to do pretty well. Not sure if I'll go back or not.

They had a menu labeled gluten free but at the bottom of the menu, it stated everything on their menu is either cooked in the same oil, made on the grill, or they used the same utensils as all other food.

When I arrived I asked the employee at check out about what their knowledge of GF. If she wasn’t knowledgeable then I needed to speak with the manager. She said he’s not available he went to the bank. She ended up having to call him. She was unable to find their GF menu. They have a disclaimer online that they make every attempt to avoid cross contact but can’t guarantee there wouldn’t be traces of gluten in the food since their food is prepared in a common kitchen. I ordered a breakfast taco. Was watching their preparations in the kitchen. They put the wheat tortillas on the same grill with the corn tortillas. It was apparent that they took no precautions to avoid cross contact. They didn’t change gloves. The same gloves that touch your GF corn tortillas reach into the bag and touch the wheat tortillas so definite cross contamination. They say their chips are GF but they fry them in a common fryer. This was very disappointing since there was a good review of this location. The review of this location however was 3 years ago so I was very cautious and purposefully watched how they prepared it. If you aren’t concerned about cross contamination then you would be fine eating here but for celiacs I would say don’t eat there.

Ordered from the GF menu, loaded chicken nachos. We went for a late lunch around 2:30 to avoid CC and it worked. Did not get sick since they had time to properly handle our food. Paired it up with an Angry Orchard!

Their website lists gluten free options.

Edit: A couple of times, they put my tortilla on the same grill as the wheat tortilla. I went there yesterday, and they seemed to have no idea how to be careful about cc. If I eat there, I feel like I have to be extra careful now. They fry the chips at the beginning of the day, but they have other things in their fryer

Be careful of the chips! They themselves are GF but the chip dust they put on them is not! Make sure to ask for chips without the dust! Staff seemed annoyed about my dietary restrictions

First Time Here. Good food and price. Got a discount for being an EMT which they specifically asked. Decent variety of GF options also DF options. Very knowledgeable & friendly staff!

Celiac friendly?

No

They had a gluten free menu available when ordering. Good options and tasted great.

I ordered GF breakfast tacos, and they came out on flour tortillas. When I mentioned it (super nicely) they flipped the ingredients into a corn tortilla. I said I was celiac and asked them to remake it because I would get sick if it touched a regular tortilla and they laughed at me. Won’t be going back.

The options are plentiful however the CC isn’t worth the risk for mediocre food.

Drinks are bomb. Eat before you go, and treat yo self to a margarita!

I always ask them to change gloves.

I always get the grilled mahi tacos with corn tortillas. My son orders the brisket tacos with corn tortillas. Neither of us have ever had a reaction. Chips are not considered gluten free because they don’t have a dedicated fryer.

Their frozen margaritas with raspberry swirl is delicious!

I don’t believe this location has many safety protocols and that the fryer is shared.

I’ve eaten at other locations (years ago) and didn’t have any problems. I have gotten sick every time at this one, despite trying different combos and options.

Fuzzy’s is a cheap and easy place to go with friends! I wouldn’t go to this location if you have celiac though.

We explained our allergies to the cashier and I felt like she blew us off. After we got our food and got sick we knew for sure she didn’t flag our order. We’ve been to other locations that made sure that they cleaned the grill and didn’t cross contaminate our food.

This is one of a few places in Granbury that I thought were safe for celiacs. Their gluten free menu is kind of hard to find on their website, but if you google gluten free fuzzy’s taco granbury it comes up. Note that all tortillas, shells, chips, etc are cooked in the same fryer and warmed up on the same surface as the flour tortillas so that slashes about half the regular menu. But the gf menu is pretty clear on which items contain those, so it’s not hard to avoid. I called beforehand, as always, and the person who answered assured me that they could handle gf needs. I also had them flag my order, and asked them to change their gloves and use separate utensils when they cooked my veggie fajita bowl. It was ok, fresher than I expected. 3.5/5. Bit of a bummer about the fryer, but what can ya do. I added a photo of their gf menu to this listing in case it’s hard to find.

The staff was very friendly. I have a gluten allergy and ordered off their gluten free menu and before I even left the restaurant I started to have a reaction and a severe one.

Celiac friendly?

No

Gluten free menu with a great selection: at this location (Gilbert AZ) the managers sibling hAs Celiac so they are very knowledgeable about the disease and risks for CC. Dedicated frier in the back! Our new favorite place!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was average and I was slightly nervous about eating the food. I didn’t get sick but if you are celiac I wouldn’t recommend.

This location has had staffing issues before I went Gluten free. I ate lunch there today & they were great about the menu. I did not see gluten free on my order receipt. I asked the cooks (open chef window) if they knew my order was gluten free he said everything back here was. That scared me. I rolled w/ it since I don't know my sensitivity level yet & what I ordered has a pretty low rate of CC anyway. When they called our order up thy said they took all precautions changing gloves & utensils to avoid CC. I did not have any irritations. They pulled through in the end. If you decide to go just be really friendly & tip. It is a crazy place & usually under staffed or the crowds. The food is delicious

I read great reviews on here about it being celiac friendly. I never eat out due to cross contamination but wanted to do so with my family over the holidays. I was most excited about the dedicated fryer for their chips; however their second fryer was broken so they were putting everything in one. I was really disappointed but they did have a decent sized gf menu. I ordered their cheese dip with tortillas and soft beef tacos. Others ordered steak nachos. Everything was extremely good and fresh! Afterwards, I did get really tired and had a small upset stomach but that could’ve been other factors; I did not have any of my typical exposure reactions. I will definitely go back!

Edit: I have since found out that the beef tacos have gluten. My symptoms of exposure have changed a little now and I hadn’t realized it. I changed my rating down to 4 stars bc the staff should’ve informed me I can’t have beef tacos.

I gave this place a try multiple times. I was always assured they had gluten-free options but more often than not I ended up with a reaction. I think there are issues of cross-contamination. I would never eat there if you are celiac.

Celiac friendly?

No

I got so so sick here. They have gluten free options but they’re options that aren’t celiac safe. Definitely don’t recommend if you actually have an allergy

Celiac friendly?

No

The BEST Mexican food ever! There’s a GF menu & dairy free menu. The menus are huge & prices are very affordable. The chips & salsa is AMAZING!! My entire family family that’s not GF enjoyed it too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We tried to order plain nachos with just cheese but it was unable to order online so we ordered on the phone. When we got the food, the nachos weren’t cooked much. The cheese was just tossed on top of the chips and wasn’t cooked.

The staff is very knowledgeable about gluten free preparation. You can get a fresh margarita that is on the rocks gluten free, but not a frozen one. You can have the chips, salsa and guacamole dips. They have an extensive gluten free menu. I love this place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This Bricktown location is well behind the location near Top Golf when it comes to gluten free. They had a hard time locating their one gluten free menu which was full of chips from the shared fryer, notated with an asterisk. There’s no dedicated fryer.

I asked if the margarita swirl was gf. She asked everyone in the back and everyone said, “I think so.” So I actually called the other location and asked them. After a brief hold they told me no and explained why (the margarita mix they use has gluten in it). I was so thankful and I informed the girl there so they’d know too, though I didn’t get the feeling they care.

4 stars bc I’ll give nothing less if I don’t have a reaction and I didn’t.

Not celiac safe because they aren’t knowledgeable/trained on it.

Celiac friendly?

No

The answer is yes, they do have a gluten free menu and there are quite few options but, you pay for the experience rather than the food. The food is good but the restaurant itself is like a cross between Costa Vida and a sports bar. It definitely has a strong sports bar atmosphere. My sister and I split the brisket nacho's and we were both plenty full when we finished. Also, the "Butt Burning" hot sauce is allergen free!

I am so impressed. I’ve never been to Fuzzy’s, even before my diagnosis. I was even more terrified because it was my first time eating out after diagnosis. I was pleasantly surprised that they had a really good selection on their GF menu. Now keep in mind not to have any chips or crispy tacos. They are fried in the same frier as non GF items. But even with knowing this I was able to eat to my hearts content and even had a nice glass of wine with the girls. I was afraid I was going to be left out but I was not at all! I will definitely be going back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We told them wife had celiac and website said gf options. Staff had no idea what we were talking about. Wife felt ill a little while later. Thinking cross contamination. Not recommended.

Celiac friendly?

No

Expansive GF menu, staff was helpful and friendly.

The crew here is terrific and very knowledgeable about the options for gluten free with a separate menu. This location doesn’t cross contaminate with their fried fish and so you can have their chips and tortillas! So awesome!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good, but you need to ask for dietary menue to figure out what you can eat. No problems for me, but cross contamination is possible.

Fuzzy’s in Texarkana does not have a designated fryer for the tortilla chips & crispy taco shells, so you can get cross contamination. (Only reason I gave less than 5 stars) If wanting tacos I eat only their soft corn tortillas & bring my own chips to have with their salsa or queso. Helpful, friendly service!

This place has a gluten free menu but check with the staff. The PDF menu was more liberal than the staff indicated. I appreciated and trusted the staff. There were tons of options. I had egg, cheese, and bacon taco. I also had egg, chorizo & potato taco. Both were tasty and a nice change of pace. I am hoping to visit again for lunch or dinner.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Should be removed from app, they don’t offer gluten free and were quite rude

Celiac friendly?

No

No one with Celiac got sick. Good menu. Knowledgeable staff.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Service is always good and accomendating for my illness. I'm glad to have a place I can eat at and not get sick, will recommend. Best tacos ever!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ate there last night with zero issues. Tacos are corn tortillas but be careful if you ask for crispy. The queso was good too, especially with churizo!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Asked if they had any gluten free items. And the lady working the register informed me that they did not.

I went in having been to other locations. They didn’t not have a gluten free menu and said all meats have gluten. I’m not sure if he wasn’t knowledgeable or if he was telling the truth

Celiac friendly?

No

Went to Fuzzy's for the 1st time and the food was delicious and fresh. They do not have a GF menu but online they offer an allergen document that tells you what you can and cannot eat. I found after discussing it with the staff the soft corn tacos, enchiladas or salads with either grilled veggies, shredded chicken or brisket were my options. The staff had not issue changing their gloves for my meal. The food all came out looming delicious, tasting delicious and #1 perk was I did not get sick. We will definitely be back.

Staff was not knowledgeable about gluten. We found the gluten free menu online. They didn’t have a printed menu at this location.

This location has a dedicated fryer for their chips. Good sized gf menu and staff is knowledgeable. One of my favorites!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I get sick every time I've eaten at fuzzy's

Celiac friendly?

No

Walked in and asked what was gluten free, they had no idea. We walked out. Do not eat here if you want a safe meal.

Celiac friendly?

No

The girl working the counter seemed like she was unsure of gluten free practices and said that she “thought” it wouldn’t be safe from cross contamination. I’m reluctant to post this review because the location may be safe and it was just the worker i encountered tonight. Either way, as a celiac, i couldn’t take the chance so i did not dine here tonight.

Celiac friendly?

No
