What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Tacos made with corn tortillas (requested as a swap from flour tortillas) are explicitly mentioned in reviews as a feasible GF option when prepared carefully.
- Gluten-free desserts were reportedly available in at least one recent experience.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
- There is no dedicated GF fryer, so cross-contact risk with fried items (chips, shells) exists.
- Some reviewers report receiving incorrect or incomplete GF safety information; others note helpful staff and proper glove changes when requested.
- Overall, cross-contamination risk remains a key concern, and dining safely may require proactive questions and clear communication with the kitchen.
