What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Tacos (gluten-free, with a caveat): all tacos are reported as gluten-free except the fish, per at least one diner’s account.
- Other items (like beans) have been mentioned anecdotally as safe by some diners, but explicit, consistent GF labeling for non-taco items isn’t clearly stated in the collected information.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
- The kitchen is described as small and shared, with some diners noting grills may be shared. Reported precautions include staff cleaning grills and surfaces when GF is requested, but this isn’t guaranteed at every visit.
- Because cross-contact risk can vary by day and staff, there is a non-negligible chance of gluten exposure without meticulous, location-specific protocols.
