🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • All foods on the menu are gluten-free (reported by numerous diners and the restaurant’s GF-focused identity).
  • Churros (gluten-free)
  • Fish tacos (gluten-free)
  • Carne asada tacos (gluten-free)
  • Fried chicken bites (gluten-free)
  • Tortilla chips (gluten-free)

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Beer: The most common gluten exposure risk is beer, which is not GF and may be served in ways that cross-contaminate. Some reviews note that beer is the only GF item on certain menus, with other items being GF.
  • Occasional inconsistencies: There is at least one recent report of a near gluten exposure due to miscommunication about whether a beverage was GF. This highlights the need for clear, confirmed communication with staff about gluten in drinks.
  • Overall: While the kitchen appears dedicated to GF, the beverage side remains a potential risk area for sensitive celiac diners.
