What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Rice
- Enchiladas
- Black beans
- Gluten-free tortilla chips
- GF chips are frequently provided via a dedicated fryer, and several reviews call out separate fryers or baskets for GF items.
- If you’re unsure about sauces, ask to confirm that they are flour-free and prepared separately to avoid gluten cross-contact.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Older reports mention cross-contamination risk, but the most recent feedback emphasizes dedicated facilities or fryers for GF items and strong staff knowledge.
- As with many Mexican concepts, there’s always a residual risk if sauces or marinades are thickened with flour or prepared on shared surfaces. Proactively asking about ingredients, fryer usage, and sauce preparation remains important.
- If you’re highly sensitive, consider calling ahead to review current practices and, when dining, reinforce your needs explicitly with the staff.
