What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Citrus slaw fish tacos (gluten-free when prepared appropriately)
- White rice
- Cauliflower rice
- Black beans
- Citrus slaw (as a standalone side)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The kitchen is not dedicated gluten-free; there is a documented cross-contamination risk due to shared fryer oil and common cooking surfaces.
- Chips, french fries, and taquitos are fried in the same oil as items containing gluten, increasing cross-contact risk.
- Some diners report successful avoidance of gluten with careful handling (e.g., grills cleaned, foil used), while others note cross-contact can still occur. Recent experiences show staff education and careful handling, but variability remains.
