Celiac safety profile
Pico Taqueria
Mexican Restaurant
6560 Maddox Blvd, Chincoteague, VA 23336
What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Taco bowls (explicitly mentioned as a safer option by multiple guests).
- Rice bowls and salads (labeled as celiac-safe in at least one report).
- If selecting any tacos, be mindful that tortillas may be pressed on the same equipment as wheat tortillas, and fried items may involve shared fryers. Some guests report successful experiences when avoiding fried components and when staff clearly marks the order for celiac needs.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- No dedicated gluten-free fryer is reported; some fried components may be cross-contaminated.
- Tortillas (corn and flour) are pressed on the same press as part of the same process, introducing cross-contact risk if both types are used in a given order.
- Chips and certain toppings may be prepared in shared equipment (e.g., shared fryers for chips).
- Staff are often knowledgeable and willing to guide choices and mark orders as celiac, which helps mitigate risk, but cross-contact remains a valid concern.
