🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Chips and salsa (explicitly mentioned as gluten-free in several accounts)
  • Tacos made with corn tortillas
  • Quesadillas made with corn tortillas (when requested)
  • Pollo enchiladas and other enchilada dishes
  • Burritos in a bowl (GF preparation path)
  • Platters that can be made gluten-free

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The business is not labeled as a dedicated gluten-free facility, which implies a potential cross-contamination risk. This is a known consideration for celiac safety.
  • Some diners report that cross-contamination is not an issue, and staff are responsive to allergies, but explicit formal cross-contamination precautions are not described in detail.
  • Given the lack of a dedicated GF facility, this remains an important area to confirm directly with staff before ordering, especially for highly sensitive individuals.
