What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Crudites with guacamole (explicitly noted as a safe alternative to chips in several experiences)
- Flan (explicitly described as gluten-free in at least one report)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility; cross-contact risk remains a central concern.
- Chips are fried in a shared fryer, which many reviewers flag as unsafe for strict celiacs; some diners bring their own chips or request veggies instead.
- Staff can and do take precautions (gloves changes, clean cookware, and note gluten-free status), but these practices may vary by location, busyness, and specific dish.
- A GF menu exists, and staff are often praised for knowledge, but consistency in guaranteeing safety for every item is not guaranteed.
