⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Not all sources clearly identify the facility as dedicated gluten-free; there is some conflicting evidence in the broader discussion.
  • Fried items may pose cross-contact risk; some notes indicate fried items are not safe for strict gluten avoidance, while other fry-oil practices vary by item.
  • Beer is not gluten-free; certain broths or fats (e.g., in rice or refried beans) could introduce gluten or other allergens if you’re avoiding them.
  • The burrito format is a structural barrier to GF due to tortilla size.
  • The salsa bar and fresh toppings are convenient, but cross-contact risk depends on preparation and shared equipment.
