What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Tortilla chips fried in a dedicated gluten-free fryer (explicitly supported by some diners' experiences).
- Corn tortillas used in place of flour tortillas for various dishes (explicitly supported; diners have asked for corn tortillas and staff have indicated they can be used for fajitas/other items).
- Dishes prepared with corn tortillas (e.g., fajitas or enchiladas) when requested, as a gluten-free adaptation.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact risk exists.
- Some evidence from recent feedback suggests sauces or salsas may not be gluten-free according to staff, which could limit safe options.
- Even with corn tortillas and dedicated fryers mentioned in past reports, other reviews raise concerns about fryers and oil being shared with gluten-containing items.
- Staff knowledge can vary by visit; some guests report highly knowledgeable staff, while others report confusion or insufficient information.
