What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Corn chips (explicitly noted as safe in the context of being fried separately from other gluten-containing items)
- Cheese dip
- Tacos (implied GF when made with non-flour tortillas)
- Nachos (GF when prepared with GF components)
- Bowls (customizable with GF ingredients; noted as a safe way to avoid gluten-containing tortillas)
- General GF-friendly toppings and ingredients listed in reviews (e.g., various salsas, toppings, and fillings)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which inherently carries cross-contamination risk.
- Flour tortillas are identified as a gluten-containing item; their presence means care is needed to avoid cross-contact in dishes that might include tortilla components.
- Fryer/Oil cross-contamination concerns have been specifically mentioned in some notes about flour tortilla oil usage transitioning to cross-contamination in certain formats (e.g., salad bowls with fried flour tortillas). Some reviews report that chips are fried separately from other gluten-containing items, but this can vary by preparation style.
- Staff willingness to change gloves when asked is a positive practice observed in recent experiences, but this is not a guaranteed standard across all visits or locations.
