- Gluten-free tacos (examples mentioned in menu labeling):
- El Rey classic gluten-free fish tacos (Baja-style; GF)

- Items labeled with GF on the menu are explicitly identified as gluten-free in the dish descriptions.
- A reviewer highlighted that gluten-free and dairy-free options exist and that staff were knowledgeable about celiac needs.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which introduces cross-contamination risk.
- Some evidence points to separate fryers for certain fried items, but this is based on individual reviews and cannot be assumed for all menu items.
- The restaurant’s own data marks it as not dedicated for gluten-free production, reinforcing the need for careful selection and direct inquiry about preparation practices.
