🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Meats (in general): Reported as gluten-free by multiple diners and cited as a safe baseline when prepared with proper cross-contamination controls.
  • Nachos: A recent guest confirmed GF nachos after kitchen confirmation; chips may come from a pre-packaged source, which the guest noted.
  • Pinto beans and cheesy potatoes: Mentioned as safe gluten-free sides in a positive dining report.
  • Other meat-focused dishes can be GF by recipe, according to guest experiences, though not every item is guaranteed gluten-free due to shared prep spaces.
  • Tell the staff you have celiac disease and request fresh gloves, clean cutting boards, and a clean prep area.
  • Confirm with the kitchen about any shared equipment affecting the item you want.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination is a possibility in shared prep and cooking areas.
  • Reported practices include glove changes and cutting-board swaps when gluten-free needs are requested, but there are also past reviews noting confusion or gaps in gluten-free handling.
  • Some menu items (like bread, tortillas, or certain high-risk sides) are clearly not GF or are more prone to CC, depending on preparation and accompaniments.
  • A few guests have had positive experiences with staff being knowledgeable and cautious; others have encountered uncertainty or inconsistent enforcement.
