What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free corn tortillas: explicitly mentioned as an option that can be used to make dishes GF (e.g., fajitas with GF tortillas; some occasions where flour is swapped for corn tortillas). This indicates at least some dishes can be prepared GF when using corn tortillas.
- Note: There is no consistently confirmed list of entirely gluten-free dishes, and chips and some sauces may be prepared in ways that are not clearly gluten-free in all visits. Plan to ask about fryers and cross-contact practices for each item.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility. The official designation is not gluten-free; cross-contact risk exists if gluten is handled in the same areas or with shared equipment.
- Fryer usage is inconsistent in reports: some diners say chips are fried in a dedicated fryer (gluten-free), while others report no dedicated fryer and potential gluten exposure.
- Some staff are described as knowledgeable and communicative about gluten issues, and there are anecdotes about cooks or servers confirming and accommodating gluten-free requests; other accounts note variability in staff knowledge.
- A few diners have had positive outcomes, while a minority report symptoms that could be related to cross-contact, underscoring that risk remains if precautions aren’t explicitly followed during each visit.
