They don’t guarantee anything as “gluten free”. I had the corn tortilla beef tacos, and they weren’t great. Also they have baked chips that also weren’t great. The sides were good though. There are options here, but there are better safer Mexican places in town.

Abuelos had a small but nice gluten free menu. They even brought me out baked chips for the chips and salsa. I had the soft corn tacos but the tamales dish sounded delicious too!

Had a great experience here. Good margarita, loved the salsa selections and so excited that they bring gluten free chips on request! The chips weren't great, really, but who cares - they're just a platform for salsa. Entrees were good but I would stick with their nicer dinner specialities; don't think I'd come here for a basic enchilada or burrito plate. Great service and cute atmosphere, too.

Abuelo's offers gluten-free chips if asked for and their vegetarian fajitas were delicious.

They do have a gluten-free menu with tacos, fajitas, tamales, salad, and dessert. They’ll make you fresh, gluten-free chips that are baked, not fried, for safety. My husband and I both ordered fajitas (mine GF and his not) and they sent the tortillas in the same container. Mine were corn tortillas wrapped up and his were flour tortillas underneath. We just carefully got mine out without touching anything else but next time I’ll specifically ask for them to be separate. I wouldn’t have thought they’d put them together.

Very few GF options. They made me some GF chips but they didn’t arrive until just before our meal. They do not have ala-cart menu options. I ordered the ground beef enchilada and they brought me steak. The guacamole was excellent..it was the only redeeming experience. Service was extremely slow and inattentive.

Very little gluten free options, which is extremely disappointing considering its a Mexican restaurant. Additionally after already asking about gluten I was served chips that weren't gluten free.

There is a separate gluten sensitive corner on the menu with enough choices. And I couldn’t choose and the chef made a surprise dinner for me. Super tasteful and super nice. 10/10. Can I move this restaurant to the Netherlands? ;-)
