Review
I asked the front manager if I could get stuff from the back and she was passive aggressive the whole time about serving me. Eventually I told her I was okay not to get anything and she was verbally relieved. It was very upsetting and overwhelming going there. It made me feel like a huge inconvenience.

I always ask that they make my food in the back to avoid cross contamination and they gladly oblige. I have Celiac disease and am very sensitive to cc and I have never had an issue at this location!

They changed gloves and I had no reaction! The food is tasty and they are super nice here! They also have very generous portions. The chips are celiac-safe as well! As far as I know, everything other than the tortillas are GF.

Notes
Chipotle does not have a gluten free menu but instead has a list of gluten-containing ingredients to avoid. Cross-contamination is a concern, however, so let the person taking your order know that you are gluten free and if you need them to take the proper precautions.
From their website: "If you avoid gluten, don't eat our flour tortillas. If you are highly sensitive to gluten and would like us to change our gloves, just let us know at the start of your order. You should be aware items containing corn, including corn tortillas (chips, soft corn, and crispy corn tortillas) and corn salsa, may have a small amount of gluten from potentially co-mingling with gluten-containing grains in the field."

Amazing! Everything on the menu is GF with the exception of their flour tortillas. You can check out their allergen list at chipotle.com > allergens. My bowl was incredible!

I came at a busy time but ended up not getting sick. The rice was insanely salty though, I had a hard time finishing my meal. I actually felt the crunch of salt. It seemed like someone spilled salt into it.

Writing this in hopes to help newbies navigate their disease. Changing gloves doesn’t help you here. Multiple times the utensils will touch the flour wraps and go back into the items. High risk for cross contamination. Just because someone says they did not get sick doesn’t mean it is not harming them in other ways. Not safe for Celiacs.
