Hacienda

My previous review years ago said good things. They have changed their menu a lot in the past 5 years, and I’m not impressed. No longer have a full gluten free menu, they basically don’t make accommodations, they just list what has gluten or traces of gluten. In fact, that is what I like the least - none of their beef is gluten free. Not carne asada, not birria, not ground beef, not fajita steak…nothing. So you can get chicken or shrimp. And they are tasty, but limited options. Also, their butter sauce contains gluten, and many of their sauces/quesos.

So, it’s fine, but no longer rated as one of the best. I’m glad they list what it safe. But I’m disappointed that they can’t just make normal (already non-breaded) foods without adding gluten to it all!

Generally very good with gluten free options and accommodations. I get the mountain mex bowl with a side of corn tortillas.

They've always been great at making sure to note my order is for a gluten allergy so the chef takes extra steps to avoid cross contamination. Comes out before the gluten meals ordered by other people at the table.

Over priced small Portioned fajitas with lettuce wraps- not impressed.

Great food and gf menu. Our waitress has celiac so she was really helpful and so sweet!

Delicious portobello fajitas. And a dedicated fryer for the tortilla chips! Hurray! I have eaten here many times with no reaction.

Seriously the best Mexican food I have ever had. And they have a gluten free brownie.

Chips are in a separate fryer so gf. They no longer have a gluten free menu or information about gf on the menu. The server was pretty knowledgeable and happy to go back n forth to the kitchen to ask. However, it took a lot of back and forth and there was still almost an issue. I ordered the bacon wrapped shrimp the last two times. Server said grill was just for seafood so it was safe (all beef products not gf due to soy sauce in marinade). Both times they brought a butter dipping sauce but then realized it had gluten before I ate it. First time server realized after food was dropped off. This time one server said it was safe but when I double checked with runner who brought food he went to kitchen and said no it has gluten. My celiac daughter had enchiladas. Only two of the sauce options (red and queso) are gluten free. Neither of us were sick afterwards but all the back n forth with server and kitchen was not very relaxing.

Staff were very knowledgeable and had good options for gf folks. We got the nachos on corn tortillas and the carne asada tacos on corn tortillas. Great experience and would definitely be back, the flavors were delicious.

Had a wonderful experience! Carlos and Kiera went above and beyond making sure my food was safe.

Waiter was very knowledgeable. I thought I could have any of the fajitas if I got corn tortillas. Absolutely not - the waiter said the only thing that was safe were the chicken fajitas (which were very good). Not a lot of choices for us there but food was decent.

Definitely recommend, though I'm not sure if the experience is server related. No GF menu and not marked on the menu but our server knew what was and was not GF in every category of item. Service was excellent from the moment we walked in the door. Food was good and reasonably priced. Will go again when I'm in town.
