Review of Mojito

If you have celiac disease beware - The the “GF” notes on their menu are not accurate. You need to ask questions. Hopefully you get the same excellent waitress that I did.

When I asked the waitress about their “gluten free” tostones, she said “Oh, the fryer is not completely gluten free, so they’re only okay for people who are a little sensitive to gluten.” That made no sense at all. That’s seriously like saying they’re peanut free even though they’re fried in peanut oil. It’s inaccurate and dangerous, because some people trust menus and will order them without asking and get very, very sick.

Luckily I had an excellent waitress who cared enough to work with the chef to make something safe for me. This is a major rarity in restaurants and I really appreciate it. But having to rely on lucking out and getting a good waitress in order to eat safely is really stressful. This would be a five star review if they didn’t have dangerously inaccurate ideas about what gluten free means. Their food is incredibly delicious. Just ask lots of questions and steer away from the fryer.
