The staff was super helpful and gave me the gluten free menu. Although it stinks that the chips aren't, I had the fajitas with corn tortillas and no itching after or nausea!

I looked up the menu before going on my phone then used it to compare to regular menu to make my selection. I had tacos. Very good. As it says, do not eat the chips.

I just finished my lunch today for dinner and was still disappointed! We went there due to my parents intolerance for gluten. All they found was a regular menu with special menu items lIsted as not gluten free . You know taco salad without the shell! OLA! BTW Even my meal was not good. Steak in my meal was full of fat. Vey disappointed!

I did not end up eating here because the person I spoke with when I called said that most of their meat is either cooked or reheated on the same flat top that is used to make their quesadillas and he had at some point seen people cook gluten in their dedicated gf fryers. He said they could definitely accommodate if I let them know it was severe, but it didn’t seem like a place I would trust not to contaminate.

Had fajitas. They were very good and the had a dedicated menu for celiac. Wait staff was knowledgeable. We brought our own chips for the salsa, which is pretty standard everywhere these days as the frier is shared.

I ate the chips with no reaction and they had many options on the gluten-free menu but I did see that they had a combo on the normal menu. I got the pick 2 flautas with double rice. The chicken tortilla soup is also good without the tortillas.
