Went here and they are gluten friendly. They are not, however, dairy free friendly. So if you are like me and have trouble with gluten and dairy I do not recommend this place. The chicken, ground beef, retired beans, and guac all have dairy in them.
— No gluten-free information on the menu
This is my easy go to! I get the bowl or the nachos (pro tip: share the nachos with someone…they are MASSIVE)

Had lunch here and the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. They will walk you through what you can have safely. Chips are fried in a separate fryer. Great experience and enjoyed the food with no issues.

Great food! It’s more of a fast casual place, where you go up to order your food and they will bring it out to you. Staff is very knowledgeable as to which items and meats are not gluten free. Chips are fried in a separate fryer! I did not get sick after. Overall, a great experience and I’d highly recommend!

Manager was awesome and honest about potential of cross contamination with chips and hard shells. Recommended soft corn tortillas for beef tacos and the rice. No signs of gluten exposure following meal!

The chicken is NOT gluten free, but every other meat is. Make sure you tell them you have celiac! In Gardendale specifically- they know what it is! When I tell them, I don’t get sick. I always order the nachos with ground beef and almost everything on it. I don’t ask for anything grilled just because I want as little to touch the grill as possible!

They are very knowledgeable. You can only get a bowl if your are cross contamination sensitive. Been a 3 times and never been sick and able to change it up each time

The cashier at Taco Mama was SO knowledgeable. I guess I had looked at the GF menu of a different Taco Mama so I said I had celiac and wanted the Nachos and she immediately corrected me and said that this restaurant is the only one in the chain that has a shared fryer so the chips are not gluten free. I ordered the chicken tacos and she made sure I got the chicken NOT cooked in beer. When she put in the order she said “ok let me go tell everyone to change their gloves” without me asking her to. So sweet! I have very sensitive celiac and didn’t have an issue.
