Torchy's Tacos

Menu posted over ordering area is not marked GF but website has a complete GF menu that we used to pick out our order. Watch out when ordering off the overhead board since some tacos are made with corn tortillas and some with flour. Not the best spot for sensitive celiacs, but plenty of options for those who are avoiding gluten but not as sensitive. Tacos were good with some interesting ingredients, service was quick, and atmosphere was casual and friendly.

Owner and staff not at all knowledgeable about gluten free. Gave us a “list of ingredients”. Made it known they were irritated we asked questions. Kid did like the corn tortilla cheese quesadilla - hoping she doesn’t get sick. Other than the smallest quesadilla I’ve ever seen, not sure there would have been anything else she could have had. She left hungry.

Delicious tacos! Eaten here several times with other celiacs and no one’s gotten sick. They have a separate “gluten conscious” menu.

We attended the soft opening (it officially opens in just a few days on May 15, 2024). They confirmed they have a dedicated gluten free fryer for the chips. We've had luck at other locations with their gluten sensitive menu (avoiding chips at locations that don't have a dedicated fryer) and this one was just the same. They did mention that the potatoes recently changed to hashbrown style and those are not fried in the dedicated fryer, so just be aware of that potential if they don't switch back to diced potatoes.

The app has a lot more diet and allergen information and clear options than ordering in person. Even if you're eating there, you could review it ahead or grab a table and order on your phone, especially if you're avoiding dairy and soy. Those are much harder to identify on the in-store menu.

I got the airstream salad and it was good. There is a risk of cross contamination since it’s a shared kitchen but I didn’t get sick.

Great tacos and guac.! Pork taco on corn tortillas. Delicious! I made a huge mistake and ate the chips without thinking, ( Fried in same oil). But they change out the oil nightly and since we went early for lunch I did not get sick. Yay!!!
