Torchy's Tacos

I had a green chili pork taco and a democrat taco. Both were tasty. The green chili pork is my favorite now! The staff was knowledgeable about the menu. (I have celiac.) Definitely 5 stars!

I had the green chile pork tacos and they weren’t bad. The menu isn’t labeled but I confirmed with the girl taking my order and she was confident in her response. Haven’t gotten sick, so I assume the proper precautions were taken.

Staff was helpful, and they had a dedicated gluten free menu. They did tell me the chips are fried in the same fryer as gluten items, so I avoided those. Because of no dedicated gluten free fryer, I give 4 stars. Otherwise 5! Lots of taco options.

I’ve had good experiences at this Torchy’s. I get the green chili pork tacos on corn tortillas, and they are one of the items that are gluten free without any changes.

This was my first time eating at Torchy’s Tacos, and I was not disappointed. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. While the girl at the front counter did not know much about gluten-free options, they had an allergen list behind the counter. The manager/head cook was very knowledgeable about celiac and personally made my meal (salad with chicken) and brought it out to me himself. I will definitely by trying more items on the Torchy’s menu.

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!!!

This is my go-to chain restaurant if I need to pick up fast food. The kids love the tacos, and we have yet to have any cross-contamination issues in the four years since my son’s diagnosis. Not one accidental gluten incident. Corn tortillas don’t fall apart after the first bite like most corn tortillas which is key for my son. Great option to have in our area.

Summary - Yummy but had issues ordering from the gluten conscious menu and chips are in shared fryer.

Story - When I asked the server about gluten they immediately brought over the manager. Manager was great! They brought me the “gluten conscious” menu, explained that the chips are fried separately but the oil from both fryers are combined (so not GF but listed on the menu). I ordered the baja shrimp taco and the brisket taco on corn tortillas, mentioning the gluten allergy/menu to the server.

When the food came out, the shrimp was breaded and fried (so not GF), so we sent back with the server to redo. Then we realized that my partner’s burrito had vegan meat instead of the beef he ordered (burritos are not GF). He mentioned to manager who happened to walk by. Manager went back to kitchen and didn’t come back out until our food was out and correct. Everything was really good, including the mexican rice and street corn sides.

We tried to pay but the manager comped our meal. Very nice!

There is a bar and specialty cocktails but we didn’t try any.
