The prices in the menu are NOT what they charge on the final bill. Confirm before you sign your check! We came because safe place for Celiacs to eat, food and margaritas are decent. However, the prices in the menu DO NOT reflect what was on our bill. We caught the $8 overage on the pitcher of margaritas (because we discussed the cost to split it prior). Our server fixed that when we pointed it out. Afterwards, discovered two of our three entrees were also over charged by $2 & $5, which was not fixed by our server when we asked her to adjust the margaritas. As a former server, this seems like a scam by the restaurant and not intentional from our server. If you do eat here, keep a menu on the table and check your bill against it for EVERY ITEM! We would have paid an additional $15, had we not done this!

If you have celiac or a gluten intolerance, you can trust this place. The menu is marked and several things can be made gluten free with some substitutions. The waitress was knowledgeable and even asked about celiac specifically, and marked on the order as celiac to be extra careful. I had street corn and shredded beef tacos that were to die for, and I had no reaction after. I can't say enough good things about this place. They have a very good selection of GF options too. Salads, tacos, enchiladas, tostadas, tamales and more.
