I adore this cute little cafe. All the food is delicious AND healthy. My belly always feels great after eating here. Basically everything can be made gluten free, which makes it hard to choose! The breakfast burrito bowl has been my favorite thing that I've ordered. I also love the superfood lattes!
Excellent gluten free menu and they provide gf chips! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. If you aren't a fan of pork green chili, substitute the tomatilla sauce on your burrito.
The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I went two days in a row because it was so good and celiac safe. Everything tasted fresh. Can’t beat fresh squeezed juices for cocktails. We need one in Minneapolis, MN.
¡Increíble! The nopales asada street tacos are my favorite and the owners are so wonderful and accommodating. I have a gluten and dairy allergy and there are so many options! Nueva favorita restaurante <3
Even though the service was just OK and a bit slow, the food was amazing!
Ceviche had tons of lime and just enough spice level. I wish it came with avocado.
The chilaquiles were crunchy (as they should) and the eggs runny but well cooked on the outside.
The tacos de carnitas were good too, the meat was tender and tasted great.
All three plates gluten free!
Price is also fair.
Kudos to the chef!
Went to the grab-n-go side for a gluten-free burrito bowl and Tostitos salsa verde chips. It was super flavorful and filling. Perfect quick bite between flights.
UPDATE YOUR MENU TO ACCURATELY REFLECT ALLERGENS
If an item is marked GF on your menu (not GFO) it should not contain gluten. I inquired about the flavor of the mole enchiladas marked as gf on the menu. The cashier graciously offered to taste the sauce which was much appreciated. When I went to order it, I confirmed it was gf. Cashier told me the mole sauce I just tasted was recently changed to contain gluten. I’m pretty ticked off the menu was not updated. This is not the cashier's fault, but management should take this more seriously. Very frustrating and not the first time I've had a gluten issue here. On 2 prior occasions I ordered gf corn tortillas with the huevos and was given flour. Laxness around allergens has steered me away from future visits.
The other reviews are right about the gluten free bread, it's excellent and we all know that's hard to find. The food is very good overall, the chef knows what they're doing. It's a bit overpriced though, considering my breakfast sandwich had very little bacon and my turkey sandwich seemed like it should have come with some kind of side given the price. Everyone there was very nice and I liked it enough to go back for lunch.
I asked the server which tacos were gluten free. He said the only thing he knew that was GF was the tortilla. I asked if he could ask the chef which ones might work for me and he just ignored me and went to the other people at the table. Cant judge the food since he completely brushed me aside and I couldn't order. My friends liked their food, although no one really knew which tacos were which though as the server just threw the plates on the table and walked away with no explanation.. Guess I will stick to places that actually know what they are serving.
This used to be one of my favorite spots to go because of their tasty and safe gluten free food. I have celiac disease and it is really hard to find places I can trust. I was willing to try out the new concept. However, it was disappointing to find out I couldn't have the chips or the beans, as they weren't gluten free. There was also absolutely no indication on the menu what items were gluten free. I was hoping for better.

I really enjoyed the tacos and the sopes! Food tasted great and it felt like a traditional homemade meal. Good spot if you are looking for tasty and casual mexican food in Denver. Lots of gluten free options!
Everything was delicious! Lots of well-marked gluten-free menu items. The service was great and the atmosphere is really beautiful and sophisticated, but cozy at the same time! A new favorite!
Organic food, gluten free options for dessert and a full bar make this place a great choice for dinner. But... there is also the Jungle Room with an open mic, poetry readings, and karaoke. Upstairs is a venue for live music and dancing (including big name bands when they were new like Screaming Trees).
You won't find high fructose corn syrup here!
We used Illegal Pete's catering for our wedding and that was the BEST decision ever. Jesse was extremely helpful in making sure we had everything and more for our special day. Aside from ourselves, we heard nothing but "THIS IS AWESOME" or "SO DELICIOUS" from our guests. The buffet style allowed everyone to get what they wanted and had options for gluten free, vegetarian, and vegans.
Beautiful, cozy, welcoming spot! The chilaquiles was 🤌 especially with the red sauce. Very friendly, attentive service. Can’t wait to come back! Pozole looks great, plenty of vegan and gluten free options.
Our family loved this place! The service was great, the margaritas were excellent, and the food was delicious. A member of our group has a gluten allergy and they had great gluten-free options and offered for his food to be prepared without contact with surfaces and fryers that may have cross-contamination. Highly recommend!
Gluten free options, friendly service, delicious food! Had their breakfast bowl with steak and aioli and it was so tasty! Definitely a top pick for the DEN food court 😀 I'll look for this restaurant the next time I'm connecting thru!
One of the best Taco places I have ever been. My absolute favorites are the fish, shrimp and the vegeterian one with Mushrooms. A lot of gluten-free and vegan options. Highly recommended!
Super fun place. The staff here was so so nice. I have celiac and they made me feel super comfortable and did not make me feel like I was inconveniencing them at all. All very yummy. We will be back!
Believe the shift leader or Asst manager helped me to take the precautions so my bowl was gluten-free. She delivered great service and the food was great as expected.
I love El Camino. I have celiac and am always looking for yummy gluten free Mexican restaurants. Their enchiladas are the best and made with corn tortillas.
I also get the chips and salsa and don't have a reaction. I don't know their level of safety but am fairly sensitive and do not react. I do mention celiac/gluten sensitivity in my order.

I would highly recommend MNF Lohi. Our waitress Kris promptly greeted us and was proactive in asking about dietary restrictions if any. Service was great! Food tasted delicious! Chef Shay does an excellent job. Hibiscus margarita was so refreshing. I ordered carne asada fajitas and they were so yummy. My wife ordered the Goddess bowl and she loved it! The manager Tyler checked in on us to see if we needed anything; which I felt was phenomenal service. Kris checked back periodically to see if we needed anything and refreshed drinks often. The atmosphere mixed with extraordinary service has us wanting to come back to try other menu featured items. I saw a table next to us who ordered nachos and they were stacked so high. Definitely going to give those a try next time. There are not many places that are able to accommodate gluten free/ vegetarian. MNF has plenty of variety. I would highly recommend this place! Thank me later. 🥙🌮🍽️🍹🍷
This Torchy’s location demonstrates exceptional expertise in handling gluten allergies, setting a standard not always found across all locations. I had an enlightening conversation with Nick, who shared that all managers hold ServSafe certifications. Whenever an allergy is mentioned, the team meticulously prepares food using fresh surfaces and utensils. With the owner’s family personally affected by allergies, they deeply understand the importance of strict safety measures. Even the chips are fried in a dedicated fryer, ensuring a truly gluten-conscious experience.

I found my new favorite Mexican restaurant!! I love the gluten free options that are delicious and unique! The margaritas were awesome too and such a friendly wait staff. We were seated immediately and enjoyed the community table too.
The good here is very good and authentic style Mexican food. Good sized portions.
I was especially impressed by their attention to my family's food allergy needs. We have a lot of allergies and they were attentive checking on different things and never left us feeling like we were a burden. They cleaned the grill area, used fresh utensils, and changed gloves before prep of allergen free food.
We were all able to find foods for all of us. Our allergies included: gluten, dairy, nuts, citrus fruits, tomatoes, mushrooms, and soy.
Ask for Charlotte for your server she was amazing.
