Beautiful place tastefully decked out with authentic Mexican art and design. Brought and airy. Cozy neighborhood restaurant. Great service, great food and gluten -free by default. They also have a vegan menu
Came here for the first time a few days ago, and the service and food was so good that we came back today. We came in around 11am and were immediately asked if we wanted to see gluten free, vegan, or brunch menus. They sat us down and our server, Kellen, brought everyone water without us having to ask for it. He was so friendly and took our order (party of 4) without writing anything down so i was a bit skeptical. We each had multiple very specific modifications with our food, so I didn’t think he would remember them, but he got every single detail right. Was funny, friendly and warm, and got us boxes and the bill at an appropriate time, and refilled drinks as soon as he saw they were slightly low.

Great little restaurant. Great food. Had a chicken taco and a chorizo taco in corn tortilla. Both excellent. Chips were great. I wasn't a fan of the salsa buy my family gobbled it doen.easy to pay with a QR code. Fun surfing vibe. Enjoyed watching surfing on the TVs. So far so good with the gluten free for my Celiac.
Amazing. Must go. Gluten-free friendly, fresh tortillas made in house with imported Mexican corn. Flights of Mezcal. Excellent tacos. Astounding tamales. Just get there!
Love the environment. Gluten free menu options, excellent margaritas and knowledgeable staff (in regards to gluten free options). Only downfall is the prices of the drinks...I would have drank more had they been more affordable. Definitely would return though.
Papi’s is so great! They have dairy free and gluten free options and you get free chips and salsa for the table. Their short rib burrito is awesome and they have a nice happy hour too.
The food was good, a good selection of gluten free options and the kids ate everything on their plates. The employees were friendly and were offered suggestions when we asked.
We've been here a few times and it's been great. In the past, we've had Juan and he was wonderful. This time our server was Alex and he was terrific, too. Our daughter has Celiac disease and they were knowledgeable and careful about it. Additionally, a lot of their menu is naturally gluten free.
Love this place! So many gluten free options for a gluten free girl like me. The service was great, food came out very quickly, and was very tasty! Will be back for sure.
Pretty good Mexican food ( for take out) but you can find several of the same quality places around this area so it did not stand out IMO. Smoked cheese dip was pretty good but not sure if it was gluten free. Chips were not hot or fresh. $11 for one taco and chips/queso dip.
I tried their birria quesadillas made with corn shells. The meat had great flavor. The birria broth had a touch too much cinnamon for my taste, but it was still good. They were very accommodating with my gluten allergy. The waiter was able to tell me what was gluten-free and what I should avoid. I really appreciate it when the wait staff can answer my questions regarding allergens.
It was a busy night. All the tables inside were full. The hostess opened the enclosed patio (with heaters), so I didn't have to wait, which I was totally fine with. Inside was very loud with people talking over the music and other people, so I was grateful to sit on the patio and enjoy my dinner.
California Tortilla is one of my favorite places for a #CeliacFriendly meal. They have an allergy menu and are well trained on taking precautions against cross contamination. Whenever I go, I just let them know I have an "allergy" and they notify everyone on the line to change their gloves . I have never gotten sick from eating here.
Mango mojitos we’re good if a bit stronger lime flavor then I would prefer. The margaritas were huge and tasty. Housemade guacamole was a hit with my crew. Tacos, bowls and burritos were all amazing. Definitely give this place a chance. PS lots of gluten-free options!
Pretty awful experience for someone with food allergies. The staff ignored us when we first walked up to order, as the only people in line. Then when they finally decided to take our order, I told them I am sensitive to gluten and could they please change their gloves before touching the inside of my bowl since they’d just touched a flour tortilla. Several staff members just stared at me and started talking amongst themselves and side eyeing me, then told me I could have rice and sofritas… when I already know everything is gluten free but the tortillas. I told them again that all I was asking was for the gloves to be changed so I don’t get gluten cross contamination and get sick. The first employee just stared at me and eventually changed her gloves while giving off attitude. Despite her being a part of the conversation about gluten and gloves, the second employee rolled the burrito of my brother ahead of me and then quickly grabbed my food - seeming like she intentionally grabbed it quickly so I couldn’t remind her to change her gloves, like I’d asked just a few seconds before. I’ve never dealt with such rude employees, even before I brought up my gluten sensitivity. And it sucks since there’s already very few places I can eat out at because of my issues with gluten.

Amber was outstanding! She exceeded our expectations and it was definitely worth making a stop to see her. We thoroughly enjoyed the cheeseburger tacos and appreciated the great gluten-free options available.

the staff speaks predominantly spanish and it’s such a good atmosphere and authentic food. they only have corn tortillas (soft!!) so no cross contamination
Great food, options for gluten free pescetarians. Food is great, no real fish taco options in the Bethesda area like this. Gluten free folks can ask for a corn tortilla rather than a flour tortilla. Be warned that your clothes might smell a little bit after coming out of the restaurant. Prices are a little bit on the high side but not outrageously so.
Summer time is best when eating outside.

Always consistent, great quality and flavorful food. Family member with celiac has safely eaten here, and we trust their careful attention to allergy issues.
A quiet little restaurant with great tacos. The chef is knowledgeable about his food and is Celiac so the place is Gluten Free friendly! Good prices, happy hour deals, specials each day of the week, and special events like "game night." Try the Jerk Chicken and Al Pastor!
Constantly giving me the wrong order, always rushing and pushing to get me out of the store even when the restaurant is empty which causes the miscommunications. They don't bus their tables, as far as I've seen. I love Chipotle and I eat there more than twice a week but this particular branch doesn't seem to care for quality. I will say that the cashier (whose name I can't tell you as they don't have name tags) is very polite.
As for food, it's not that great. Juices are always soaking through the bowl and leaking out through the bag. The food is neither warm nor cold. The guacamole has hard, under ripe chunks in it. They let their food cross contaminate, cheese into lettuce, lettuce into guac, etc. Don't know the difference between corn and flour soft tortillas. That may not be a big deal to a lot of people but it means that those of us who can't eat gluten, and come home to a flour tortilla instead of corn, are disappointed.
Staff is friendly.
Food is Very Good.
They have been great with accommodating for my allergies

I've done one Dine and one takeout so far.
One less taco on the take out vs the dine in.
Everytime we come in we are welcomed as if we where coming home. They had substitutes for my gluten-free allergy. The staff is friendly and the food is always delicious. I love this place.
The atmosphere was nice, the servers were great. It was a good time. My only minor complaint was ordering the lemonade and gluten free bread for my vegan burger, it was too small had to cut edges off the burger. Next time I'll just eat it how it was intended, with a bun. The lemonade was just too sweet for me. Those things can be overlooked, I would still come back again.
One of my favorite restaurants! My two favorite dishes are the vegetarian rellenos and the choripollo. Lots of good vegetarian and gluten free options.
This is my go-to mexican restaurant. Their food is always fresh and delicious. I have a gluten allergy, and they do their best to accommodate. I normally order the burrito dorados with corn shells instead of flour tortillas. I tend to go in the off hours either between lunch and dinner or after dinner rush so it's normally quiet. They also have outside seating, which is a nice option.
Finally had a chance to go last night for their Wine Dinner and it was incredible. Each course along with the wine pairings were phenomenal, and every single staff member was warm and friendly and just so helpful! I’ve been meaning to go for over a year but live pretty far away in Virginia, and I’m already starting to plan my next visit so I can order off the full menu. This was one of the greatest hospitality experiences I’ve had. Jennifer and Isabella: thank you for making us feel so welcome and taking care of our gluten-free friend! We all had so much fun!!!
The staff at this location is beyond friendly! They are very personable and make the experience Want to remember. The food is also very good, with options for dairy and gluten-free people alike. The atmosphere was very clean, The tables were wiped the food station was spotless and well kept and as I was paying, I watched somebody come out to wipe down counters. I am extremely impressed with this establishment and will be returning promptly!!
