Lupe Tortilla Mexican Restaurant

The sandbox is their best attribute. This is not the Lupe Tortilla I remember going to. Outside seating is first come first serve. We ask about gluten free options. I understand that they can’t guarantee 100% GF, but at least other places usually mention they can try their best. Not the senior employees of this place. Then we ask about possible substitution: their answer is they don’t have any substitutions. We can choose to go with avocado, but this will be extra charge. What? We’re talking about feeding a 3 year old kid here, not a full table of adults! Made well clear that being cautious for a few bites of food is not their problem. All the time our main waiter was not very friendly, it always felt like he was the boss and we were bothering him by ordering food. Then I take my kid to the restroom and it’s my kid who notices the old style playmate posters on the wall. “Look Daddy the lady doesn’t have clothes on her!” It’s a family-oriented restaurant, there are things that should get more attention.

Love love love this place! They take our son's gluten free-ness very seriously and their corn tortillas are like nothing we have tasted before. Sooo good. And the staff is always so attentive and nice. The Carne asada can't be beat either. "Es reeeeelly good" as they would say :)
