Daughter has celiac disease normally Chipotle is a very safe place for her to eat. However this one had all their ingredients mixed and they were unwilling to grab safe ingredients from the back. Normally this isn’t a problem at Chipotle.
I had the trophy wife out for a shopping spree downtown and we needed to refresh the engines with some gluten free fuel. We had heard about Fiesta and decided to grab lunch there. We were greeted warmly by Sam and seated quickly. Sam did a great job explaining the menu for us and filling us in on how all the food is handmade and same for their sauces.
I got the fish bowl with yum sauce on the side. My wife got the steak bowl with mango curry lime sauce on top. The bowls have generous portions and we brought home leftovers!
Try the orange mojito too!
Celebrate special moments here while enjoying unique soda flavors and a variety of fresh, award-winning dishes in a vibrant atmosphere.

Amazing food and service! My family and I celebrated my mom’s 72nd birthday here with a group of 10: 3 kids and 7 adults.
To start, their soda fountain has flavored sparkling water, unique soda flavors, and the usuals, but is made with cane sugar in place of HF corn syrup.
The food is prepared fresh and served hot. Sooooo good also. Most of us had one of their award winning burger options, but they offer a good variety of food options. My wife who is, no dairy and gluten free diet, was able to eat a steak skewer with sides. The service was quick and friendly for a large group. I highly recommend Island IX for any occasion.
If you're are looking for a new spot to eat - Island IX is your place!
