Top 50 Gluten-Free Mexican Spots to Enjoy in Louisiana

Anthony Slaughter

The food was awesome! And Henry is the man! His recommendations were the selections that I went with and he took care of me with regard to my gluten allergy. I went with the red fish and it was so good. It was the perfect end to my 60th birthday celebration in the Big Easy.

You’d likely never know this adorable, plant-filled space on a block bearing a street name no one knows (that feels more like an alley) could be the best thing to happen to your week. Located directly across from one of the two U.S. Court of Appeals loading docks, this oasis quickly transports the diner to a country they may have never visited and may now want to visit immediately. This isn’t that “Mexican” place you have in your hometown that mostly serves to pacify the American palate. That isn’t to say it will feel unfamiliar or awkward; you may just realize excessive grease and cheese aren’t required for enjoyment of every item. With the exception of tortas (sandwiches) and a couple of desserts, everything is gluten-free. Not just in the “no-gluten-containing-ingredients” way you may find many places, but instead it’s an environment where staff are trained on cross-contamination (and where they have a dedicated frier). There are also numerous vegetarian and vegan options. Happy hour is 3-6 weekdays, and you’ll definitely leave happier. Then again, that’s kinda guaranteed anytime you visit. Do yourself a flavor 😉 and walk right on over from the streetcar or even the French Quarter. Should you take the ferry over here from Algiers? Well, I sure won’t discourage it! Come hungry, thirsty, and ready for your life (or at least taste buds) to be improved.

Victoria recommends the steak tacos to her fellow gluten free eaters.

Definitely will be back to try some of the other entrees on the menu. The pork tamale was so tender, the birria and cheese enchiladas were perfection. Hubby recommends the Mexican Stir-fry with the protein trio of chicken, shrimp, and steak. I did steal a shrimp to check for myself. The grill on it made the flavor pop. They can cater to just about any restrictions too. They have keto, vegetarian, and gluten free menus. When you go, ask for Dallas. He delivers top notch service!

Tomolly's was the first restaurant I went to when we first moved here 7 years ago, and I have been going every since. I love the fact they have a gluten-free menu that is 100% and not just gluten-friendly like some places since I am allergic to gluten, and they even come out with my food separate from the others. They are by far my favorite Thank you 😊

Oh man, I had a great solo meal today at BJ's. Gluten-free pizza! Phoebe and Brooke are the best 2 waiters/Servers/Bartenders evah. Eating out is challenging for me, but these two made it so easy. I feel geat! No cramps, no pain at all. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thanks Phorbe and Brooke', y'all rock! See ya soon!:)

This is a 100% dedicated gluten free restaurant with arguably the best food, whether you are eating gluten free or not. Their menu clearly states everything used is gluten free, which if you have Celiac, you know the appreciation for that alone. If you’re in the area, take the time to make a stop here…you won’t regret it! It is a sit down, nicer restaurant so take that into account. Ordering to-go might be an option if you are looking to get back on the road when traveling through. They also sell jars of their green and red salsa…worth buying to take along!

Vegetarians rejoice! This taco joint goes above and beyond to have something for everyone. Their menu is Eat Fit certified by a large hospital chain as being healthy (on the selected Eat Fit items). Almost Everything on their menu can be made veggie or vegan, just look for the symbols on the menu. The veggie tacos with grilled corn, avocado, cilantro, jalapeno, grilled bell pepper, onion, rice nd lard-free black beans (with or without jack cheese) served on gluten free corn tortillas are a veggie dream. They'll add or delete whatever you want on these tacos which is what I've grown to love!

The food was very tasty with good sized portions -- I had the cheese enchiladas and my partner had the street tacos in jerk chicken and adobo. The jerk chicken was incredible. The music was super loud, which I wasn't a fan of, and the servers were laid back, which I don't mind but some people don't like. There were a lot of drink specials and an abundance of vegetarian options on the menu, and eating gluten free was very easy. We'll definitely be back.

Always hesitant to try new places, but this one did not disappoint. Fantastic tacos with unbelievable flavors. Staff was friendly, even made sure to accommodate for my wife’s celiacs… TRY THE SHRIMP, KOREAN BEEF, and PASTOR!!!

Food was great!! Cory helped us and he made sure i was gluten safe. Im celiac and had a trio of enchiladas (cheese, chicken, and beef). The chicken was amazing! It was well seasoned and moist. My husband (not celiac) had the shrimp and crawfish chimichanga. He said it was one of the best ones he's had. We're from Texas, so Mexican food has a place in my heart. Azteca's brings it! Great atmosphere, too!!

The gem of Lafayette. Smoked proteins cooked to perfection EVERYTIME! So good you would swear it isn’t healthy but it is. Authentic flavors with quality ingredients, there is really no place like it. Do yourself a favor and get a marg too 😉 oh and did I mention almost all options are gluten free. I’ve eaten here many times and have never reacted. 11/10

Just had a wonderful lunch. Chicken and mushroom tacos are delicious. It is very accommodating for gluten-free, and my yellow Labrador enjoyed a few dog biscuits from our waiter:)))
