Top 20 Gluten-Free Mexican Havens to Explore in Wisconsin

Amazing gluten free options. Gluten free crepes are 10/10

I highly recommend visiting this place, especially if you are looking for great tasting gluten-free and vegetarian options. The vibe is excellent, with an inclusive and friendly atmosphere. The portions are big and the taste and quality of the food is great. The only disappointment I had was that I was expecting the beer to be on tap, but was instead served a can. I would rank this restaurant as good value for money.

Atmosphere was trendy and cool. Servers were nice and accommodating for dietary restrictions. We waited a very long time for food, and it was toward the end of service, so it was unclear why. Food was very good. Spamelette was really unique and flavorful. My stomach was upset for a couple hours after eating though, perhaps from the richness. But my friend was also quite sick after she ate a dish they prepared dairy free, gluten free.

Kathy Kienast

We had the fish fry which is gluten free. It was delicious.

Eddy Nelson

Celiac heaven. Dedicated fryers, knowledgeable staff. Almost all dishes can be made GF. Amazing Venezuelan food!

Joy Neilson-Loomis

We ordered a taco bar from the Bayside location for a family event with 45 people. It was a hit with all our guests. We put the final order in on a Monday, and the food was ready on time for pick up on Saturday. Staff took the time to show us how to set up the catering trays so everything stayed warm without burning. The food was on the mild side, which is what we needed for a large gathering. Have some hot sauce ready for spice loving guests. All main dishes were gluten free. Corn tortillas were packed separately from the flour tortillas. My only suggestion would be to label the salsas. We had a couple people doing tasting to figure it out. Overall, I would recommend Jose's Blue Sombrero for an informal event.

Amazing customer service, people were extremely nice and friendly. Food was good and had excellent choices for vegan and gluten free, allergy friendly menu items. Not super expensive either, which is a huge plus so I can come here more regularly. Only leaving 4 stars because of the water having salt/minerals* and they had to remake my friend’s vegan tacos. Also would add that my mocktail was mostly ice… They were really good about providing allergen free laminated menus with notes. *Suggestion to restaurant, I know other people have commented about the water. It probably would have been a 5 stars if not for water quality. It just was a gritty tap like taste. (FYI water snobs in Madison, RED has the best free water served in restaurants)

Ambrose

Great food and large portions. The staff was knowledgeable about gluten-free options.

Ashley Rauhut

Safe for those of us with celiac disease (gluten allergy) or severe gluten intolerance . All the food is made gluten free since the owner has celiac as well

Luis Gavaldon

First time here, and I was very satisfied with the El Papí sampler and the Lomo Saltado a Caballo (center)paired excellently with a glass of Malbec. My fellow lunch party also enjoyed their meals. They had the Parrilla Callejera (left) and La Taguara Burger (right). They have plenty of gluten-free options as well. Will return again.

Ben Stevens

Great menu, friendly staff, and a fun restaurant. Stopped here during a road trip for breakfast. Highly recommend. Plenty of gluten free options. Very accommodating.

Myja R

Absolutely love this place! The service is helpful and attentive without hovering. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. I've been here many times over the years and feel bad I'm just getting around to reviewing. Also, they take food allergies very seriously. I have celiac, even a tiny bit of gluten makes me massively sick. I've never gotten sick here and the wait staff or person I'm ordering takeout from always double checks with the chef about my order to make sure it is safe.

GLUTEN FREE Options

Peter Angelos

Nice spot for some fresh, festive Mexican food. Also some very good gluten-free options.

Patricia Jackson

Table 65 Bistro is one of my favorite restaurants in New Richmond. They have a vast menu which can accommodate gluten-free and vegan patrons. I haven't eaten anything there that I haven't loved, and I've been there many times. There have been times where we've had to wait quite a while for the food, but then there have also been times where we were served almost immediately. Everyone is nice and to me, it's worth the wait, if there is one. The menu has a variety of price points and many options to choose from. Everyone should be able to find something they're satisfied with. Check them out!

Oli

Good food and friendly staff. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten sensitive opinions. Tacos and stuffed burrito are great, not the enchiladas.

Jessica Q

With having a gluten allergy and a child with a gluten allergy we enjoy the selection of items on the menu. Our favorite are the trio fajitas. About a year back we were sat in Yara's section and since then we have always specifically asked for her. She is always smiling, helpful, laughs, interacts with us and our kids just love her. She is also very attentive when it come to us and having a Gluten allergy. She will make sure that we are informed with what is gluten-free or not when wanting to try new items from the menu. Because of this awesome service we continue to make it a monthly visit to see our favorite person at iguana wana.

Aaron Avery

Great food, great portions, great prices, plus the tacos are gluten free! What more could you ask for?

Jessica Winkel

La Caretta is hands down one of our favorite spots! The family atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff always goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. As a family with food allergies—dairy and gluten—it’s often hard to find places that accommodate us without sacrificing flavor, but La Caretta has truly been a game-changer. Their gluten-free menu is extensive, offering a wide variety of delicious options that never disappoint. Today, I had the tres leche cupcake for dessert, and I can’t even put into words how phenomenal it was. If you're gluten-free, you know how tough it can be to find a rich, tender dessert, but La Caretta absolutely nailed it. The cupcake was decadent, moist, and so incredibly flavorful—it felt like a true treat! We love bringing out-of-town friends and family here, and every time, they are just as impressed as we are. La Caretta consistently delivers an incredible experience, and I can’t recommend it enough. If I could give it more than 10 stars, I absolutely would. 11 out of 10!

clare f

have eaten here multiple times since being diagnosed as celiac! chips are not made in a dedicated fryer but are apparently the only things cooked in the fryer? unsure but have felt fine post eating the chips! pinto beans have gluten so black beans only. gf options are labeled on menu, food will come with allergy tag if waiter/waitress puts allergy note in. also, house tequila is 100% agave so it’s safe from barley/malt/rye liquor. big fan of belair!!

Joanne Schaus

Contento in Delafield is to die for! I almost thought I’d been Raptured after my first bite of Lavender Flan. 😆 Oh yeah, the tacos were absolutely amazing. They look deceptively tiny but were loaded with meat. The cheese dip and chips with pico appetizer was smashingly delish. And the best part for my Celiac self…every item on the menu, with three exceptions, is strict gluten free. Go there. You will thank me.

S. Rodriguez

Margaritas and food was amazing. Not for Celiac people but gluten intolerant would be happy!

Jeremy Gartzke

Food was good, servings were okay size, but ratios seemed off (too much rice, not enough beans/meat). I have celiac so gluten is a big concern for me whenever we try to dine out or get takeout and they handled my order perfectly. Very confident in their ability to handle food allergies especially when the restaurant is not busy, I have not seen them in action during a rush. Would be nice to have a little more info on the menu board, but overall a great experience.

Abby Johnson

Thank you for providing safe gluten free options! It is difficult for our family to eat out in Hayward as we have one adult and one child with celiac disease. The only gluten items on the menu are flour tacos (I would also avoid the fryer if you have celiac), otherwise tacos can be made on corn tortillas. The sweet lady assured me she cooked my daughter’s chicken separately to make sure it was safe for her because she has celiac disease. Thank you for providing a vegetarian option too in the avocado/black bean tacos. Our family appreciates it and we will be back!

TINA WOXLAND

I want to say "THANK YOU SO MUCH!!" to Becky for going to great lengths to make sure I can enjoy a great meal out without the worry of my food allergy to Gluten, I have Celiacs.

Kelly Sielschott

Nice staff..quick and efficient. We eat here often as they have corn tortillas which is perfect since my husband has Celiac Diesel so he has to eat gluten-free. Maybe a line, but you can order pick up online/the app.

Jessica Bignell

Nice place to eat friendly staff. Nice to have gluten free options.

Stephanie Brown

When you've never been, but you think you should, you're right! My very first experience at the QDOBA, and I was quite pleased with the result. The gentleman behind the counter was pleasant enough, and upon hearing it was my first time in said "its like Subway, but Mexican!" After everything, I would much like to agree, with a little addition. The accommodation to gluten free people is a bowl instead of a burrito. The base is still your choice of white or brown rice, and the options for protein & veg are also still varied and good. If in a "Mexican" mood for food downtown, QDOBA can serve you up right!😋

Jerry Krahn

Easy to avoid gluten here if that is a concern

Al Cieslak

Being gluten-free, asked alot of questions. Gerardo J was p

Rebecca

Not a bad spot! I will say it was pricey! They have gluten free options and a ton of place to sit! Not sure I would be back,

SelenaSecretShow

One of the best places to eat at in Waukesha! Only place in Waukesha I trust for great tacos & guacamole. Also they have plenty of gluten - free options too. Great food, great service, and excellent hospitality. Recommended to me by Bridge Church. I've been here a handful of times and it's always good.😊 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🌮🌯🥙🥑🥣🍹

Marc G

Good food. Fast. Gluten free.

Claire Sullivan

Good for gluten free folks. Tell them you have a “gluten allergy” instead of “gluten free” or “celiac”. I have walked out of other locations due to them ignoring my simple requests to change their gloves or get cheese from the cooler, the current staff here actually listen and are helpful.

Christine Libberton

I just went in there tonight with my fiancé, and I was blown away by the staff that helped us. I wish I would have gotten the young man’s name, but he really went above and beyond for me. I was recently diagnosed with celiac disease, so I can’t have any gluten. I went in and asked him to just change his gloves and told him about my gluten issue, and he ended up changing out the utensils in everything that I wanted for my bowl, wiped the counter down and then thoroughly washed and sanitized his hands and arms before putting on new gloves to make my food. I have a lot of anxiety about going out to eat because a lot of restaurants don’t take celiac disease seriously, but they did. I am really grateful and will definitely be back because of this.

Una Sturm

Charlie Gallagher

Always good and they're very careful about gluten contamination for allergies.

Kristin D

We live close to Drexel Square so come here a lot, especially for Taco Tuesday. My husband loves the Ninja Pig and shrimp tacos, I like the barbacoa and port queso. There have been some mixups with our orders, recently I ordered a burrito bowl to go, but received instead an actual burrito on a flour tortilla, and I’m gluten free, so that was a problem. Another time we scheduled an order in advance and when we picked it up, it was ice cold and clearly had been sitting there for quite some time, but when we brought these issues to the attention of management they were remedied, so while disappointing, it won’t keep us from coming back. Not to mention that sitting on their patio with a pitcher of margaritas and chips and their very fine trio of salsas is one of the great pleasures of summer for us.

Called before arriving to confirm that they have gluten free options and the gentleman on the phone was very kind and confirmed that they can let the kitchen know about a food allergy. However, when we arrived and asked about the gluten free options, the wait staff looked at us in confusion. The older gentleman with glasses who took our order was very rude and impatient. He hovered over one of us, tapping his pen, after we kindly told him twice that we need more time to review the menu. When we asked if we could substitute black beans instead of refried beans he had no idea what we were asking for and then angrily responded by saying it comes with "regular beans!". The other wait staff were more friendly, but the service overall was not good. Chicken was barely seasoned. We've been to many authentic Mexican restaurants, but not a good experience for our first time here.

Jason Miller

My wife, being allergic to gluten. Notified the crew 3 separate times and asked the guy making her food to please use clean gloves. The worker was almost done then turned to the guy behind him and specifically asked him to touch the food with his contaminated gloves. At which point my wife cant eat it without a serious reaction. So when I said something the customer behind us said it was on us not there problem, the crew did nothing to claim responsibly but let the person in line continue belittle us for an allergy, at that point they offered to remake her bowl at no charge, it appeared to us that they were just trying to move the line along. No apologies. Nothing. My wife went home hungry, embarrassed and belittled and a little angry. We had an hour drive home. They really need to educate there staff about food allergies and the repercussions of them!

Rose Scholefield

This was the first time I went there. The food was good, but seemed blander than other Mexican restaurants, but maybe that's more authentic. I had the combo dinner with one beef enchilada and one chicken taco, which came with rice and beans. The food was very good quality and fresh tasting, especially the chicken, which was the freshest I have ever had (seemed freshly shredded off the bone). I was just a bit disappointed that it wasn't served with guacamole and sour cream, like many places do, but it was still delicious. The chips and salsa were average, again, they seemed bland. I was very impressed by their great service. Since we're allergic to wheat/gluten, we have to ask a lot of questions before even eating the chips. The waiter had broken English, but reassured us that there was no chicken base with wheat in the rice or beans. He managed to communicate to us that they use FRESH chicken in it, which is uncommon... most places use a chicken base/paste that contains wheat. After he put our order in, to our surprise, a manager showed up at our table to confirm everything he just said -- This was SOOO impressive and important to us and I truly thank them for this, because it put us more at ease! Prices were reasonable too.

Crystal Carlson

I have Celiac and they can adapt anything on their menu for me! Just tell them what you need and they can accommodate you. I had a lovely dinner and didn't get sick(very easy to do). You won't leave hungry and the prices are great! We will definitely be back now that we know they can accommodate my needs!

Lydia Ravenwood

Great for catering - we ordered the taco bar for a birthday party and it couldn't have been smoother. Everyone loved the food, even our vegan guest with a gluten allergy was able to enjoy it. Thank you Cafe Corazon, and Nicole!

Britany Cook

Love eating here. It’s a great place to take the family out to eat. Has vegetarian and Gluten free options!!

Pam Poglitsch

Gluten free is good here. Naked burrito is the best.

Ken Doubek

Fantastic family owned, authentic (as best as an Irishman can tell) Mexican restaurant. We eat here regularly (Chicken Fajitas) and my Wife has a strong Gluten sensitivity; they’re very responsive and she’s never had a problem there! My very favorite are the Seafood burritos, but you better be hungry because the proportions are generous. The table side guacamole service completes the experience.

Purely Kleen

Great allergy options! Very impressive for this Gluten and Fod Map free gal! Would really like to see a menu in Spanish, at least online. I have a hard time finding the menus at this place. I think they could place them somewhere more obvious. Sometimes service is rock star, other times it is a 4 star. Parking is a real issue for when I try to visit. I think I would go more if I could figure that out.

Amy Barger

Just ordered take out for the first time, and wow, we are so impressed! Our food was ready quickly and the order was perfect. I really appreciate the gluten free options, and the beef lomo is definitely something I’ll order again. Will be returning!

Carolyn Schumacher

I have some food intolerances (gluten, cow's milk, legumes), and the waitress took detailed notes, never once giving me a negative expression or comment. The kitchen delivered a wonderful meal that the waitress assured me (unprompted) as she handed me my plate that the kitchen had followed my guidelines. I had no reactions after the meal. My family each loved their selections too.
