Top 26 Gluten-Free Taco Spots Across Minnesota

Ashley Lushinsky

Will ask you when you walk in if you need a GF menu. Owner has celiac. Has separate kitchen space. Large menu. Everything is delicious

Justine Stell

My favorite place to bring my vegan and gluten free friends. They adore the food and I love seeing them happy. Such a vibey place.

I’ve accepted that I’ll never be a judge on Master Chef, in return I’d accepted that I’d never have an experience where you bite into a dish and get to be absolutely astounded by all the flavors and profiles that come along with it… until I ate at Colita! We had the Pate and it was nothing short of remarkable! The staff was top tier, the food was outstanding, and the atmosphere is intimate and inviting! I’m completely gluten free and could order anything on the menu! We had the best time! Thank you for hosting us and giving us an exceptional experience start to finish! 💕

Who thought with celiac disease you could go to a mall and be 100% safe to eat while you are out!! Not until today!! Food was delicious... Loved being able to get some fried food without worry of cross contamination. Everyone should try it... Even if you don't have a gluten problem! The cheese curds... Yum!!!

Kasia

Very celiac friendly, the food is very fresh and vibrant. The staff is friendly and helpful. I wish it had a bigger seating area so I could bring everyone I know :)

Zack Jacobs

My girlfriend and I split the Jerk caramel wings and the double burger. Both were great! We are gluten-free, and they have a lot of options for us too.

Brian Kennedy

Our go to "fast food" spot. Gluten free burgers. Sports Bar atmosphere, not our thing, but it's always.

Anna Drechsel

So nice to have gluten free / celiac safe options! Yummy food.

Alex Falkenberg

Saw so many positive reviews stating this was celiac-safe, good for those with gluten issues, and delicious---but when we went, the very first thing was saw was someone patting down flour tortillas on the line preparing someone else's food, and they went straight in with the same gloved hands into the cheese and other ingredients, contaminating everything (tho it was surely already well-compromised before we saw it). We had no choice but to drop out of line waiting to order and find another place to eat. A real shame--we were so ready to have something delicious and safely gluten-free after an hours-long drive in all the bad winter weather with this place in mind for dinner. :(

Han Kim

Very tasty with many options for allergens like gluten and casein. Masa is the focus and Oro doesn't disappoint!

MARTI JONES

Terrible food, worse than mediocre Mexican! Sever was great and helped me with gluten free food. Margarita was good. I do not recommend eating here.

reggierules

GLUTEN FREE ENCHILADAS wuth RED sauce (rarely gf in restaurants) with rice and refried beans!! So delicious. Will def be back next time in town!!! 😍😍

Amelia Ley

I have severe celiac and I safely ate delicious food here! My server was kind and knowledgeable. I was told by my partner and brother that the gluten food was also delicious.

La Tapatia 5 stars because the food really showed out! Authentic, flavorful Mexican food, definitely some of the best in Minnesota and felt like it was a hidden gem for sure. We came on a Saturday, at about 4/4:30, before the dinner rush, purposefully. Service: We were warmly greeted after entering their somewhat long hallway. Our server was helpful with the menu when we asked but never smiled. They weren’t busy at this time and I felt like they were attentive. Food: this is where they shine! We loved everything we ordered. We started with Queso Blanco, Guacamole and freshly made chips. Everything was good, particularly the chips. For our main course we ordered tacos and Burrito. The Tacos we ordered (which were all corn) included the Al Pastor (4/5) street style, Chorizo (5/5) Tejano style, Pescado (fried fish- 4/5), Camarones (grilled shrimp 5/5) Tejano style, Burrito was vegetarian (5/5). We also ordeeed a large rice, which was the best Mexican rice we have ever had. We loved all the salsas and tried each of them. The hot was hot but totally still enjoyable. The Salsa verde and Salsa Aguacate (w/avocado) were are favorites and both milder. The only drink menu we were given has beers on it (which neither of us usually do) but we shared a raspberry beer, it was nice. Unfortunately we were too full to try desserts but they looked delicious and I heard they are. Food portions are not large, so you definitely won’t feel like you’re overeating. They have gluten-free options, and vegetarian options so you can find something for almost everyone. Atmosphere: It was warmly decorated with high ceilings. It’s not a large place but I’m sure would accommodate a lot more if it were summer and the patio area was open for sure. It wasn’t loud but then again, we came before a rush. The seating is not the most comfortable, as it’s high tops or diner tables with metal chairs (high top chairs have no backs). It felt like a family/kid friendly area and lots to look at. You go for the food and you will be pleasantly surprised. I definitely recommend and we plan to come back!

Came here twice in a row for lunch. Saucy tots tacos are righteous! Falafel was pretty darn good. Bean taco was even tasty. The place is a bit gritty, but I could have cared less after biting into those tasty tacos! Tots tacos and falafel are marked as Not Gluten free on the menu, however, if you're not bothered by shared oil for frying, they are, for sensitivity only, gluten free enough for me! I'm definitely stealing the idea for tots tacos at home!

Aaron Copes

Amazing food. Almost everything is gluten free

Christine Winans

Great food knowledge staff. I'm highly Sensitive to gluten and no reaction at all.

Ramon Schwab

I'm a gluten for Mexican food and this place is at the top of my list!! Even better are the people who work here and the owner. Top notch

Alysia Thomas

Yummy food. Almost everything is gluten free except the tortillas. The workers changed their gloves and we're careful not to contaminate our food. I was thrilled that they have horchata (cinnamon rice milk drink) which is hard to find in the midwest. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area again.

Jane Lagerquist

Lots of gluten free options. 3-6pm happy hour. This was very good, booth seating. Parking on the side lot.

Carrie Geske

Good food, reasonable prices. Gluten free options marked GF on the menu. Food made from scratch. Server did not check back on us often enough for pop refill etc.

Sabrina Spörk Woodling

Didn't even know there was a Centro over here! The food was good. The place was pretty empty for a Saturday afternoon which was nice for a quiet environment and service was real fast. Overall pricing is reasonable. I really like their queso too! Plenty of Gluten Free options (not sure if it's celiac friendly, but perfect for a gluten sensitivity!)

Benjamin Olsen

Had a fantastic meal at Machete. My companion had dietary restrictions, so we decided to go out for Mexican food. Our food arrived promptly after ordering, the drinks we ordered were delicious, the service was excellent, and the live music added to the overall enjoyable dining experience.

CoryAnn K

The service was great and the atmosphere was very nice. The food was decent, but not amazing. I think they are trying really hard to get the farm to table, real food feel, but fall short in a couple of areas. They should use real ketchup, and the cheese on their cheeseburger was like plastic. Also, there weren't very many vegetable options. We asked for the brussel sprouts to be sauteed instead of fried, but they wouldn't do it. That was disappointing. Glad they have some gluten free options. The chicken was excellent- you can tell it's high quality. We will definitely come back, but I hope they try to raise the bar on their other ingredients and not use so much vegetable oils, but instead use butter, lard, or things that really do come from a farm. Update: we did get a phone call from the owner who said normally they can make vegetables with butter in a pan. Appreciate the follow up.

Elisha Carlson

I ate here as a celiac who was just diagnosed 6 months prior. They have a lot of gluten free items on the menu so I asked how those would be prepared. I was told the corn tortillas and chips are cooked separately from the flour tortillas. I opted for the steak fajitas and asked for a glove change and just double checked about the corn tortillas. Was reassured they were cooked separately. After 2.5 hours I did not have a reaction

Erin Elleraas

Casa Rio is utterly amazing!! You can taste the love they put in their food. My favorite is the seafood enchiladas. Other places use small diced pieces but not here! Big chunks of deliciousness!! The food is made from scratch down to to taco sauce.And yes you must get the award winning queso and margaritas. The queso is gluten free!! My favorite margarita is the El Rey. It's DTA's best hidden gem! You can tell the owner really cares and takes pride in his place. So worth checking out!!!!

Natasha Curry

Came here specifically for the gluten free options for my coeliac daughter. Disappointed that the nachos are marked GF but actually cooked in the same oil with gluten ingredients. But happy that the waitress was aware and alerted us. There are other GF options - we had a shredded chicken bowl which was GF. Reasonably tasty and a good quick pre-flight meal.

Sovalon Torres

I love Taco Libre! They have many gluten free options to choose from. In my opinion way better than Chipotle and Pancheros! For a limited time they are serving chilaquiles and they are fantastic! $11 for a really good sized order!

Emily Kelly

The food is fresh and tasty! I love that the salsas pack a nice bit of heat, the fillings are flavorful, and the portions are reasonable. We ordered here for lunch. Our group is a bit tricky in that we have some plant based folks, some Gluten-free folks, allergies etc. The staff was knowledgeable about ingredients and offered great options. We were able to easy suit everyone's needs. It was a bit hit! Thank you!

Andrea Hammel Wollak

Great authentic food. Daughter and I are gluten intolerant and have had no issue with the food. Get the El Surco 18!!! Meal for 2. Paloma was good too.

William

Good gluten free options

Ruth Myers

The owner and bartender were very attentive and caring. They offered gluten-free buns and pizza, and the special was a big burger with tater tots for only $6. The drinks and beer were great, and they also had gluten-free options available. I can't wait to go back again!

Diane Afrooz

I love this place, and their sister restaurant next door. Everything here is delicious. And the outdoor patio is large, and first come first serve. I see lots of dates happening here, and lots of dogs on the patio. Parking can get congested during peak times, so plan accordingly. Gluten Free options!!

Brad Lynch

Great authentic food and great service. One of our party has Celiac and they were very careful to not cross contaminate. It wasn't very busy at the time... That's the only reason for 4/5 on atmosphere

John Severs

Excellent food! A wide selection of vegetarian and nonvegetarian tacos (even gluten-free if you choose corn tortilla shells.) They have live music several nights of the week. The restaurant is closed on Monday and Tuesday. It's definitely one of our family favorites!

Daniel Gerland

Most attractive food I've seen and tasted in ages! The atmosphere was a bit rustic and loud but the food was so incredible and well put together that I didn't mind the noise from the other tables! Tap beers, elevated cuisine, fantastic (and huge) shakes, vegan and gluten-free options! The whole package. In warmer weather they seem to have a really nice outdoor seating area and seems dog friendly. Highly recommend!

Shana Sandoz Thiele

I'm newly vegan and gluten free due to health reasons and finding items on the menu was a piece of cake.

Amber Raissian

My fave place to go for Taco Tuesday while at work in Downtown Saint Paul, hands down better than chipotle! Good Customer service and almost everything is gluten free! Love it

Rebecca Vierzba

Went here for the first time since they opened and am glad I did. The food was awesome!!! We had Birria tacos and Birria Ramen. They also have a decent selection of gluten-free items !!

Paul and Cindy Pfannenstein

I have been there twice so far and love it. A lot of gluten free options and dishes that we haven’t seen in this area. Highly recommend it.

C K

I really wish they still had the tostadas from the dollar menu. Those were so delicious, and that corn shell was perfect for us gluten-free folk. Please bring back the tostada! I also miss the breakfast skillet. That was also another delicious gluten-free alternative I loved, that they've gotten rid of. Please bring back the breakfast skillet! Otherwise, I'm always happy with the food I get and better prices than most places.

Erin Wehrs

Great sweet potato and elote burrito bowl! They said their bowls are gluten free.

Noah Patterson

The tacos here are amazing. I’ve done takeout here and dine in. They are fast and affordable. The service is wonderful! Above and beyond. The food is delicious and gluten free (or at least most of it I think). The parking is a bit weird, but not bad if you don’t mind walking 1 minute. It’s right near the lake and other shops you can visit after or before eating.

Mackenzie Dwyer

Super yummy Mexican food! I ordered a strawberry margarita (blended) which was HUGE, easily could have shared with my husband, but no complaints here :). I also ordered the steak and chicken fajitas with corn tortillas. My waiter was somewhat knowledgeable about what items were gluten free, items weren't marked on the menu though.

Mariah Eggert

Being someone with Celiac Disease, the waitress took the extra time to go over menu items that were safe for me, and the cook was educated with gluten free, to avoid cross contamination so that i could enjoy my meal

joey shearen

Pretty good taco joint with many menu items plus gluten free and some alcoholic drinks if needed.

Sarah Manley

My table was freshly disinfected before I was allowed to sit. My waiter was really efficient. have a gluten issue and my waiter was really knowledgeable about what I could and couldn't have. If I go back to that area I'll be sure to go back.

Chloe Drinka

The young men working there were so patient while I was looking for a gluten free taco. Two thumbs up!

Stephanie Herrera

I go here because it's one of the only fast food drive throughs where I can get something somewhat gluten-free. I like that it's consistent, regardless of location. I've not ever had an issue with poor service or not getting what I ordered.

Caveman 1996

Manager on duty was a young girl with very short hair who's name I cant remember but was very knowledgable about all food preparation (gluten free) and was working hard. 10 out of 10.
