Important Notes About Cross-Contact

Shared Fryers

Our corn tortilla chips and french fries are made from gluten-free ingredients. However, they are fried in the same oil as our chicken tenders and wings, which are coated in flour. Because of this shared fryer, chips and fries may not be suitable for guests with celiac disease or severe gluten sensitivities.

Rice

White rice is gluten-free.Mexican rice may not be considered gluten-free because as it is flash-fried in shared oil.

Barbacoa

The sauce used for our barbacoa contains wheat as does the consommé served with birria tacos. This includes the barbacoa used in our birria tacos.

Tortillas

Both corn tortillas and flour tortillas are normally heated on the same tortilla press. Guests may request that corn tortillas be heated separately in our back kitchen using a clean preparation area to reduce the risk of cross-contact.

Allergy Disclaimer

While we take reasonable precautions, our kitchen handles wheat and other allergens. As a result, cross-contact is always possible. We cannot guarantee that any menu item is completely free of gluten.
