Reliable ·what tier B means

The chain's official site says most of the menu is gluten-free. FindMeGlutenFree reviewers report a dedicated fryer and separate preparation of wheat tortillas, and staff are knowledgeable about coeliac needs. However, one diner got glutened from enchiladas and the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. Cross-contamination risk exists; check protocols with staff before ordering.
