Hecho En Mexico

HappyCow describes the Geelong venue as having a separate vegan menu with meat substitutes, confirmed by two HappyCow reviewers who enjoyed vegan nachos and enchiladas. The Wanderlog listing also mentions vegan options at the Geelong address. The vegan menu appears to be clearly separated, but the kitchen also serves meat and dairy dishes, so cross-contact is possible. Inform staff you're vegan and confirm your order is prepared with separate utensils.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

The Geelong HappyCow listing marks vegetarian as a category with good options (vegan section plus veggie items like Halloumi, nachos, vegetarian burrito). The kitchen handles meat alongside vegetables, so cross-contact is possible but the menu explicitly labels vegetarian options. Ask staff about dedicated prep if you need strict vegetarian.

marked menu

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 55% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The Geelong restaurant lists gluten-free items like tacos, fajitas, and nachos, and a coeliac reviewer at the Carnegie branch reported GF items clearly marked on the menu. However, the kitchen is not dedicated (corn tortillas and wheat flour are both used), the Melbourne Hardware Lane branch had staff who were unfamiliar with coeliac disease, and the Find Me Gluten Free listing warns it is not a dedicated facility. For the Geelong location, cross-contamination risk is likely moderate; call ahead to confirm staff awareness and procedures.
