El Sabor - Mexican Restaurant

A community review on FindMeGlutenFree reports that almost the whole menu is marked GF but all equipment is shared and cross-contaminated, making it unsafe for coeliac disease except for a burrito bowl. The venue's own website shows no allergen markings on menu images. The FindMeGlutenFree listing itself says 'Reported NOT to have a gluten-free menu', and the venue has no accreditation. With shared prep, no dedicated fryer, and no dedicated kitchen, the structural tier is D (marked menu, shared equipment).
