Menu marks GF items (Naked Burrito, Nachos, Tacos, Corn Chips & Guac, all fillings) with a dedicated GF icon. However, the kitchen is shared and not dedicated; staff handle gluten-containing flour tortillas in the same prep area. Multiple coeliac reviewers report mixed experiences: some staff change gloves and are careful, others note high cross-contamination risk from shared utensils and hand contact. The FindMeGF listing explicitly states 'NOT a dedicated gluten-free facility'.
