Mad Mex Southern Cross Tower

Mad Mex has a gluten-marked menu with GF items including burrito bowls, nachos, and corn-tortilla tacos. Most fillings are reported GF; wheat tortillas are sold alongside. Staff will change gloves on request, but this is inconsistent — at least one reviewer noted staff did not change gloves even after being told. No dedicated fryer or kitchen reported. Cross-contamination risk is explicitly acknowledged by multiple community sources.
