El Padrino's
The venue's own website states that there are many gluten free and vegetarian options.
Per-allergen evidence
The venue's own website states that there are many gluten free and vegetarian options. Community reviews on FindMeGlutenFree report that items which can be made gluten free are marked on the menu. Reports about a dedicated fryer for chips, however, are contradictory. One review states that a child with coeliac became ill after nachos despite staff assurance of a dedicated fryer. The aggregator warns that this is not a dedicated gluten free facility. A very old review says everything was fried with wheat products. The most recent reviews suggest some staff knowledge and a shared kitchen with some gluten free options. Calling ahead to confirm current practices is advised.
