La Tiendita Del Sabor

confidence 85% ·

Verifiably safe, Independently verified safe for this allergen: either a 100% dedicated kitchen (no allergen on premises) or a current accreditation we've matched against the body's own published directory.

A fully dedicated gluten-free kitchen — every item on the menu is gluten free, from arepas and empanadas to cachapas and fries. Two coeliac reviewers on FindMeGlutenFree both awarded the 'Dedicated GF' badge and reported zero reactions. The family-run kitchen uses corn-based masa (maize flour) as its base, so there is no wheat flour on the premises. No shared fryers or prep surfaces with gluten-containing ingredients exist.

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

Nearly every dish has a vegan version with house-made vegan cheese, 'beef', and 'meatballs'. HappyCow reviewers consistently mention 'lots of vegan options' and a dedicated vegan menu. The kitchen is family-run and clearly labels vegan choices. Cross-contamination risk is low since the kitchen is already gluten-free and the vegan items are prepared with separate plant-based ingredients.

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

FindMeGlutenFree lists the venue as 'good for dairy-free' and HappyCow mentions house-made vegan cheese. However, traditional Venezuelan dishes like cachapas and arepas often use regular cheese (queso de mano). The kitchen can make dairy-free versions on request, but there is no dedicated dairy-free prep area. Best to confirm with staff.
