Symptomatic celiac, ate there twice in my trip and did not get sick. Gluten free menu was really good. Nachos were a large serving.

What a cute little place! I'm so glad that I chose this restaurant for my first meal after landing in San Diego. The service was impeccable. It felt like visiting someone's home. Everyone was so genuine and caring. They checked in on me often without being overbearing. And I never felt rushed. My drink and food came out very quickly. And everything was soooo good! While I didn't try the spicy salsa, the other two were very good. I think the red one was my favorite. I was concerned about needing to order a side, but the Arepa was very filling! I love that it was gluten free and vegan but didn't substitute the flavor. This is a great neighborhood spot that I hope stays around for a long time!

Gluten free options are available, just had to ask the waiter. Almost everything on the menu can be made Gluten free. The food was delicious, staff were accommodating and the atmosphere was fun!

I honestly was not expecting much from this place but I was so surprised. This was probably one of the best places I've ever eaten in my entire life. Even more so is there than most educated I've ever seen a restaurant with food allergies. They knew exactly what cross-contamination was and being Celiac this was the easiest place to eat on earth. I had the crab stuffed salmon. As somebody who has white level of spicy I was a little bit nervous to order this. Just had the perfect amount of space and the portion was so filling. Normally when you order Seafood you leave hungry but I was so content. I actually would have licked the plate clean. I'd do some sketchy shit for this plate. The flan was also very good but small for the portion size.
