Toro Cantina is that rare gem—a true 100% gluten-free facility—where celiacs can finally exhale and just enjoy the party. Every taco, every chip, every creamy queso is prepared in an environment designed for safety from the ground up, with a dedicated fryer and staff who really know their stuff (and actually remember your allergies). The variety here is a breath of fresh air: think blue corn tortillas, rice-flour fried shrimp tacos, and classics like sweet potato tacos with goat cheese—all marked and safe to the last bite. It’s not just about eating without fear; it’s about savoring bold flavors, festive vibes, and genuine hospitality that lets you feel like you truly belong at the table.
