El Dorado Cantina really stands out for gluten-free diners looking for safe, vibrant Mexican cuisine on the Las Vegas Strip. While it's not a dedicated gluten-free facility, their menu clearly marks numerous 'gluten-friendly' dishes (think enchiladas, tacos, fajitas, and even house-made chips and salsas), and the kitchen leans heavily on corn tortillas and naturally gluten-free ingredients. Staff are attentive and seem familiar with dietary needs—I've seen them walk diners through options and answer questions without hesitation. Still, with shared kitchen spaces and terms like 'gluten-friendly' instead of 'gluten-free,' there’s always a small risk of cross-contact; so if you're ultra-sensitive, be sure to communicate your needs clearly when ordering. But honestly? For Strip dining, this is one of the most inclusive and transparent spots I’ve found—there’s real peace of mind in their labeling and ingredient quality.
