Velvet Taco does a decent job marking gluten-free items with a (GF) icon, and staff are trained to clean stations and change gloves on request—so if you're just gluten sensitive, you might get by with careful questions. But for those of us with celiac disease, the big catch is that there's no dedicated fryer or prep area, and even the menu admits cross-contamination is likely. Only a couple of tacos (like the quesabirria and salmon) are marked as gluten-free, and even then, ingredients are cooked in shared spaces. It's one of those places that's exciting in concept but honestly, I'd steer clear if you need to be strictly gluten free—peace of mind is worth more than any taco.
