Excellent for Celiac

Xochi is a true haven for celiacs in Houston—almost everything on the menu is naturally gluten-free, and they're transparent about the rare exceptions (think: a burger bun or breadcrumbs on certain oysters). The staff consistently demonstrates deep knowledge and care when it comes to cross-contact, and their scratch kitchen means you can savor handmade masa, Oaxacan moles, and even decadent desserts with real confidence. Yes, there was one report of accidental gluten exposure, which always gives me pause, but the sheer volume of positive celiac experiences and attentive service puts my mind at ease. If you've ever wished for a place where you could just sit back, exhale, and enjoy the flavors of Mexico without fear—well, this is it.
