I met my sister at La Sandia located at Tysons Corner today. It's a modern Mexican restaurant and my sister had told me they had a gluten-free menu so I was excited to try it out. If you check out their menu online they place a (G) next to all gluten-free items.
Unfortunately the menu at the restaurant did not specify which items were gluten-free. We asked the waiter and he said they just re-printed new menu's and they must have forgotten to add G's...ha!
The waiter didn't seem to know what was gluten-free either. He told me the corn chips were not gluten free bc they were made of corn flour. I assured him corn flour was gluten-free so he told me they were not gluten-free because they were friend in soy oil...which is in fact gluten-free! I think he was a bit confused.
Oh well, I figured out that I could eat the chicken enchillada's and some queso and chips. It was ok. I probably won't go there again :-)
But if you're interested...the address is:
7852 Tysons Corner Center, Mclean, VA
