We had dinner at Don Pablo's in Roseville this evening. The staff was very accomodating to our requests. As for publishing allergen information on their website, Don Pablo's leaves something to be desired.
Their website has this disclaimer:
Don Pablo's recently had a number of product changes and can not provide allergen-free listings at this time. We are currently working with our manufacturers to obtain and develop allergen-free listings. Unfortunately, this is a lengthy process and we do not anticipate availability of this information in the near future.
We asked our server about milk products and he was extremely helpful. After checking with the manager and kitchen staff, he told us that the tortillas are safe, as are the refried beans. You have to ask for the beef and chicken to be grilled without seasoning, as their seasoning contains whey. The margarine that the vegetables are sauteed in is questionable, but you can ask for steamed vegetables.
Hopefully, Don Pablo's will get allergen information available on their website soon.

REALLY helpful! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI have to add/edit to your post. We've visited our local DP restaurant and asked about allergens and were told the same thing about the tortillas (that they did not contain whey/milk/casein). However, last week a server told me the tortillas and sopapillas contain whey in the seasoning. With conflicting reports from the same restaurant, I got in touch with corporate via email and received this response today:
ReplyDelete"Please note that the seasoning used to condition our flour tortilla and sopapilla dough contains whey. Currently, we do not have allergen menus but if you will provide me a list of items of interest, I will be glad to look them up or request information from the manufacturers on your behalf. Please bear in mind that it may take a week or two to pull the information together but I will certainly do my best.
In the meantime, I would like to make you aware that our Mexican rice and a number of our premade seasoning packets for sauces, soups and side items also contain whey."
