Review of Tanoor

We really enjoyed our time here. Our server was lovely! Ordering gluten free was easy. Everything gluten free on the menu was specified, our server was knowledgeable and caring, and when my dining companion ordered tabbouleh, our server even paused and warned us it that it does have gluten so not to share it. (I do wish there had been a gluten free version of tabbouleh - at home I make tabbouleh and instead of bulgur, I just add a Minute Rice cup of brown and wild rice mixture - the texture and flavor work perfectly.) My dining companion and I enjoyed our meal and left happy and completely satisfied.

The only reason I did not rate the safety of our experience more highly (I rated three hearts out of five) is that I did end up with symptoms of gluten exposure a few hours after eating, and I feel fairly certain this was the source. Here is what I think happened. My sandwich had accidentally been made with regular pita. My server caught the error before it was brought out and asked the kitchen staff to remake my sandwich with the gluten free pita. He then brought my companion their food and let me know mine was on the way. I think the kitchen staff might have made an error at this point, and it could have been something as simple as forgetting to change gloves.

I would still try this place again in the future if I lived locally, but I would be more careful about asking questions if anything unexpected comes up.
