Kitade Tacos

Excellent GF tacos maize based. Showed our Legal Nomads GF explanation in Japanese. Staff said all GF. Picture menu with English. Food lovely and fresh. Next door to small eateries with non GF pizza, bakery, beer and coffee premises all under the same roof. Can buy from each place if you want with one seating area. Good value.

This little food court is so cool! I read on this site that the Kitade Tacos location in Tokyo Station was pretty safe, so decided to try my luck. The staff member at the till looked at my Legal Nomads Gluten Free Restaurant Card and looked very worried. He went to check with the kichen. Because the Chipotle sauce in which many meats are marinated had soybean oil in it, this concerned staff member said I could only have the mushroom taco. I tried to explain that only soy SAUCE was a problem, but the language barrier, even with Google Translate, was too much. The GF card overwhelmed them. They called in another employee (I think he was the manager), who spoke great English and understood Celiac Disease because he had spent 6 years in New York, explained that everything, including the quesadillas (which look like they might be made of wheat flour in the menu picture), are made with Hokkaido corn and are safe options. Had the Meat Taco Set (3 tacos with Chicken, Pork and Beef with little taco chips). Were quite good! The Churros are specially indicated on the menu as gluten free, so I tried those. They were overdone, but still good. The bonus with this location is that there are bunch of other little restaurants all in a row, so would be great to go there with a group. Had an amazing authentic Match Latté (no syrup) at the little café at the end and there's a good amount of seating.
