Koba Grill

I used to be able to eat here with no issues but the last few times, I reacted pretty badly. Unfortunately they no longer take Celiac gluten free precautions.

No gf options that I can find. The last time we picked up food at the Greenway Tigard location, my face puffed up as they use soy sauce (wheat based) in their house sauce. No Tamari options available.

Celiacs Beware: On 1/29/2023 I went into Koba to get a chicken bulgogi bowl and I told them I have celiac disease (I have eaten there a number of times in the past with no issue). They told me they recently changed their menu and the “GF” next to this item that was listed as “gluten free” is no longer, and the “GF” now means “gluten FRIENDLY.” They said it was “reduced gluten,” whatever that means. THEIR MENU IS NO LONG GLUTEN FREE! Do not trust the “GF” tag.

This is my safe space! I've eaten here over 10 times and never gotten sick. I do always get the same two things though ha ha. I get the chicken bulgogi and the bibimbop.

Went based off the reviews of this app. Got the beef bolgogi and a bubble tea. Started getting sick about 45 mins later :( told them about my allergy and everything.

GF TERIYAKI. 🥳 Their sauce is so good. I’ve eaten here several times (and at a few locations) without getting sick; just stick to what’s labeled and clarify your allergens with the server!

So amazing. They have several options and the food is delicious. I have had the chicken bulgogi twice and never felt better.

Great gluten free menu. I eat here a few times a month and I have had no problems with cross contamination or getting sick. Also their bulgogi is delicious.

I do not have celiacs but even a little cross contamination and I get hives/dermatitis and I havent gotten that here ;)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Korean bbq and many items gluten free. They use GF soy sauce in all dishes.
