Oren's Hummus Shop

I had eaten here about 10x without issue but was glutened by them last night even with ordering everything GF. No longer feel safe eating here.

I used to order from them though Uber eats (that was in March and July 2023). I was craving this since I knew I was going back to the bay for a business trip. The hummus was always great and safe. GF pita was clearly marked and came in a sealed plastic bag. Just found out they now outsource the process for deliveries and are working with places (in my case Noshery) which doesn’t pay much attention to cross contact. They also don’t offer the Jaffa and beets hummus anymore. The pita came in an open paper bag with no GF label or anything written on it. So I called and asked and they assured me it was safe. I tried it and it was nothing compared to what they used to be. Dry and flavorless. Won’t order from them again.

Potentially was glutened here. :( Staff seemed knowledgeable about GF options and about changing gloves to avoid cross-contamination, so I ordered GF pita with Jaffa-style plain hummus with parsley and pine nuts. Then started feeling symptomatic afterward. I can’t really think of where the cross-contamination came in, since it seemed like all of their hummuses are GF and mine was plain to boot. Maybe in the GF pita? It was at least visually distinct from the whole wheat pita my friend ordered. Or maybe there was cross-contamination earlier in preparation with the chickpeas or tahini. Sadly I have to recommend caution at this location.

They have a wide variety of gluten free options and are knowledgeable about allergies but I highly doubt there are serious precautions taken against cross contamination since there is so much gluten on the menu. That being said- Having gluten free pita bread is a MASSIVE game changer as most Mediterranean places do not offer gluten free bread. They delivered it with the hummus but in a separate basket than my friends regular pita, which I appreciated! The falafel is absolutely delicious!!!

Awesome hummus. Good amount of vegan/vegetarian options. Eaten here way too many times and haven't gotten sick

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten-free pita was pretty good, and their hummus is great and very rich. A lot of their food is a bit too oily/heavy for my liking, but I appreciate that there are so many gf options, and I didn't get glutened.

Love this place so much! Staff is very knowledgable and I’ve never gotten sick here. Almost everything on their menu is gluten free, and they label all gluten free and non-gluten free items on the menu. Their hummus and kabobs are amazing! Comes with basket of veggies but you can also get gluten free pita.

Good menu, knowledgeable staff, lots of amazing options. Food is fantastic and I've never been sick

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was amazing! Almost everything is gluten free and marked with "gf" of the menu. Servers are super friendly. Service was very fast; we got our food within ten minutes. Also, amazing desserts!

Online order and in-person pick-up. Staff was uppity. GF basket was bad vegetables rather than anything pita-like despite being in the same section as pita. Although I like the food and they have gf options, the interactions and overall experience make it not worthwhile.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is great !!! Almost all menu is GF. Easy to understand as it all marked clearly in the menu. My kids had the chicken skewer and fries and were delighted. The only downside is that this place doesn't serve any GF pitas but rather than this I highly recommend!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love this place! So good!

never have gotten sick here, almost entire menu is gluten free minus the bread.

Ok, the food is really good and I've never had a reaction here but some of the staff could be better informed. Sometimes I will ask them about an item and they will say "I don't know" and then just stand there looking at me. "I'll check with the kitchen" would be a better response. It limits what I am comfortable eating there but what I do get is always good.

Amazing hummus and TONS of GF food. We drive 15 miles out of our way just to eat here.
