Tarka Indian Kitchen

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The pakora by itself would rate 5 stars. The kabobs, saag paneer, mango lassi.....all wonderful. Thank you for giving us another viable option for gluten free eating. Highly recommended.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Clearly marked menus available, and the food was very good! They have a dedicated fryer, and the cashier was very knowledgeable of gluten concerns. Wish we had one of these where I live!

Separate GF menu (lots of options), staff was knowledgeable and they even have a separate GF fryer.

I eat here regularly. You have to ask at the counter for the gluten free menu, but the menu on the website tells what is GF so you cab plan ahead. There is a good selection to choose from.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious and no problems!

I eat here regularly and have never gotten sick. Tasty Indian food and the gluten free pakoras are fried in a separate fryer.

Worst place ever. I showed up to pick up my food and the cashier who gave me my order had the worst attitude. He looked like he hated his job. When he gave me the receipt to sign he just thru it on the counter. I do not recall his name but it was some tall white guy with long hair. He was there on Sunday April 3 2016 at 6:45pm . I have celiac disease so I am about eat my food I'll let you know what kind of reaction I get after I eat the food to determine whether it's celiac friendly or not.

Thank u SA Gluten Free Girl! Celiac is all new to me and I've been feeling down about all the restrictions... Tarka made me feel like there's still lots of yummy food out there for me! Delicious! Huge GF menu. Korma was great! Basmati rice! Staff totally gets it. U have to order at the counter but the dining area is nice/cool.

This is like an Indian take on Pei Wei style, if you have ever been to Pei Wei restaurants. Quite a similar setup. The food is fresh and made in spot. Way better and more varied gluten free options. For those who are timid about Indian spices, they give the option of mild, medium or hot. My girls tasted our soups and asked for both kinds, and even the kids menu has options. Their mango lemonade is outstanding. :-)

Celiac friendly?

This food is amazing! When i first came i tried many thins to share and they're all impressive. The vegetable pakoras that are fried in a dedicated frier (tempura kinda), the curries with rice and kabobs. All with good flavor and presentation.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I can't stay out of this place! The Korma is my favorite. The salad is wonderful, the veggies, everything I have had on the GF menu has been wonderful. I ate there three times in one week!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

HUGE variety of gluten free items- even pakoras! I love the chicken kabobs and curries, although I do miss the tandoori stuff. Super yummy and fresh at a good price. You can order at the counter and choose your own seat, or do take out. I think I'm addicted.

Nervous takes-it-super-serious celiac here and oh man... I haven’t had Indian food in probably years and this was excellent. Items are clearly marked on main menu as GF and most of the menu can be made gluten free. They have one fryer where nothing glutenous is fried, so we were able to try the Badmaash fries which were awesome. Also had the coconut curry and the Mitch Masala curry. Both were really good. Note that it’s warned as super spicy but I didn’t find it that spicy. We also had a biryani that was just so awesome. Lots of leftovers with 2 people splitting all those dishes (I just devoured them mwahahahaha). Orders are placed at a counter, kind of fast-food-esque, and dishes are brought out to us. Everything was awesome and they took all the necessary precautions to keep celiacs safe. Hymns of joy playing in my head with every bite. 5 stars.

Eaten here several times with no issues. :) Had GF menu behind counter and lots of options. Quick, friendly, delicious. Vegan and dairy-free options too.

Yum, yum, yum! I am dairy free, as well, but I still have options. Love the basic chicken curry made with coconut milk.

Some of the best Indian food I've had. GF items available and staff seems knowledgable about GF food handling

Ordered the korma off the gluten free menu and got very sick. Reported to restaurant management.

Approximately half menu available GF.Very tasty. Staff knowledgeable and willing to work around other allergies, I'm allergic to chili peppers - Korma and Coconut Curry, Very Mild, are good, pleasingly spicy, and without hot peppers.

Good food. Just ask for a gluten-free menu from behind the counter!
