Wonderful experience here. First time is always a little nerve racking but felt super safe after the manager helped explain how things are prepared. Feel great after this meal. Got chicken kabob, rice, hummus, and tatziki! Will be back
My go to spot for rotisserie chicken Never had a problem but only really order whole chicken and let them know gf / no bread Garlic sauce rocks
Excellent food. Everything gluten free except the pita bread and the tabouleh. Our 9-year old daughter who has celiac and eats like a bird ate an entire plate herself. She can’t wait to go back. Staff very knowledgeable kept our plate with pita separate from hers. It’s our new go-to!
Notes
ALL of our menu items are gluten-free EXCEPT for the pita bread and Tabouleh Salad. Next time you visit, you may ask for "No Bread" on the 'Chicken', 'Plate', or 'Side' items. All wraps are made with pita bread, and therefore contain gluten.

I was hungry for Mediterranean food. We called around to a few local places and this place was the most knowledgeable about gluten free foods. Pretty much everything is naturally gluten free. Not the pita or wraps obviously. Lots of choices with delicious sauces. I got a bowl with chicken, rice, cucumber salad, hummus and sauces. So good and very fresh tasting!
The allergen guide says that the only items with gluten are the taboulleh salad and the pita. The server was very aware of this and had a copy of the guide next to his cash register. They were extra careful not to even put pita on my plate. Everything was yummy, and I had no bad reactions.
At first pita was topped on my rice and chicken plate but the workers were sensitive to my request for a plate with no cross contamination. The staff made sure I had a good experience

I’ve been a Zankou lover since back in the 90s at the OG location. It’s had its rough spots and after being diagnosed it wasn’t as GF friendly as I had hoped.
Well things have CHANGED! They have an allergen list, protocols in place, and are more careful with cross contamination.
So glad to finally have this back in my life.
the cashier did not know what gluten was. and was very confused when I asked her about what was gluten free she was very clueless
According to the information on their website, everything is gluten-free except for the taboula salad and the pita bread. I stayed away from both and had a wonderful, filling meal without any bad effects.
Really good food. Kind of pricey though. Website is marked with what is gluten free. Staff will mark order with allergy to make sure staff change gloves
I hadn’t had food from here in years, but got it twice in the last few days, once alone, and again with my sister (also celiac). Neither of us got sick. They have pretty clear info on their website that beside pita and tabbouleh salad everything is gluten free. Both times I ordered via postmates and selected the option for “no pita.” Both times the food came with pita but the pita was in its own plastic bag and didn’t contaminate the rest of the food, so I just threw the pita away. The food was quite good.
***UPDATE: I’ve eaten here about 20 times since my initial review and have not gotten sick****
