Gluten-free items are marked on the menu.

I go with the steak or salmon feast with no pita. The Mediterranean salad and rice are good.

The olive souffle is good, too (just a cup of olives, but they're so good!)

GF items are clearly marked on the menu, staff was aware of allergy protocols. My favorites are greek salad with chicken kabobs (no pita) and taziki dip with veggies. Everything was packaged separately and marked gluten free. Eat here regularly, no issues!

Ate here for dinner Saturday night. Food was great. Everything was served in to go containers including plastic silverware, which made it hard to eat. Guessing this is from covid and they haven’t give back. Other than that, the lamb was tender and juicy.

I ordered from their website which had a nutrition guide and an allergen menu! I was easily able to see what options were available to me based off of different allergens and sensitivities. I ordered the grilled chicken feast with a side of rice and potatoes and it was absolutely delicious. Great flavor and no pain afterwards!

I have celiac while two of my friends have dairy allergies. The staff was unsure, the menu was unclear, and the orders were Incorrect. (things arriving on top of pita chips and sauces not specified as having gluten after I had asked if they did) and it wasn't until after we were eating that someone brought out the allergen guide. Suffice to say all 3 of us were sick

Yesterday, May 27, 2024 I stopped in because I have celiac disease and have to eat gluten-free. I've been to a different Taziki's in Texas so I knew that this was a safe place to eat. They have a marked menu.

I ordered the most expensive item on the individual meal menu - the $15.99 + tax chargrilled lamb "build your own feast" without the pita bread.

After paying, I was told that they were going to sub gyro meat because they were out of chargrilled lamb. Gyro meat isn't even on the menu for a plate, but a gyro by itself is $11.99 and I paid $15.99. These are not comparable priced menu items.

The amount of gyro meat was chintzy for what I paid and I felt cheated. They also didn't include any Greek peppers, cucumber or olives on the salad or tzatziki sauce with my meal.

No refund or extra potatoes to make up for the big price discrepancy were offered. I used my water cup to get a single cup of unsweetened tea to-go because I paid for it in the more expensive meal that I paid for but didn't receive.

This location needs more training on what to do if they're out of the most expensive items after the customer has already paid.

Visited May 2024.

The staff were knowledgeable about which foods were safe for me to eat, and every bit was delicious! They were also able to accommodate my dairy-free and vegetarian friends.

Gluten free items market on menus. Need to make the staff understand that they need to change their gloves to avoid cross contamination.

I have eaten at many locations with out issues

I wasn't expecting to feel compelled to write such a good review on a chain, but this location is great. I don't feel super comfortable eating anywhere in this area and the food I've gotten at this tazikis on two occasions was both delicious and I felt safe - the staff was very friendly and answered my many questions about allergens (gluten dairy soy) and I was able to eat well, tasty food and didn't get sick. they were very patient and I was really impressed. this location was waaaaaaayyyy better than one that I've eaten at in knoxville.
