I've been going to the Tigard Oregon Burgerville for over 2 years now because they have the BEST gluten free bun in the world and because they're always very nice and super appreciative of my business.
If you want a great Gluten Free Burger go to Burgerville.
This place is a hidden gem š the ramens fantastic and super affordable. The bar is comfy and the service is quick. There are limited bar seats so itās probably harder to get sat on the weekends, but the wait is worth it. They also have gluten free noodles which is a big plus!
Revising my earlier review below. Koba management contacted me and explained that they exclusively use GF Tamari sauce on the kitchen to avoid cross contamination with the non GF menu items. Only the little condiment sauces can contain wheat. Therefore the meal I'd ordered was indeed GF. The cashier was new and when she communicated with the cook there was a misunderstanding.
I appreciate Kobas response and detailed explanation. It would be nice if restaurants that specify GF options train their staff to understand exactly what that entails. My rating of service stands...but my confidence in the food is restored.

I enjoy the food here and patronize koba grill because of their GF options. Ordered my usual GF bowl and it was promptly prepared. I asked for the GF condiment sauce...and was informed they made an error in their supply order and didn't have GF sauce. So that prompted me to ask about the bowl I was going to eat. The cook said "not gluten free". I asked for my money back and after some resistance the cashier finally handed my money back.
Koba Grill was careless and irresponsible at the least. Someone with celiac disease can become very sick from ingesting gluten. I don't know if I'll ever return to this establishment.
I love this place. I've had the best sandwiches of my gluten-free existence here. The combination of fresh toasting with great ingredients and good gluten-free bread makes all the difference, and causes me to be willing to pay $17 for a sandwich only.
That said, the last two visits I have been completely unsatisfied as they have been out of gluten-free bread options. They do have a wrap but it's not nearly as satisfying.
It's understandable that an establishment might run out of something, but so far it's two for two. The last visit, the guy taking my order was oddly rude and never told me they were out but rather just served the wrong sandwich bread. Today, she didn't know when taking my order but someone did come out and give me the option of a refund or a wrap. Since I'm hangry by this point, I have to take the wrap option. Knowing that it won't be satisfying and feel overpriced which is my pet peeve with restaurants...There's no way I would pay $17 for a wrap sandwich under regular circumstance.
So while this might have just been bad luck on my part, I hope that they get their inventory for gluten-free back in control and continue to make amazing sandwiches and contribute to the community.
I feel bad leaving anything but 5/5 for a great community establishment. I'll revise if it's better next time, though I'm far less motivated to return now.
I had the BEST experience at Cooper Mountain Ale Works this evening. I am gluten free. Our waiter said that his wife is celiac so we were in good hands. I ordered a gluten free pub Burger with roasted vegetables as a side. (Their house made waffle fries have gluten)
I FRICKIN KID YOU NOT THIS BURGER -- ONE OF THE TOP 3 I'VE HAD IN MY LIFE. Our waiter said that they grind their own fresh hamburger on site. Those patties were š„š„š„. I can't explain. Just SO GOOD. Highly recommend.
Not a lot of gluten-free choices and what I did order had hidden pork in it. Can't eat pork. Service was good, server tried to be helpful with choices.
I recently placed a small catering order for 20 people for a winter ball. I wasn't sure how many people would actually show up but I just wanted small plates and some refreshments. I also had a limited budget, so finding a restaurant that could match my budget was a tall order.
The great greek was so accommodating. They worked with me and helped me find the best items to feed a fluctuating crowd. They had vegan options, vegetarian options and gluten free options. The turn around was so quick as well. I inquired on wednesday, got the call the next day and they were able to deliver and set up the day after.
Thats right I only gave me 2 days to be ready. They even came with plates and utensils for everyone! I was blown away by the portions size as well. We had so much left over because they were so accommodating! And we even had more people that anticipated. Everyone LOVED the food. We even had a non hummus eater, fall in love with it and ask where its from.
Need some small plates for a winter party, give them a call. Launching a new business and want to feed your crowd? Call the great greek, they will be able to provide for you the best deal and amazing food.
