Tal's Hummus
Celiac Safety Score
Tal's Hummus brings a lively taste of Israel to New Orleans, and for gluten-free folks, there’s genuine excitement around their gluten-free flatbread and shawarma platters. Still, if you’re celiac, here’s the thing: there’s no dedicated gluten-free kitchen, and staff knowledge about cross-contamination seems hit or miss—sometimes you get someone who knows their stuff, other times not so much. Some diners have praised the gluten awareness and even mentioned a separate fryer for fries, but others have been directly advised not to risk it if you’re highly sensitive. Honestly, while there are solid options here, the lack of consistent protocols means it’s best suited for those with lower sensitivity or who can ask a lot of questions without feeling like a bother.
