I was really happy to find this place. (Thanks, FMGF!). Almost the entire menu was GF. In fact, the menu is the reverse of normal - they only put a “G” on the menu if it DOES have gluten. All of the soy sauce is GF (they don’t have the gluten style at all).

The sushi and sashimi and miso soup were all excellent. Some of the best sushi I’ve had in awhile. It was great!

Side note: I asked the waiter about the tempura and he wasn’t certain whether the fryer is 100% GF so I skipped it. But I kinda felt like it actually was GF and guessed he was new and just being careful, so I’d ask if you go and want Tempura. I actually appreciated that if anything her erred on the safety side of things.

The food was incredible, most items on the menu were gluten free and the items that aren’t are prepared on separate surfaces. I was so impressed with the food and service.

Seems to be a very safe restaurant with only a few items having gluten with very little risk of cross contamination. I had various signature sushi offerings and they were delicious!

We enjoyed our experience here. Great drinks and most of the menu was gluten free. They use Tamari instead of soy sauce. The server was very open and asked specifically about our dietary needs, and was happy to let us know most of the menu is GF. We’ll be back to try some more items!

One word: Tempura! We love this place because sushi has been my favorite since before celiac. Incredibly safe, very well versed in celiac, and yum yum! Is a bit pricey, but it’s worth it.

I’m obsessed with this place. Everything on the menu is gluten free with the exception of the burger. I hadn’t had gluten free tempura in years! So good and staff is all super knowledgeable. All sauces are gf as well! Lots of great appetizers and specialty rolls.

What an amazing place for those with CD. Safe tempura and fabulously creative rolls. Nearly all is GF except a burger and beers. The table soy sauce is GF Tamari. Everything was delicious and safe. We love the Crispy Rice and the shrimp tempura rolls. We can't get enough of this place.

The entire menu is gluten-free other than two hamburgers which are marked that they have gluten. Amazing gluten-free selection that includes vegetable tempura, sushi, bowls, and many more items, see the attached menu. The restaurant is on the more expensive side, but as far as taste and gluten free they’re excellent. The soy sauce on the table is already gluten-free.

Service is good, and all of their food except their burgers is gluten free! Tempura batter and all sauces included! It reminds me of the days when it didn't matter if I didn't know what something was. Wish the cocktail menu were less whiskey-based, but otherwise excellent experience.

The entire sushi menu is gluten free including the tempura. The soy sauce on the table is actually tamari. The only gluten is in the hamburger and the beers. It was so great to go to a sushi restaurant and not worry about the food. And the restaurant specializes in sustainable seafood. Will definitely be back!

Edit 4/2024 They have changed (and improved) their menu. They still have only a few items that are not gluten free, but the new menu ADDS a gluten containing item in the sockeye salmon nigiri yakumi style. This is used in a couple additional items so be careful of the sockeye salmon nigiri!!

Original review Awesome place. Everything but 2 items (both buns) is gluten free. Safe fryer. Safe desserts. And really good and fresh sushi. Highly recommend.

Only items marked with G have gluten and everything else is GF including the tempura. So nice to pick just about anything on the menu and not have to go through with a fine toothed comb. Also just tamari sauce, no soy. Food was delicious. Had a bunch of special rolls and cauliflower starter. Didn’t get sick!
