Review


Just finished an amazingly delicious lunch here. The waitress was immensely knowledgeable about gluten free and the need to watch for cross contamination. The waitress automatically told me how she would be switching out the seaweed wrap for a soy wrap because when she called the manufacturer of the seaweed wrap previously they couldn't confirm it was gluten free. She mentioned that even though it should be safe, she didn't want me to risk it. She also mentioned that she knew that people who have gluten issues also have dairy issues and knew to warn me about dairy. And knew to tell me to watch out for the immitation crap meat. They were truly amazing hosts and will be a new favorite of ours. We got the Miami roll, cucumber avocado, Philadelphia roll, and spicy tuna roll. They also can do many of their dishes gluten free. If you've been thinking about it... go!!
