Ama Ama Restaurant

Ate here for dinner last night! Just had the salt crusted baked potato and garlic asparagus as I wasn’t that hungry but WOW. Amazing food! Felt safe eating it as the waiter told me he’s going to take care of my allergies!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

All of our meals at Disney have been great & our daughter has had several options but tonight she was beyond excited because they had a vegan brownie that was gluten free & dairy free shaped like Mickey Mouse!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Disney does a great job of ensuring everything is safe and the kitchen is aware. We felt very comfortable and knew our food was being handled properly to avoid cross contamination.

Steak and seafood really, best options. Most sauces were okay to order and the side dishes. Server was helpful to go through what items were safe and not safe.

We stayed at Aulani and felt that this restaurant was the best option for GF at the resort. The hostess and servers handled my husband's allergies very well. They were extremely knowledgeable and walked us item by item through the menu. They offered to have the Chef come out and talk with us but we declined. They put us at ease and made our meals to perfection. It was VERY expensive, but worth it. Night 1 we had the Filet Mignon with brussel sprouts and the Lamb Chops with Mash and veggies. The flourless choc lava cake was amazing! Night 2 we had the Filet Mignon again with Lobster tail and Island Green Salad and same dessert. They came out with Allergy sticks in the food/on the plate and my husband had no reaction at all. Again, VERY pricey but worth it and no cross contamination issues. Thank you Ama Ama and Aulani!

I went here for breakfast and dinner it was so great! I was not even a guest at the resort but I came because I knew they would have delicious options for me. For breakfast the chef came out and talked to me, and I also was given an allergy menu. I had an omelette and Ama Ama potatoes and it was so good. I came back a few days later for dinner and had the filet mignon and three potato puree. My server for dinner was so knowledgeable, knew everything I could or couldnt have. Would highly recommend if you are on the island and want a good, filling, safe meal.

Celiac friendly?

Loved our breakfast and dinner here. They ask if anyone in your party has any food allergies when you check in. They had allergy-friendly menus for breakfast and lunch, but not for dinner. Servers were very knowledgeable and the food was delicious.

I had an awesome dinner here. The tomato salad was delicious and the scallops perfectly prepared. My husband, who does not have Celiac, ordered the Hamachi fish of the day GF so that I could taste it. It, too was terrific. We shared the coconut rice which was delicious. We passed on dessert because we were so full! Cheyenne, our server was very knowledgeable and attentive. This restaurant is more expensive, but the quality of the food and service made it worthwhile to us!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent! Excellent! Ate here 3 times during our stay here and couldn't be happier with the quality of the food. Servers were very educated about cross contamination and the chef came out each time to discuss options with me based on my multiple Intolerances as well as celiac. If you send an email with your booking giving details of your needs it is kept on their system and they are prepared for you.

Gluten free bread is amazing!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

It was pretty decent food. I had a salad with added grilled chicken and french fries. Salad was amazing with the papaya seed dressing, chicken was little dry and over cooked. the fries are fried in a seperate fryer, which I was excited about, but the fries were just ok! but all in all, pretty good.

The Dinner food was fabulous - for us non GF folks. For the GF kids in our party - the server offered 2 options for dinner - short ribs or chicken. They wanted neither. After some probing of our server, he was willing to see if chef maybe had some GF pasta (which he did). Kids had gf pasta and sauce. The chef did NOT come to our table like we are used to at wonderful Disney restaurants. They seem to have a lot more GF options for adults - but adult prices. My meal was $47 and certainly was not the most expensive. Breakfast was a little better - kids were able to get GF pancakes, bacon, hash browns and eggs. The breakfast chef did not come out but the server was willing to run back and forth asking options and answering our questions.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

All I can say is WOW!! The Chef did come out and customized our meals to accommodate GF/SF/DF/EF meals for us & our two kids. If we return to the island we will be coming back. Highly recommended.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Server was outstanding and very knowledgeable about gluten free options. The gluten free bread was good and sweet potato fries they made fresh just for me!

Chef Patrick personally came to out table to help find me something to eat. They had gluten free bread for Kalua Pork Sandwiches and lettuce wrapped fish tacos.
