I was hopeful after the reviews. The soup that I was assured would be GF by the manager looking individual had bread onions in it.

Then I received my stir fry. Too salty. But that’s not the worst of it. I had to pick a piece of lomaine out of my fried rice.

My son (no gluten needs) and I had lunch here today. It was amazing! Our waiter was great with answering questions and taught my son how to quickly use chopsticks. I got sushi with tamari that was delicious and he got fried rice and beef lo mein that he raved about. It’s 40 minutes from our house, but we will make the trip again.

Symptomatic Celiac

Do not sleep on this establishment! We brought an insanely large party (like 40 people) in for a hibachi dinner where ~25% of the individuals had either Celiac or a gluten intolerance (in addition to other food allergies). They knocked it out of the park! They knew to offer miso instead of the onion soup, salads came naked, and the hibachi meals were prepared safely in the back and delivered to those who needed it. Best yet - it was DELICIOUS! I could cry it was so flavorful and well prepared. Kids and adults loved it! If I were local, I would frequent this restaurant regularly!

Have been here a couple of times, but most recently for Christmas Eve Hibachi. They will cook your food in the back, safely, and are knowledgeable about substitutions that are necessary. No onion soup, bit they will sub out miso soup, and you can't have the salad unfortunately. Also no dipping sauces are safe. But the food is delicious and I havent gotten sick in my experiences, and I'm a very sensitive celiac.

I’ve ordered out and dined in several times. Each time, I’ve ordered sushi and received GF soy sauce for it. I always order my rolls without any added sauces and no “crunchy” toppings. Always felt good after eating too! Favorite place for sushi!

Very knowledgable about GF and cross contamination. They prepared my child's food in the kitchen because our party was not all GF, and my child was still able to enjoy the habachi entertaiment.

Very impressed with their knowledge and accommodations for GF customers. Ordered food for pick up and everything was labeled and wrapped separately then the rest of the order. Food was tasty and they even subbed miso soup for the hibachi soup which was super nice and tasty. Would highly recommend.

They always accommodate! I am vegan, too, so I usually get steamed veggies and tofu. The staff always remembers me for it 😊 They also have gluten-free soy sauce and I love miso soup and seaweed salad, it's all great!

Were able to accomodate my Celiac and my kids' food allergies by preparing our food separately in the kitchen. Very good and none of us got sick after!

They carry gluten free soy sauce! Very knowledgable. Will cook your habachi separate with gf soy sauce. My second time there and no issues. Very accommodating. Plus the fish is SO fresh and delicious. Also, they will make your sushi with brown rice :)
