Have eaten here several times and no issues. As others have mentioned, no dedicated fryer. When I ate at the restaurant the server pointed out the fryer issue after I identified as celiac. She also steered me away from certain sushi choices that are modified and just not as good gf. Much appreciated! Overall, several dishes are made properly gluten free with decent variety.

This place is good just keep in mine the fried items on their GF menu are not actually gluten free since they dont have a dedicated fryer. Their in store menu said "gluten free" beside these items but their online menu said "gluten friendly" beside the fried items. Otherwise there are many options and they took great care to ensure the food was prepared safely.

Unfortunately I found out the hard way that they do not have a dedicated fryer 😔😪 Food was so tasty but so damaging because of cross contamination in the fryer.

Was very dissapointed with the sushi. I specifically made sure to let them know that no tempura could be near my rolls and the waitress ensured me it would be cleaned and nevertheless I found small bits of tempura in my sushi and the waitress didn't seem to care. I do not recommend this place for celiacs.
