Used to come here all the time since they are so amazing with ensuring there is no cross contamination. However they no longer carry the gluten free noodles

Good GF selection! Tell your server you have an allergy... want something from the line, but afraid it might be contaminated? Ask for it from the back, they’ll bring you what you want! They also have a list of GF sauces, but you have to ask for it.

The staff here was amazing attention to every detail making sure my food wasn’t contaminated. Stay away from the pasta section of the Buffett and you have a great new safe place to eat ! They were the most professional and outgoing making me feel like it was my life that really counts !

I have never gotten sick here. Tell then you have an allergy and they give you yellow bowls. This is a must because it alerts the grill cooks right away. They scrape the grill very thoroughly and block off a section to prevent cross contamination. All sauces except one, I believe are GF. They have GF marked on the sauce labels.

(Read entire review) “The manager Abby is AMAZING. She walked me through the steps of how the place works (1st time) and they cleaned the grill (they have a procedure everyone is educated on) and got my ingredients from the back. A chain gem and staple!!!!!!!!!” 2 months later....I only ate huhot in the past 36 hours and I had to leave work because I feel so sick-exhausted, fat in stool, not hungry at all. Just really disappointed...used to go here 2-3 times a week, now I’ll never come back :(

They do a great job cleaning the grill and use fresh utensils. Food is very good! The only reason I didn't give it a 5 is because I wish they had an easier way to determine which dressings are gluten free.

They have great protocols set up for allergies. They were happy to grab fresh bins of ingredients out of the back for us. My only hesitation was that all the sauces were out in one area together. If they had the GF sauces set to one side together, it would definitely have made me feel better. None of us got sick, but next time I will probably ask if there are new sauces in their chill room.

Hi Hot is a great way to fill up if you like stir-fry. They have rice noodles, fresh meats and veggies and lots of sauce options that are gluten free. Everything is labeled with allergen warnings as well as gluten-free. If you let them know you are a gluten-free customer they will clean the grill and generously keep other foods away from yours as it cooks.

They mark your allergies by giving you purple bowls so they stand out for the chefs. I usually stick to just the oils but I believe the sauces are all safe. They clean the grill when they see there's an allergy and they use separate tongs for your food. I've never had a reaction here or left hungry! They will grab rice noodles or toppings from the back if you want!

This place is absolutely AMAZING with gluten free! While most other buffet style restaurants can become cross contaminated very easily, the manager had me go through and write down what I wanted, and prepared it with new containers of food in the back! ALL of their sauces are gf which made me feel so much better. He then alerted the grillers that there was an allergy. He made sure they cleaned the grill super well TWICE. The then used spatulas to block off a section of the grill for my food so no one else’s food would ever get close. They completely changed utensils and most importantly, I did not get sick! They even offered to do it all again if I was still hungry since it was a buffet!
