izumi Japanese Restaurant

The food was excellent. I was able to get steak and shrimp hibachi for my friend’s birthday, and it was fantastic. Could not have the soup, but they switched the dressing to ranch. Staff marked down order as GF, no questions asked. My original review said I could have it, but another server informed me that he was mistaken (I never got sick though, not sure why because I’m usually VERY sensitive).

Based on the previous comment, I was excited to check this out. I called ahead and was assured it would be safe. When I asked the server about options, she expected me to know? She said I could have the shrimp hibachi but no salad, or soup. When I mentioned the previous comment on here, she said no soups or dressings are gf. She also said no sushi. When I asked if the yum yum sauce is gf, she told me to Google the ingredients. I was appalled! I said googling does me no good, please the chef if it’s gf. She said ummm just don’t eat it and never came back to check on us. Beyond rude and I will not be returning. The food was bland and definitely not worth $22.
