Love this place. Everything on menu is gluten free(except fake crab). No need for separate GF menu. I get Maui Tuna and sometimes edamame.

I loved this place before getting diagnosed, and love it more after. Nice loyalty punch card also.

Would not recommend if you have celiac. Both the menu and the person at the counter said there was only one thing on the menu with gluten. So I ordered something else. A couple hours later it was clear I’d been glutened. I don’t know if they changed the recipe for the Maui Tuna without updating the menu and informing all the staff or what.

The entire menu including the fried chicken is Gluten free. They had tempera crunchies on the side made from rice flour. They seem to understand cross contact practices and change their gloves and used a clean bowl for the poke mixture. They also said that they keep the crab stick, which is the only thing that has gluten, separate from everything else.
