Do not eat here if celiac. Menu used to have alot of gf choices; now has few-wedge salad, miso soup, 1 fish, 1meat. Received many assurances from waiter about how seriously kitchen takes food allergies, and how i really should only order from the few items marked gf in menu as those had been thoroughly vetted. I had doubts about ingredients and voiced my doubts. Waiter double checked w chef. I ordered as advised. Really sorry i went. Got sick badly and i never get sick. Had to be major gross contamination. DO NOT GO.

We had a wonderful experience. It’s definitely more Hawaiian style, not Japanese. They have clearly marked plates for gluten free (embossed flowers on them). Service was amazing. Views were amazing and most importantly, FOOD WAS AMAZING. I had the scallops and honey mustard braised ribs.

Excellent experience. 3 of the 8 dinner guests were Celiac and we all left extremely happy. Our waiter (James) was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to make sure our meals were safe. No specific Gluten Free menu, but the our wait staff took the time to talk to each guest about the dishes we were interested in and the kitchen was willing to accommodate. The kitchen was able to prepare several of the menu items so that they were safe. The ribeye and chocolate soufflé were “the best” GF food we have had in a long time.

Ate here twice on my trip. first night the server was very thorough and knowledgeable but second waiter seemed less sure about what was safe. Was told to just pick a protein, a starch, and a vegetable and they could make whatever I wanted, mix and match the components of the menu items. Was then told that the short ribs (minus one sauce) and the butterfish were the easiest menu options to make gf. Food was delicious both times
