it was super duper good, but just wayyy too expensive. most of the items marked gluten free on the menu were not gluten free, luckily our server was able to let us know. I went because I had head of gf dumplings, but they only had vegetarian gf dumplings that were okay, but not worth $9 for 3 dumplings. I was hoping for pork dumplings or something. Overall, too overpriced and not enough gf options, even though the few they had were super tasty. I would come back if it wasn’t so expensive ($94 for two people! no drinks!)

Excellent food and the staff appears knowledgeable about the importance of gluten free for celiacs. Gluten free soy sauce is available per a note on the menu. I had the Vegetarian Five Crops Rice with Egg. It was very good and no adverse effects. One thing to note here is that there are symbols on the menu for allergens. On most other menus, the symbol means safe from those allergens, but here it means the menu item contains the allergens, so read the menu carefully.

Gluten free dumplings! Great experience eating here had a huge feast with no issues. They have gluten free soy sauce and waiter knew how to help. A couple of items that said gluten free on the menu were not really gluten free but the waiter pointed those out. Looking forward to eating here more.
