They prepped my food in the back so it wouldn’t be contaminated at the main hibachi table. Good teriyaki steak and fried rice. We’ll go back again.

Staff confirmed to us by phone that they have a separate area in the kitchen for preparing food for allergy concerns. When we visited the wait staff had a hard time understanding our concern about gluten and couldn’t answer about the soy sauce, which wasn’t reassuring. Ultimately my daughter had plain rice, vegetables and steak, completely unseasoned. She didn’t get sick at all, but it was fairly unappetizing.

Downright gross restaurant with low standards. Cannot trust them to care about allergies or keeping celiacs safe when the place is so rundown and nasty. Everything from the tables, to plates, to silverware and even the bathroom are just disgusting. The staff was clueless and on their phones, there was no manager on duty either. I didn’t even bother to eat food which didn’t come out as promised, our entire party vowed never to go back.

Pleasantly surprised. They had gluten free soy sauce on hand and took the time to only add sauce (gluten free) to my dish and then fully cooked and removed my food before adding soy sauce to the other customers entrees.

Felt safe and did not get sick. Please make sure you talk to the server at the beginning.

That said, there was a salad they served me that I did not ask about but simply avoided in case it contained gluten.
