One of my favorite places to eat GF 🩷 The only gluten they have there is the bun on the burger - they only have tamari sauce no soy sauce used. AMAZING. Couldn’t recommend more 🍣🧡

Favorites: The Circle Garden of Eden Green Machine Friday the 13th

Edited August 21st 2020. So it turns out they are using imitation crab. I don't know if that's a covid-19 or if that's an always thing but be careful of the crab. Maybe they will lose the attitude when we ask about gluten-free items now. So disappointed. Celiacs beware!! I'm so sad. I have celiac disease and with that am very limited to what I can eat. Bamboo has always been very good about telling customers about gluten in their food. Usually it's very safe, as they assure us it is. So much so we eat here at least once a week. We happen to eat there last night (June 7th, 2020). It was all I wanted after a 3 day fast. We ordered the rolls we always do, the ones we know are safe. I started getting sick within 30 minutes of finishing dinner. I haven't had this bad of a reaction in a very long time, which means I ingested a considerable amount of gluten. If you don't have any dietary restrictions with gluten please enjoy it, the food is absolutely amazing. If you are Celiac however please really consider whether or not to eat here. ❤

This was so delicious. Definately not your usual sushi choices. And I was so excited to find out that most everything is gluten free. They have only the items with gluten marked on the menu. We tried nigiri that was dressed with different seasonings. Not like anything we'd had before, we were slightly leary, but it was very good. The tempura green bean roll was delicious with tuna on it. We will definately be back when visiting Portland again!! Plus they were so responsive to my allergy needs it was really great!! Very This was so delicious. Definately not your usual sushi choices.

We frequent this place! They've made all their sauces gluten free. I hope they make an egg free Mayo option next.

They updated their menu this summer and some of my favorite options aren't on there anymore. If they have the ingredients they can still make some though.

This staff and location is my favorite of all the bamboo locations, they know the menu and allergens and take care of you.

I have Celiac and the staff clearly told me what I could have off the gluten free menu. No reaction. Please note any gluten free dish with fried ingredients (tempura) shares a fryer with gluten dishes so NOT Celiac safe. Highly recommend the fresh salmon rolls and the scallop rolls.

Very good, and I felt very safe eating here. They do mix imitation crab in with the real crab for their rolls which was disappointing considering the price. But the tempura was so good and the fish was so fresh and buttery soft.

This place is AMAZING. Pretty much everything on the menu is GF. All the sauces are safe. I was able to eat tempura for the first time in years. In addition to feeling safe eating here the food was so delicious. 10/10 would recommend.
