Very accommodating and polite staff, explained what is gluten free and how food is prepared, and even let us try samples before ordering (for flavour and spice preferences). We had a build our own box.

Truly underwhelming on all fronts. Their menu looks amazing. But they were out of some ingredients due to supply chain issues and were unable to answer any questions about what was in the replacement ingredients, which made us wary of ordering those items. Staff seemed really checked out -- I am aware that no one at a restaurant like this is paid enough to care, but it doesn't make for a great experience. One thing my companion ordered was still cooking, so they made my box, but his took almost 15 minutes more to come out. So we didn't even really eat together. Food tasted okay, but I wouldn't go back.

All the bowl makings are gluten free, so I still have a relatively high level of confidence when ordering from here, but I do miss the comfort of when the entire menu was gluten free.

I got one of their boxes and it tasted really good! They mark gluten free items on the menu, their boxes seem to be the easiest thing on the menu to make gluten free. Not sure about their other menu options being gluten free. They also have prepacked gluten free sweets from a dedicated gluten free company.

Server did not know what gluten is and only pointed at the signs that are marked gluten friendly. No effort was done to prevent cross contamination as no gloves were changed, some utensils shared, prep space was shared with gluten-containing foods, and I saw gluten-containing foods would splash into other containers. It just did not feel safe and I did not want to take the risk. I gave away my box to a friend and they said it tasted okay but portions were small for the price. Celiacs should be very cautious here.
