They recently added Pork Belly and Salmon to their list of gluten free add ons for the (supposedly gluten free) bibimbop. I ordered it with pork belly. The server told me all the little dishes of kimchi were gf except one made from tofu. They served me miso soup, which I did not touch for fear it was made with barley miso. I now have a terrible stomach ache. Either it was a cross reaction from the quinoa in the bowl or something was marinated in wheat containing soy sauce. I appreciate their efforts to offer gf menu items but the servers don’t seem terribly well versed.

They have some but very few gluten free options. A few vegan and vegetarian or egg dishes are gf but NONE of the meat is. All of the meat is marinated in soy sauce. Also their tea is barley based, they do have a corn tea if you let them know u are gluten free. The food is great, there is just not many options here. They are very knowledgeable about what is and isn't gluten free as well.

Great take out. Fresh tasting. Egg was a bit runny-still gel like white part. Will definitely go back.

I had been craving Korean food ever since I was diagnosed celiac and I finally found some that was GF friendly! Their main dish is 'Bibimbop' which isn't exactly fast food korean BBQ... but it's so much better. The mung bean pankcakes are delicious (and vegetarian as an added bonus). It was healthy and tasty and the staff was super friendly.
