This place was great. They have a separate GF menu and the server was very knowledgeable about celiac and cross contamination, and was kind enough to remind me which items were GF as they arrived at the table. (I was in a large group that ordered gluten containing dishes as well.) They had tamari. And everything was extremely fresh and delicious!
I was extremely skeptical going to a sushi restaurant coming from the PNW, but alas, I was CRAVING white rice after feeling like a bottomless abyss from my wild birthday celebrations and way too much BBQ and y’all — this place EXCEEDED any exceptions I had and more. The service was absolutely off the charts phenomenal. The hostess that seated us was pleasant. Our server was incredible, helpful, asked about allergies, got me a separate gluten free menu that labeled vegan, vegetarian and dairy free options, she refilled our water without asking, and split our check without making a request (it was me and my best friend)! We sat at the bar where they made the food in front of us and they had the nicest cook/employees that were catering to us too (and also very attractive to look at lol). I was shocked, SHOCKED y’all at how fresh and tasty the cucumber roll I got was and how heavenly the rice tasted. Even my non-gluten free friend was amazed and loved her Ube desert! I will literally come back to Austin just to come back here. I am still drooling over and dreaming of the freshness of the ingredients and how scrumptious it was; and the service absolutely topped it off to make this an exceptional experience. My only regret is not taking photos to share, but this review will have to do to make sure others try out this gem! Thank you!

Yum! Everything was so good and fresh. They have a separate menu that marks what is gf and what is gf but subject to cc for those who may be intolerant & not celiac. Separate gf soy sauce was provided and each time they brought a dish for me they mentioned it was gf. Can’t wait to go back!
A fantastic sushi restaurant with tons of gluten free options.
Absolutely amazing staff and food. I was given my own separate menu and soy sauce. The waiter checked and made sure everything I ate was gluten free. This restaurant has put all other sushi to shame as truly their is no better place than fukumotos.
They made sure to give me Tamari sauce and made everything carefully and avoiding gluten items. Their fish is so fresh and their Yakitori options are pretty extensive, pork belly, king salmon, snail... all delicious and zero reactions.
