had the best experience at Japanese BBQ! The menu is very clearly labelled with everything that is gluten-free, their sauces are house made and are also gluten-free and labelled. I would say 95% of the meat is gluten-free. I don't eat beef or pork but they had lots of chicken and shrimp options, the rice is gluten-free, as well as a ton of appetizers! It was an overall awesome experience. The vodka is absolute vodka and is not gluten-free so do you not have any mixed drinks with vodka in it but their alcoholic beverages are fantastic!! I would recommend the lychee Mojito to anyone!
Japanese BBQ place, has a ton of GF options! (All labelled on their menu). They make their own sauces, which are all gluten free. We ordered the “Value Course” for 2 people, only one of the items wasn’t gluten free (Sukiyaki Kalbi) so they exchanged it for the sirloin. You cook the meat on your table, the grills were all very clean and they even brought a clean new grill half way through the meal so you don’t get burned pieces. I felt confident that they were safe, most knew what Celiac was (except one person who asked if I had my epipen with me 🤦🏼♀) but either way, I would definitely go again!

Surprisingly very safe restaurant!! Almost all the marinades are gluten free and they have several signs about how they did that recently so everyone could enjoy the food. A good chunk of appetizers are also GF. Menu is very clearly labeled. I felt completely fine after eating here and will be back!
Was mentioned on social media but wasn’t on FMGF
I have been to several Korean BBQ restaurants and this one was disappointing. To start, the server was training a new server and both were very new and not well informed. The “experienced” server did not know the menu well and appeared very confused. The server did not have any knowledge about gluten free safety or foods. We went with 5 people and went with the 4 person meal. This does not include rice or vegetables which is a first at a BBQ. The salad and kimchi were good which are gluten free. I was afraid to eat here. Meat was thin cut and small. Over priced for what you get. This is not your traditional Korean BBQ. We will not go back.
Menu is clearly labeled with what is gluten free. Almost every marinade/meat is gluten free which is great. A lot of the appetizers aren't gf, but if you're mostly going for the meats then it isn't a big deal. It's nice that they can change out the grates easily if something does get cross contaminated (but only a risk if you're ordering non gf marinades as well). Waiter was knowledgeable and knew which things were gf. I felt safe eating here.
This was incredible. Ate here a few months ago and only now just remembering to post about it- but what a TREAT. Server was super knowledgeable and reiterated many things I could and couldn’t eat every time she put something on the table for my group.
She did so well until we got to the smores section of the evening where she proclaimed she wasn’t sure if those were safe 😂 I was like yeah no definitely not.
But alas, even her questionable knowledge proved 95% impressive
