Three options. They even brought the package out to me so I can verify the ingredients.
This place is about making connections and being super polite and advocating for yourself. I went here with 3 gluten eaters. I told the waitress right away that I had celiac and she gave me the allergen menu, she told me her best friend was a celiac too and understood cross contamination. When it came time to grab my ingredients she went to the back for me with the list of items I wanted and grabbed them fresh. They then designated a spot in the grill, wiped it down really well- basically scoured it-and put up barriers so my food wouldn’t mingle with trouble. I did not get sick and it was so yummy!! if you do not advocate for yourself I can see how this restaurant could be trouble, hence the 4 stars.
Yes
Perhaps because I was comparing to BDs Mongolian BBQ, I thought this place was mediocre. I don't like how thin they cut all the meat... It made it taste terrible and I couldn't even pierce the meat with my fork out was so thin. Not impressed.
HuHot does not have a gluten free menu but does have an allergen list and a list of gluten free sauces. Ask them to clean a spot on the grill and use different utensils, if necessary.
Waitress wasn’t as friendly, but the cooks were great. They took a lot of precautions when making my food. However, we could not finish our meals because the restaurant was absolutely filthy. We really wanted to leave but she brought us salads so we felt that would be dining and dashing. The food line was unkept and tables were disgusting, along with dishes.
They've recently redone all their sauces to be gluten free so the only things you need to watch for on the buffet line are the noodles and some of the meats. They did a great job scouring the grill when we told them we had a gluten allergy, marked the spots, scrubbed with extra care, even divided off our section with giant metal bars to prevent any splashing. Ordering from the menu would be trickier but the bar itself was great. You can skip the noodles entirely and just use the rice they bring to the table to avoid any noodle contamination. Great job and really appreciated all the effort they put in!
Menu and separate allergen list. Confusing to cross reference. Then. you have to carry the big allergen list with you as you select your ingredients. Those should be labeled.Then you tell the cooks you need your order Gluten Free. They scrape and scrub a section of the grill, and then partition it off and cook your ingredients. Not good enough for celiacs, they should have a separate grill or a section they can put on top that is dedicated to gluten free only.Wait staff friendly and curteous, and appear to be trained by corporate, but their procedures are not adequate for celiacs or the very sensitive. I will know in less than an hour, but until they improve their procedures, they are not quite there yet.
No
My experience before covid was good. I’m slightly less confident when the employees make my food. Before covid: they gave me a yellow bowl to mark it as a food allergy. When filling the bowl, I could ask them to get ingredients from the back fridge, that way I didn’t need to worry about other guests contaminating the buffet. The cooks would clean the grill off before grilling mine since they saw the yellow bowl.

Food was great, but my husband has celiac and has been sick since yesterday. Definitely not good with cross contamination.

I could not believe the level of care shown by the staff! (One of the cooks there had a family member with celiac) They made sure to clean a section of the grill off extra well and with special cleaning supplies each time I brought food up, and they have dividers to keep your food from accidentally cross-contaminating with other food on the grill. When they accidentally put my food on the regular grill while another cook was preparing a space (not realizing it was mine), they comped my meal. It was just very nice to have so much effort and care put into making me comfortable.

Staff was not helpful at all when I asked about GF options and what I should avoid. Lots of cross contamination, I got very sick after.

I am celiac and have had a bad experience here in the past. However, tonight I let them know what I needed and they were fantastic. They cleaned a spot on the grill and had clean utensils that were only used on my food. They also put up a utensil barrier around my food while it was cooking to keep cc out. It’s now much later and I feel good. I would eat here again.
