They did a good job with my celiac daughter's food. She had blue crab rolls and avocado rolls. They had a separate gf menu and seemed comfortable with providing a safe experience. I didn't ask about kitchen practices, but my daughter had no issues after eating here.

Updated 7/3/21 They are still doing a good job and have a separate gf menu.

Tried this place based on reviews on this app. Restaurant has a gluten free menu and gluten free soy sauce, but server didn’t speak great English so it was difficult to communicate. She said (I think) that they don’t have separate utensils or prep areas but would clean them before. Had a couple of the rolls from the GF menu and some edamame. They were good, but shortly after leaving the restaurant I started having my stomach pains, so obviously there was cross-contamination. If that is something you need to avoid, I wouldn’t recommend it. But otherwise, decent sushi.

The sushi was so creative and amazing. The owner himself brought my food out and reassured me everything even the sauces were gluten free. They have a separate gluten free menu. I absolutely loved it and will be back. B

Ask for the separate GF menu. The most options available out of any other sushi place I’ve been to. They make their spicy tuna and spicy yellowtail and such with tamari instead of soy sauce so there are tons of options. The sushi was excellent. The staff was knowledgeable as well.

Good experience and no issues from the food. I did have to be proactive to ask the chef to take CC precautions, get gf soy sauce, confirm it was GF upon delivery, etc. Just be clear with them about your needs, but the staff were very helpful and seemed generally knowledgeable.

There is a separate GF menu with lots of options.

So thankful for this place bc it’s been a loooong time since I had safe sushi!

I've eaten here many times and NEVER gotten sick or felt that I had been exposed to cross-contamination, and that makes this place among a very rare few.

The food is also fantastic, so this has become my favorite place!

They have a very large section of the menu that can be modified to be gluten free. I’ve eaten here three times and not gotten sick (I’m celiac). The host told me that they take gluten free very seriously and have quite a few customers with celiac.

Fresh sushi and friendly service. A gem of a spot, unassuming and straightforward with quality in the areas that matter most.

They have a separate GF menu with many options both sushi and hot items as well. First place I've. Even that offers GF ponzu sauce in some of the entree items. They also have GF soy sauce for the sushi.

I was remiss and forgot to ask whether the sushi rice is made with malted rice vinegar or not. Imperative to know for Celiac.

Wow! We found this place on GF by me. I have Celiac. The staff is so knowledgeable. Our waitres, Kierra, is amazing. They have a gluten-free menu. I did want to try a Bento box. They were happy to oblige. Instead of the vegetable tempora got extra salad with Gluten-free ponzu on the side! Great service and food.

The sushi was awesome. They have real crab (and fake too). They have a gf menu and even gf ponzu and soy sauces. I order the Blue Cali crab roll and the Sancho. So tasty. The only sad things are none of the happy hour choices are gf and parking is tight.

This is great sushi - really, really fresh fish. I bring my own tamari. They are aware of the risk of cross contamination. They will clean their hands, knife and prep surface before preparing my dish. The fryer is not GF - so tempura is out. I usually get the sashimi, cucumber salad and occasionally the hamachi kama which is just seasoned with salt and cooked in the salamander.
