Kona Grill doesn't have any gluten free options any longer. They used to be one of my favorite places because they had an easy menu to figure out but they don't support the gluten free folks anymore.

Ordered a GF labeled meal and made sure to say it was “gluten free allergy”. The server came back and said that part of the meal(the side)would have to be changed out due to the sauce and replaced with white rice. While I am definitely glad they came and told me I was a bit confused as to why it was GF labeled on the menu and shared that with the server who did not really get it or care. I did not get sick from the meal which is good. So beware when eating there that things labeled are not accurate

Kona recently updated their menu offerings and now have less gluten free options - just edamame, one salad option, jambalaya, and a couple sushi options. They are willing to make some of their old sushi options if you ask, but are now more limited than they used to be in what they offer.

Servers are very aware of all food allergies. Never had any issues in several meals. Last one stood out as exceptional, however. My daughter is both celiac and has a peanut allergy; on our last visit the server ensured the kitchen used dedicated workstations and were very communicative, telling us what was being done along the way. Will definitely return!

Absolutely amazing customer service, extremely celiac-conscious and outstanding gluten-free food! They also prepare all gluten-free meals in a completely separate kitchen... I have never gotten sick after eating here. My favorite place to go :)

Kona Grill is a fantastic dining spot that goes above and beyond in catering to guests with gluten-free dietary needs. During my recent visit, I was impressed by their attentive staff who were extremely helpful in guiding me towards gluten-free options on the menu. What stood out to me the most was the clear labeling of gluten-free items, making it easy for me to make informed choices. The overall experience at Kona Grill was delightful, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a restaurant that prioritizes dietary preferences without compromising on taste and quality.

Not a ton of options (1 app, 2 salads, 1 entree, 2 sushi rolls, 1 dessert) but everything is marked, the server was conscientious and double-checked things, the chicken and rice were a fun new flavor combo for me, and I had no issues.

Fun restaurant with a large menu, however there are only 5 gluten free options. Won’t be coming back. We had a reservation for the patio and were seated in an extremely sunny spot. They were unwilling to close the window next to us to provide a protection from the blaring sun. Loud music and large drink menu if that’s your thing.
