The tacos on corn tortillas were delish, and the sushi was fresh but not amazing amazing. It’s a very loud restaurant and they don’t have a dedicated gluten free fryer so don’t order any chips. I

I had a good experience here! Just went for small dishes / apps with friends. I only got sushi but waiter ensured sushi was prepared safely and in a separate area. Also had tamari. Sort of expensive but expected in the city. I’d go back!

Had a great experience. They have tito’s so I got a moscow mule with that. Food wise I got the beef tacos with a corn tortilla and it was amazing. The waiter also made sure to tell the kitchen about my celiac. Overall great experience. I didn’t bother ordering anything else because all the reviews say they have a shared fryer. But some sushi rolls were GF

Many items on the menu are marked gluten free, but are cooked in a shared fryer so they are actually NOT gluten free. Thankfully our waiter was very knowledgeable and was able to advise me on what to/not to order. Basically just don't order anything fried.

Review
Our waitress was super friendly and knowledgeable about celiac. They offered to grill the chicken for my tacos rather than fry it in the fryer and brought gluten free soy sauce for the sushi. Everything tasted delicious!

Review
I have Celiac and I am SUPER sensitive, they brought me guac and corn tortillas (chips are fried in a gluten containing fryer) and the waitress was very knowledgeable about which rolls and meals could be made gluten free. I had the beef and shrimp tacos, and they made my boyfriends Rainbow and Mesu roll gluten free so I could have some! Didn’t get sick and the food was really good!!
