Wow! A Japanese restaurant with a large selection of GF items that are clearly labeled. I had the Moonraker sushi roll and the crispy calamari. How could I resist the chance for calamari it is so hard to find GF calamari and theirs was amazing and the portion was very large even came with a side salad. The Moonraker roll was savory and spicy and no worries of contamination. They even had GF soy sauce packets. I would highly recommend them anytime you are in capitol hill.
Beautiful restaurant. Lots of great gluten free options. The sushi was so incredible I couldn’t believe it. For sure the best rainbow roll ive ever had in my life and its not even close. Would love to go back. Wonderful spot.
Momiji is a DELICIOUS sushi restaurant that offers GF soy sauce (tamari) and has many items on the menu that are already GF. The menu is clearly marked for GF. The MUST HAVE roll is the "Moonraker". I also frequently order Three Kings, Hottie Roll and Spicy Rainbow.
Aesthetically, it is a really cute date or gathering place. I love the high tops in the bar area, and they also have a courtyard style garden space that you can see from the inside of the restaurant. Staff are friendly and knowledgable about GF. There are also quite a few Sakes on the menu that meet GF standards for Celiac that you can enjoy! (The staff won't know how to advise you on that however, so always do your own research when it comes to Sake).
Lots of GF options clearly labeled on the menu. There’s gf calamari! I was so excited; I hadn’t had that in years. I didn’t ask any questions in regards to safety/cross-contamination but I’ve never gotten here.
Too expensive for what little you get. Safe as far as gf, but taste and experience were "meh". Made a reservation, but a non-reservation walk-in couple was seated before we were. No drinks besides alcohol or water. Calamari was chewy. Halibut cheeks were delicious. Four Kings wasn't too bad but not great. Philadelphia roll was good, but it's a very basic, plain roll; it's my favorite anywhere. Waitstaff were very pleasant. Spent $100 and was hungry afterwards.
Great food, knowledgeable staff, and very accommodating. Clearly marked GF menu items, and they will also bring you gluten free tamari. I had the miso, black cod and the Moonraker roll - all were so delicious.
Also check out Bamboo in the U District with an almost entirely GF menu (!) and Umi Sake House downtown for lots of GF options
This is my go to sushi restaurant! Make sure you tell them it’s a serious allergy (I know celiac isn’t an allergy technically but that gets you farther usually). Most of the time the servers understand celiac but if they don’t you can ask for one of the bartenders and they get it.
Incredible sushi in a beautiful, romantic atmosphere. When I told the server I was gf she immediately brought out some tamari for me. Items are marked gf on the menu (beware, they mark some fried items gf but the fryer is not dedicated and therefore not safe for celiacs. This is a pet peeve of mine…) but there were plenty of options, even minus the fryer cross contaminated offerings. We shared the halibut cheeks (pan fried), lots of sashimi, the moon raker roll, and the panda roll. All delicious!! A perfect date night spot.
Thank you Momiji for adding the best GF menu I’ve ever seen. Black printed items are a no go for celiacs. Blue printed items can be modified to become gf and they clearly state how they do so. Red printed items are 100% gf as is! Plus their food is fabulous and the ambiance is spectacular. I highly recommend Momiji to anyone needing a GF menu on a special occasion!
