Red Salt

Best celiac dining experience on the island. After mixed reviews here, I called the restaurant before going. The head chef took my call, he flagged my reservation in their system, and asked me to notify my server when I arrived so kitchen staff could set up a separate prep station. Server was extremely knowledgeable about gluten and cross contamination. Chef delivered my food personally. Excellent food, excellent service, there was even gluten free bread!

Sushi items are marked gluten free, but are NOT gluten free. I asked the waiter to double check with the sushi chef if the rice vinegar used contains barley or wheat. It DOES. Waiter apologized and said he does not know why the sushi items are labeled gluten free. Downright negligent and sloppy on Red Salt's part. Glad I specifically inquired about the vinegar. Stay clear of this place, they do not understand gluten at all.

It was Celiac friendly, plenty of options. No GF bread before as some have mentioned. I was told this was the best restaurant on the island, and I chose the Mahi which did not need to be modified to be GF. It was BORING. Bland and tasteless...for $42. There are way better meals on this island for that!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They were extremely accommodating, even with a menu already labeled with what was GF. Any of the steaks and the pork chop were also able to be done GF, and the waiter explained that to us. The GF bread and separate butter with red salt we’re delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We did the tasting menu and immediately they knew and were accommodating to gluten free. They swapped out some toasted gf bread (tasted like Udis or Canyons Bakehouse but glad they had it) and changed one entree for me to a delicious fish dish. The whole time they were in tune and the menu is labeled by gf for dinner.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Went for breakfast. Server had zero understanding of celiac, kept conflating it with dairy allergy. Told me there was nothing I could eat. Really disappointed.

Celiac friendly?

No

Special gluten free bread for me. Wait staff was very careful. Checked with the chef to make sure my choices are clear. Steaks are all gluten free now.

I stayed at the Ko’a Kea hotel and ate at the restaurant many times. They are really nice and knowledgeable about gluten allergies and celiac. I highly recommend! Especially breakfast!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Went for breakfast. Very limited options but surprisingly we could have the Benedict on gluten free toast. Our server was very kind and checked with the kitchen to make sure our meal would be safe. We couldn’t have the potatoes so they brought us some avocado instead. Good meal fair price for the islands. Could have been a little warmer but they were very busy so I understand. Jenny our waitress was fantastic and friendly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We loved this place and went again the next day. I had coconut shrimp, shrimp coconut bisque, and a mahi dish. All were excellent. They also had bread and EVERY dessert was gf. We had the red salt cake the first night and the cheesecake tonight. My girlfriend had a tofu entree that she said was the best tofu dish she has ever had. Note that it does contain gluten.

Food here was amazing! Very aware of celiacs. My son & I are both celiacs. There were lots of GF options. I had GF soup which was amazing. They also had GF deserts which were amazing & a real treat!

We went to Red Salt after reading the reviews off of this app. All I can say is you have got to go to this restaurant!!! First of all, I was excited because they would have gluten free bread and options for dinner. They didn't have the bread, BUT, they did make me, personally, a different option made with garbanzo beans(which are my favorite anyway!). You MUST get Brian as your server, very knowledgable and absolutely a perfectionist!!! He knew exactly what I could eat and since I am gluten, dairy and soy free, I am usually VERY limited to my menu options! However, he told me I can have most everything on the menu, gave me the options that I couldn't have, and told me the chef would be able to make me whatever I wanted. Seriously, I felt I was in heaven!! The drinks, appetizers, and dinner were absolutely AMAZING!!!!! This is absolutely a great place if you are gluten free!! Please give this a try!! I am sorry if I sound way too excited but it is so amazing to get an excellent meal that I won't get sick on, and this was one!! By the way, everyone else in my party could eat anything they wanted and their food (as they raved about it) was just as amazing! They said the root beer float/chocolate macadamia nut cookie and the creme brûlée were the absolute best desserts!!!

The chef at Red Salt really understands Gluten free dining. They have gluten free bread to start your meal so you don't feel left out! Gluten free desserts are limited on the menu though, but the chef is awesome and does make an effort to accommodate you!!!
