My celiac mother and I ate here and didn’t have a reaction. We got some maki rolls. They had GF soy sauce and our waiter was happy to check in with the chef when we had questions. The fish was very fresh tasting. The only negative part of our experience was the wait time. The restaurant was very busy when we were dining and it took a long time to get our meal and the soup our table ordered was forgotten and later brought out after our meal.

One of the few places in Waikiki/Honolulu that understand and appreciate gluten issues. Server was knowledgeable about gluten, they had a GF menu, and checked with kitchen on anything they weren’t confident on. Good selection of items and excellent GF sushi rolls and apps! They even have tamari. Cocktails were perfect as well.

I went here twice while I was in Hawaii. They have a separate GF menu with a variety of options and the staff is knowledgeable. I loved the sushi rolls and got the miso soup one night too.

This spot is so great! We got a cute table outside for sunset and it was gorgeous! They also have a whole GF menu, GF soy sauce, and the server was extremely knowledgeable, she even was able to tell me about what could be modified to be GF on the specials menu! Location can be tricky if going by Google maps - it’s on the 3rd floor of the Marriott. Highly recommend!

So good we ate here twice during vacation

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Such great sushi! They have a gluten free menu available on request, and the sushi chef we had worked with us to find things both my non-celiac husband and I would like. They even brought gluten free soy sauce without me having to ask for it. Wonderful service! Will definitely be going again!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly?

Totally separate gluten free menu and knowledgeable staff. Had this place twice and didn't get sick. Highly recommend for Celiac's!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was knowledgeable about Celiac and gluten concerns, and gluten-free tamari was available.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The sushi was fantastic! Lots of GF options to choose from. Server was knowledgeable about gluten.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was very helpful with recommendations. Have GF tamari that was specifically brought out and a GF menu. I'm pretty sensitive and had no problems. Rolls were good, but not outstanding.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was very aware and knowledgeable about the gluten content of foods. There is a separate GF menu, and they brought a bottle of GF soy sauce to our table. The miso soup was not on the GF menu but they confirmed it was GF also. As a vegan, my choices were limited, but I still tried 2 appetizers and several veggie rolls.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Fabulous! Excellent sushi with a range of options. Informed staff and they have gf tamari and a separate menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Only ding is on the number sushi options. Sushi had a few different varieties of tuna, all similar to one another, only a couple options outside of tuna.

Food was really good and staff was 100% on board.

You could tell our kids non-GF meals were amazing and if it represented their adult non-GF options, I’m sure the rest of what they have to offer is tasty as well.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Awesome to have real sushi again. After 10 on fridays and Saturdays (not sure about weekdays) they have half off sushi so that would be my advice. Ate here twice and didn't get sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Separate GF menu. Staff was knowledgeable and accommodating to my celiac. The meal was absolutely worth the price.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was definitely Celiac friendly and our waitress was very informed about what I could have. The only downside was unless you are getting sushi there are only a couple other entrees and appetizers available. I was pregnant so I didn't have many options in the sushi department and I LOVE sushi! Food was good and safe!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was very knowledgeable about gluten free offerings and even had a separate menu. I came solely for sushi rolls (x two nights!). They don't have g-free soy sauce on the table, but immediately brought out tamari sauce when you tell them you are g-free. I will always visit here when I am in town and you should too!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place was awesome. We had to eat at the bar because it was Christmas eve and really full. Despite that, they perfectly handled our gluten and shellfish allergies, were super nice, and made really great good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

super staff and knew all about gluten free. food was terrific

Everyone took this seriously- separate menu. They went out of their way to keep us allergy safe. Plenty of sushi choices. Loved the mango crab sushi. We tried 2 sakis - liked the sweeter better than the drier. Definitely recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Waitress was awesome. She was so helpful. The sushi was amazing, but beware. The portions were so small! Gluten free sushi was good and did not make me sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly?

Excellent options for GF sushi and sashimi. Knowledgeable chefs and servers.

We sat at the bar at DK steakhouse and was able to order from both Sansei and DK. Great service, GF menus, best dinner of the trip, and my new favorite.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The best sushi I've ever had. Yum! The gluten free menu is limited tho. I had the Sansei dragonfly sushi. Mmmmmmm

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The sushi is always fresh and delicious. The staff know how to prepare entrees safely for someone with Celiac. The bartender offered to make my martini with gluten free vodka which was a nice bonus.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Lots of sushi and non-sushi options!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

As soon as we arrived at the restaurant I was reassured that I would be safe eating here with Celiac. While we waited for a table the hostess made sure that the sushi bar was cleaned for us to avoid cross contamination. Our sushi chef was very good about showing us ingredients, I feel he went above and beyond. I cannot recommend this place enough!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Genetic Celiac disease. Great food. The sushi chef Clark and the staff was so accommodating. I would recommend this place to anyone with Celiac or following a gluten free diet. Full gluten free menu. Made changes as needed to ensure fully gluten free dishes. Can't wait to come back. The miso-yaki chicken is AMAZING!!! (they typically grill it but to ensure no cross contamination they baked it). Eat here!

It was good,but the service was slow. I think Yuzu was just as good and less expensive.

Great gluten free selection.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Separate menu and the can exclude other things if you have more allergies. Really great sushi!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I didn't even know this place was Gf until I mentioned I needed gf to the waiter. He immediately ran off and came back with a dedicated gluten free menu and some amazing Gf soy sauce. They were very attentive and were knowledgeable about Gf needs and made me feel comfortable with what I ordered. I didn't try the "Gf beer" on the menu but they do have Angry Orchard ciders and a lot of other drinks. Overall a GREAT dining experience, especially for our last night in Hawaii. Good food for other family members that may not be gf as well!
