It was nice to see they have gluten free menu items! It was packaged ok. Didn’t reveive napkins or chopsticks or a spoon which made it difficult to eat. Wasn’t amazing. Seemed so so. I got the mango crab roll and the shrimp noodle soup. I appreciated the gluten free selections immensely though!

Walked in after reading their menu posted outside. Let the server know I have Celiac Disease and she acknowledged. Ordered the Sakura Blossom and Negitoro Rolls. Was quiet because it was early and the food came out quickly. Gluten-free soy sauce and freshly grated wasabi provided. I usually avoid brown rice but surprisingly both rolls were amazing.

Ordered takeout online with someone who is not gf. Noted items that needed to be gf and said it was for a celiac, they boxed non-gf items in with gluten containing items and wrote on the box that that item couldn’t be made gf. Made me a bit concerned about the rest of the food, but I did not get sick and they gave gf soy sauce. Just be careful when ordering take out and ask for separate containers

I’ve eaten here lots, and it’s my go to for gluten free sushi. Don’t be deterred by the brown rice- it’s actually very good and unlike any other brown rice sushi I’ve had . They have gluten free specialty rolls, which is always nice. I feel very confident eating here!

Very good sushi and friendly staff. They have an organic/healthy vibe...all rolls are served with brown rice, and they also cater to vegetarians. Gluten free menu items are clearly marked, and they will bring you your own bowl of gluten free soy sauce. I had the Spicy Salmon Roll, Negitoro Roll (tuna belly), and California Roll (with real crab). All were very fresh and yummy. They were all pretty simple and straight forward, so if you’re looking for some crazy combinations, this is probably not the place. All in all I would go there again.

Great atmosphere. Place was very busy but they got our takeout order done in 20 minutes. The sushi platter was excellent! Note that the address is 965, not 985.

Awesome service with real Japanese servers and food. The wait staff give you a separate soy sauce and the menu has clearly marked items w GF. I tried hijiki which is room-temp chickpeas w spiky brown seaweed. Mild in flavor. I also had a tuna roll and a salmon roll that come with organic brown rice inside. The rolls are cheap $3 and small. We also had steamed edamame. My hubby who eats gluten had chicken n rice. I posted pics. The restaurant is small, but I'll be back.
