Tanpopo Ramen and Sake Bar

Do not go here! I was very clear that I needed the gluten free rice noodles. I also double checked when they brought the food out that mine was the gluten free one and they confirmed it was. It was not. I could not have been clearer about my needs and they didn’t listen. Not a safe restaurant for celiacs. Also the ramen didn’t even taste that good.

I had the chicken ramen with rice noodles and an order of the edamame. Waitress assured me the broth and the dish was gluten free. Delicious,big portion, and I didn’t experience any symptoms after!

I informed the staff of my gluten free status, and ordered a tonkatsu taken bowl, with rice noodles and no fish cake. The order was all correct and I had no reaction afterward :-)

As for the food, they have some of the best ramen broths I've had. The tonkatsu was rich, complex, and everything I wanted in the cold months. The servings are huge and typically yield enough food to bring home!

Celiac friendly?

Yes
