Review


I order here for my kids with celiac and myself about once a month. The gluten free up charges are steep, but here’s why: they import their specially selected GF ramen noodles from Japan. They cost $6 extra. Their broths are all GF except one. They label the choices well but it’s best to talk with staff if confused. They do indicate on their menu that their protein and egg have gluten. AND they have tested them to be under 20ppm. That said, if you are sensitive or celiac, do NOT eat an extra helping of egg or meat. I ate 2 eggs one night with my pork and did have a reaction. - my sister didn’t want her egg, I didn’t think about it. — it was a mild reaction, but yes. And they don’t hide that from anyone. So you just need to order carefully. Otherwise, we have never had a problem. We do all take our GliadinX enzyme with the meal, just in case. I also have my kids take that with every meal out for their celiac, just in case. Anyhow the ramen is yummy and I very much appreciate that they work hard to make a GF option! They label everything very well on the takeout containers and in the restaurant the bowls are a different color.
