The food is good and fresh, with gf options clearly indicated on the wall menu. The wait person asked if I needed a glove change. What I'm not crazy about here is that the menu is split into build your own warm rice bowls or build your own poke bowls, and the toppings don't cross over. The server didn't want to let us put a warm rice bowl condiment on a poke bowl. It was kind of ridiculous. Otherwise, it was tasty, safe, and reasonably priced.
This place seemed pretty good, I age here with no reaction! The staff was very aware of the gluten free options. I felt safer sticking to the rolls rather than trying a whole bowl.

Do NOT order the General Joe's Rice Noodle Bowl! I've eaten it successfully several times but it has made me sick twice. The first time I found Udon noodles in with my rice noodles it was explained to me that they sometimes use the same water to boil the Udon noodles and the rice noodles. This dish is listed as gluten free on the menu. False advertising. Today the same thing happened again after I specified "gluten free for allergies" when I ordered. They don't walk the line and don't care. I'll never eat there again.
Love the heck out of this location! One of my favorites in town. The GF teriyaki is some of the best in town and the spring rolls are friggin delicious. The GF items are definitely GF and I have not gotten sick from their food. I highly recommend this restaurant as it is my favorite place to eat while cramming in my studies.
Past 2 times the gf terriaki sauce has made me ill. Don't think I will go back anytime soon. Tofuis also NOT gf. Store employee said it was but when I got ill and went back the manager told me that the employee had been "misinformed".

I was actually quite impressed with the food here and the fact that it is safe to eat if you have a gluten allergy or even if you are celiac. I’ve spoken to the manager before, and they told me that they take the necessary precaution with gluten to prevent any cross-contamination.
Items are clearly labeled as gluten free or clarifies what can be made GF. Cashier will enter allergy information and warning for the kitchen to be mindful of protocol.
Tokyo Joe’s is my go to spot when I need to grab a quick, safe meal. This was my first visit to this location and they marked it as celiac. I loved my chicken bowl with yellow curry.
I have celiac disease and I absolutely LOVED everything. They have gluten free sauces, the meat and rice are automatically gluten free, everything is clearly marked! It made it easy and I wasn’t worried about cross contamination whatsoever. It’s also a nice atmosphere! If you’re in the area, check them out!
Items listed gluten free & they advertise they "do gluten free".
