Review


First time I ordered here, I was ordering in person during covid and because I had so many celiac questions, the manager came outside to personally help me out. He totally knew what to do and how to take care of my restrictions and even offered to make a batch of GF ponzu sauce for my sushi. (I heard the gf pizza wasn't safe, so I only ordered sushi). First time experience was a home run.

Second time I ordered from here, I clearly stated that I was celiac and said the entire sushi order needed to be gluten free. I asked the person on the phone to confirm with the manager or chef that each roll was gluten free (I'm extremely sensitive). I picked up my order brought it home and started eating. The very first piece I ate had EEL SAUCE on it. I specifically ordered rolls that didn't have any gluten ingredients on it. Nowhere on the menu did it state eel sauce as an ingredient on the sushi rolls I ordered. They used it as a DECORATIVE GARNISH. JUST FOR FUN. Needless to say I was down for the count. I really had high hopes for this place because of my first experience, but I couldn't have been more clear and I still got so sick. I will never eat here again.
