Review
The GF ramen is delicious, but I am celiac and got sick from the Don buri that is marked as GF on the menu is not celiac friendly. We asked the restaurant and they said it’s marked “gluten friendly” on most of their menus but the online menu did not make that distinction.

Great gf ramen! Gf options clearly marked on menu. Only issue is the fryer is shared so you have to ask them to leave anything fried off the gf ramen.

Best gluten free ramen ever! I hadn’t had it in years and am so thrilled to have found this place. They have several delicious gluten free options. The noodles taste very similar to Lotus Foods. I’m celiac and did not get sick!

Review
My ramen was delicious and the server was knowledgeable about cross contamination and let me know they had a shared fryer so I didn’t order the fried apps.
I got the spicy miso ramen and it was delicious. I will be going back to try all of their gluten free options!
They use yelp to manage their waitlist so I think you can get added to the list before arriving which I would recommend because the dining room can be a little cramped at dinner time- and this was before I he universities’ move in days.

Review
I'd never had ramen before as I had been diagnosed with celiac before I could, but it was incredible. I obviously can't compare it to other ramens, but it was safe and tasted great. The waitress was super aware of what was gluten free and what wasn't and made sure I knew there was gluten in the same kitchen. Menu is clearly labeled.

Review
Very good! The broth is excellent. I got extra spicy and was delicious. It was definitely hot! I wish there were more veggie options to add. But easy to add if we get delivered at home. The GF noodles remind me of spaghetti. But does the trick. We will definitely order here again. Very yummy!

I haven’t had ramen in years! It was so good. Actual ramen noodles, not thin rice noodles. All the broths are gf. No dedicated fryer so avoid the fried foods. I had the tonkotsu ramen and felt great after.
