Bring your own gf soy sauce. Did not get sick. Every dish they brought out confirmed no sauce/celiac safe. Best meal I’ve had in a long time

Great sushi but they don't provide gf soy sauce which is strange considering how nice and professional the place is. Didn't get sick!

Sugarfish was very knowledgeable about what could be made GF and what couldn’t.

SUGARFISH does not have GF sauces, but was able to safely prepare the trust me menu without any sauces and it was delicious. Most hand rolls do not have a sauce by default, which I would recco for celiacs

Really great! Just tell your waiter you have a gluten allergy and they can make accommodations. They don’t have gf soy sauce so bring your own!

No GF menu. They can accommodate for GF but they remove all of the sauces and do not have GF soy sauce or tamarin. I recommend bringing your own soy sauce. I didn’t but 2 blocks away is a Vons grocery and picked on up (they had several options). The sushi was amazing and so glad I went and got soy sauce.

No tamari or salt. Hope you like your sushi with lemon!

They can make anything for you gluten free by omitting all soy. They don’t have tamari on the side. It’s 2023, this is no longer acceptable for a sushi restaurant in LA and NYC. Way too many other options available. Overall, you know they don’t care to serve GF customers.

They’ve always taken allergies very seriously, and ordering by saying gluten allergy always works. They don’t have alternative GF soy sauce, but the fish is so good it’s better without the sauce anyway.

This restaurant handles gluten allergies with perfection! They have some standard meals that they are known for, but the chefs can adjust them for Celiac and for my wife's allergy to shellfish. They substituted another fish for their imitation crab, didn't use ponzu sauce, and verified that their wasabi mix was gluten free. We had a wonderful meal with no bad effects afterwards.

Everything on the menu can be made gluten free simply by not including their ponzu or yuzu ponzu sauce. You can definitely eat each dish plain but if you like soy sauce you have to bring your own gluten free soy sauce as they do not have that.

Fantastic sushi. Good allergy awareness. No GF soy sauce but the sushi is so good that I didn't miss it.

Incredible sushi. No gluten issues. They don't have GF soy or other sauces so I ate without sauce. Sone of the best sushi I've had in a long time.

Emailed customer service concerns about celiac, and their response was very informed and reassuring. Almost everything on the menu is gluten free, and the sauces are the only thing containing gluten (and the scallops and fish eggs, which are marinated in the soy sauce), and the customer service rep. was able to give information about gluten ppm of the food. The food that came was also labeled with a gluten free sticker. I feel very safe eating here and would order from here again for sure!! My favorite sushi

Edit- ate here again but this time in restaurant (not takeout like previously). Insanely professional, with each dish brought to me they confirmed it was for celiac. There’s no gluten free soy sauce provided, so bring your own, but otherwise feel very confident and safe here!

My favorite sushi spot in Los Angeles. Staff is knowledgeable on gluten and the take out/delivery menu has an allergy option where gluten can be marked. Most food is gluten free without sauces. Highly recommend.

update: Bay Scallops roll no longer safe. The fish eggs in the sauce come in a brine with gluten. Prices are also pretty high for so-so fish. Go around the corner to Rolln. Less scene, way less money.

Old review/: They have excellent allergy protocol. There’s no gluten free soy sauce, but the fish is excellent. There’s also no tempura crunches that can contaminate. I’ve eaten there countless times since it opened a year ago without any problem

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent fish but alas they don’t carry GF soy sauce (u r welcome to bring your own). A year ago I asked and was told that Kitchen uses a malted rice vinegar thus it’s not safe for Celiac.

Today I went back (1yr later) and kitchen says rice is made only with water and nothing else. If that’s true then should be good to go.

Wonderful meal. Knowledgeable staff. Bring your own gf soy sauce. Sushi rice is gf. Love it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff very knowledgeable and careful. Bring your own gf soy sauce. Wasabi seems to be fine.

No GF soy, but very accommodating.

Fish was great, but be ready for very stringent “rules” regarding how they serve their sushi. If you can provide soy sauce to your patrons, why can’t you provide gluten free soy sauce to those who HAVE A GLUTEN ALLERGY??? It’s ridiculous.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

No gluten free menu but very accommodating. Most sushi seems to be gluten free except for sauces which they leave off. No stomach issues after eating here. Make sure you bring your own GF soy sauce though!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is my favorite local LA sushi chain. Delicious sushi and great service. Just specify "gluten allergy" and no sauce when ordering.
