Celiac safety profile
Izakaya Minato
Japanese Restaurant
54 Washington Ave, Portland, ME 04101
What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free calamari (GF and fried in a dedicated fryer)
- Gluten-free ice cream (served in its own single-portion cup)
- Gluten-free sashimi with gluten-free tamari
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The kitchen is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination remains a risk.
- Some fried items may be cooked in a shared fryer depending on the dish and kitchen setup.
- Communications do advertise a GF menu and a dedicated GF fryer in certain contexts, which mitigates risk for some items, but these practices may not apply to every dish.
- Guests with celiac disease should proactively communicate sensitivity levels and confirm how each dish is prepared, given variability in kitchen practices.
