Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Salmon and avocado roll — reported as safe
  • Pad Thai — repeatedly mentioned in a GF context and described as safe in multiple accounts
  • Monkfish fried rice — noted as GF with modifications in at least one account
  • Sashimi options that are marked GF — referenced as GF in reviews

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Not a dedicated gluten-free facility; cross-contamination risk exists.
  • Fryers and shared oil may be a concern for some dishes; at least one guest noted fryer safety as an issue.
  • While many guests report positive experiences, there are older reports of miscommunication or limited knowledge about celiac specifics from some staff in prior years.
  • A few dishes (e.g., miso soup in one case) and some proteins may not be GF unless specifically modified or verified—check with staff and request GF modifications as needed.
