🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Sushi (gluten-free options are reportedly available and labeled on the menu)
  • Salads (gluten-free items are clearly marked on the menu)
  • Steaks (gluten-free steak options are cited among GF menu items)
  • Note: Some diners reported gluten-free soy sauce and other GF ingredients may be used; others indicated there can be confusion or mislabeling in some orders. When ordering sushi or other dishes, it helps to confirm GF preparation and request kitchen notes or foil-wrapping as needed.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Drake's is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact is a real consideration.
  • Several diners noted that staff were knowledgeable and made efforts to prevent cross-contact (e.g., informing the kitchen, using foil for specific prep), but there were also reports indicating possible issues with soy sauce labeling or cross-contact in non-sushi dishes.
  • A common thread is that gluten-free labeling exists, but vigilance remains important—especially when choosing non-sushi menu items or when soy sauce is involved.
  • If you have celiac disease, it’s prudent to clearly communicate your needs, confirm GF prep steps with the staff, and consider bringing or requesting gluten-free condiments when possible.
