What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- 100% buckwheat soba noodles (gluten-free option clearly marked on the menu)
- Gluten-free tempura (vegetables and shrimp), with notes of dedicated space or separate fry oil to reduce cross-contact
- Gluten-free soba soup base/dashi (gluten-free stock used in GF preparations)
- Gluten-free soy sauce (available for use in GF dishes and sold for home use)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The business is not listed as a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there is potential for cross-contamination risk if standard preparations are used for non-GF items.
- Some older or less-recent feedback notes concerns about cross-contact; however, a large majority of recent diners report strong precautions (separate water, dedicated space, metal utensils, clearly labeled GF options) and positive safety experiences.
- One older review mentions that some GF items or preparations could involve cross-contamination risk; this underscores the importance of explicitly asking for celiac-specific accommodations at the table.
