What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-Friendly Chicken Fried Rice (explicitly described as gluten-free, though not guaranteed to be completely free of gluten due to cross-contact risks in a shared kitchen/grill). If you choose this option, communicate clearly with your server and chef about avoiding gluten-containing ingredients and cross-contact.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The teppanyaki grills and back-of-house operations may cook gluten-containing foods on the same surfaces as gluten-free items. The official FAQs acknowledge that they cannot guarantee the absolute elimination of allergens in this setting, even when precautions are taken.
- Diners have reported varying experiences: some were assured that their meals were prepared first or in a separate area, while others encountered inconsistent communications or missteps (e.g., changes to soup or dressing safety without clear updates).
- While gluten-free options exist and staff can be knowledgeable, the lack of a dedicated gluten-free facility means there is inherent cross-contamination risk.
