Coming in hot with a rave review:
I swear—I will NEVER get tired of the Kanpai Roll at Sushi on Post Oak!
📍 Sushi on Post Oak, Houston, TX | @sopohouston
Sushi on Post Oak saved our date night last night with excellent service, delicious food, and a dedication to ensuring a safe gluten-free dining experience.
✨ My favorite roll there (maybe even all-time) is the Kanpai Roll (gluten-free), which comes with spicy yellowtail, cucumber, and avocado inside, topped with amberjack, yuzu kosho, and candied jalapeño. I honestly think I could happily eat that every day with the sushi ginger for the rest of my life.
🍣 My partner ordered one of his favorites, the Surf and Turf roll, which comes with lobster katsu, avocado, topped with Kobe beef, green onion, and a side of basil ponzu and black pepper sauce (disclaimer: this roll is NOT gluten-free).
As always, we had an excellent experience at SOPO!
However, for context: SOPO was our second stop for dinner last night because at a different sushi restaurant we went to beforehand, I was unfortunately glutened on the first bite of a cucumber salad that was on their supposedly “gluten-free menu.” The salad itself wasn’t just cross-contaminated—it was actually made with gluten-containing ingredients. So, we left immediately after that incident.
Even at gluten “friendly” restaurants, I still have anxiety when eating out because of how easily mistakes can be made. I’m still feeling sick almost 24 hours after my initial exposure at the other restaurant.
💛 This is why I’m so thankful for restaurants like SOPO, who go above and beyond to accommodate dietary needs and ensure a safe dining experience. Thanks again for an amazing night—I can’t wait to visit again soon!
