Best Thai and gluten free

So chill is so chill! Haha. Food was really good- we ordered gluten free Pad Tai & gluten free Mongolian beef. Our daughter wanted the SO CRABBY sushi- they had a gluten free option for that as well! Such a great dinner- 4 of us shared this meal and have left overs! Strawberry lemonade really hit the spot to!

Nicole

Very good ramen! Especially for offering a gluten free alternative. I was so surprised when the chicken in the bowl was fried, but they assured me all ingredients were GF.

This is our go to my wife, and daughter both have allergies, and one with celiac. They are always extremely sensitive to allergies. The food is incredible and the service is phenomenal. Tonight our server Brian was above and beyond.

Jason Killins

Gluten free options on the menu here!

Natalie

Delicious pho! I have celiacs and this is the only place I've found that has gluten free pho that's actually gluten free. Their attentiveness to this makes Sai Wok my Vietnamese restaurant of choice. I also love the murals on the wall and the bustling atmosphere. It's a great restaurant with delicious, safe food.

C Schaefer

Stopped in during our road trip. I was impressed by their gluten-free options. The Kung Pao chicken was excellent, we ordered one to-go. Server was Vaden, super friendly dude.

Abigail Byington

The food was absolutely delicious. I got a gluten free dish and they made it in a separate room to prevent contamination. Bit pricey though.

Eddie Conley

Amazing authentic Thai food with plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options.

Sarah

Hands down the best service and food we’ve have in Northwest Arkansas. Everything was fast, everyone was friendly, and the food was to die for. Highly recommend the Choo Chee Salmon and Baw-Look-Luck. There is a variety of gluten free and vegan options as well. We will be back!

Lilly Green

The food here is all great and service is incredibly nice. They also have a LOT of gluten free options!

Adria Bell

We love this place and have been there many times. I love that they have gluten free options. It's one of the few places I can eat at in Siloam Springs.

Jessica Nallavali

Highly recommend!! We came here on a whim one night when a local ramen place was closed. We certainly didn’t regret trying. First of all the service was excellent. We are vegetarians and I have a gluten allergy and the team here went out of their way to make sure all of the ingredients were safe to eat. The taste was also delicious! Some of the best Thai food we’ve ever had. It came out beyond quick too. Would absolutely come back here!!

Elizabeth Hudson

The food is amazing and I never get glutened here. They also remember your order and it is so relaxed and chill

Lori Toher

I love being able to pick exactly what goes into my dish. I am on an elimination diet & it's so hard to eat out. However, with this restaurant it's right up front where you see it all. They even have gluten free soy sauce. Cooked & raw choices for protein, rice or greens for the base & lots of variety. Awesome!!!! Loved it!❤❤❤

Elissa Heatherly

Ate here for lunch. I eat gluten free and although the menu is not marked for gluten free, I let our friendly server know and she took my order and said “we can make that gluten free”. I ordered the glass noodles with shrimp. They have gluten free soy sauce which is a bonus! Next time I want to see how the curry is. My gluten eating husband liked his drunken noodles. Great lunch on a very cold day!

Carmen Johns

Wow! The service was excellent, and the food was packed with flavor and well-presented. Definitely will be back. Love the gluten-free menu option, very nice for dining with folks with food sensitivities.

We normally love Kemuri and have long trusted it as a safe place to eat gluten- and dairy-free without incident, but today we had an uncharacteristic experience that I feel needs to be shared. We had a reservation for 8:00, and when we arrived the restaurant was full except our table and very busy. We were seated on time for our reservation and our waiter quickly came to take our order, but everything after that went a bit sideways. We knew what we wanted when we sat down - edamame and a gluten- and dairy-free Kemuri Platter - and ordered when the waiter came by to get our drink order. He was up front with us about not knowing much about what ingredients are and aren’t gluten free but made sure to note it on our order and told us he would trust us to tell him if something wasn’t right. It took over 30 minutes just to get our edamame, and around an hour to get the platter. When the platter arrived, there was tamago nigiri on the plate, and the two rolls had multiple ingredients containing gluten (tempura, eel sauce, and crabstick), which we did not catch until I took a bite of one. Our waiter didn’t come back for a while after, so eventually we each took a turn to try to go find him to no avail. When he did come back, we let him know about the rolls, and he immediately informed the manager. The manager came to our table and was very apologetic, pointed out that the tamago was also not gluten free, and said she would have the head sushi chef remake our rolls. The new rolls came out very quickly, but were obviously very hastily thrown together. One was filled with so much cucumber that it was comical - there were some pieces of the roll that had double the cucumber compared to the amount of fish. One of the rolls also came on a bed of seaweed salad, which is not gluten free. We were given two extra pieces of nigiri as well, which we appreciated, but my wife could only safely eat one of the rolls due to the cross contact with the seaweed salad. We had been there far over an hour by that point and just decided not to worry about it a second time, and I ate the roll she couldn’t eat. At the end of the meal, we expected to maybe have something taken off the bill for the inconvenience, but ended up paying in full. It didn’t feel worth arguing over the price of the bill after everything. I also want to note that we noted on the reservation that it was our anniversary, and it was not acknowledged at all - no one asked if we were there for a special occasion or anything and did not mention the anniversary part of the reservation. We did not leave feeling good about our visit or future visits to the restaurant during busy times.

There are limited gluten-free options on the menu and they have gluten-free soy sauce. But my husband loves this place so we keep going back.

Danielle Patterson-Ramsey

LOVE, Love, Love that they offer GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS, like the shrimp + chicken!! Have been eating here since I was a little girl, + I’ve always loved it!

Michael Debes

Some friends and I tried this place post gym workout one evening and it was immediately a favorite. Since one of my friends it a little gluten sensitive, they do offer GF Soy, and have selections that can be made relatively safe, by avoiding some of the sauces, but they can not guarantee celiac safe, due to the cross contamination possiblity. Staff and owners are friendly and engaging, making suggestions and answering questions. They're attentive making sure you're satisfied with your meal. The last time we were here, it was a Thurs, and they were a little busier than before we were there, but the staff was husseling to make sure we were taken care of. We had the Sushi Sashimi combo for two and it was plenty for the two of us. This place may become a weekly post workout favorite now.

Scott Anthony

Love this place, great food good service. They have gluten free options, most of the noodles are rice noodles. Awesome pho too! The best!

Lina Paul

My husband likes spice, but I don’t, and Thai E-San always makes us both happy! I also appreciate the gluten free options. Service is very fast, and everything is always fresh. Staff is always super friendly and makes us feel welcome.

The title of best sushi place in town tends to move around. Just when I think I've found it, I have several experiences that make me change my mind. But , with that in mind, I think this is the best sushi place in town currently. It was a good atmosphere, and the server was exceptionally good (though he was also tending bar, so his focus was a little split and a little slow to fill drinks, so I took a star for that), and the sushi was excellent. Some places you go, if you don't have the soy and wasabi, you don't really want the sushi. Or maybe the contents are too loose and fall apart, or the fish is almost soggy. None of these are the case here. I always try without the soy sauce first, and each of the four roles totally stood on their own with proper flavor and held together with and had excellent mouth feel. A note for those that do use soy: they don't have soy sauce here. They have Tamari. If you look it up, you'll be tempted to think that it's just gluten free soy sauce, and you'd be a little right, but mostly wrong. It has a much stronger and richer flavor, with less of that soy salt. But be warned: a little dab will do you. If you're going to use it, just dap the corner of your roll in it. It's delicious, but it's potent. I will also not that it's a bit pricey as well. We got two basic roles (10ish) and two mid range specialty rolls (20ish), and we came to a little over sixty dollars before tip. But that's not outside the range of what I expect for sushi today. Just know that going in. All told, it was a fun place with excellent food, and I recommend it.

Samu is my family’s favorite habachi/sushi restaurant! Fish is always fresh, beer is always cold, and smiles are always given! Super tender steaks, juicy chicken, and perfectly seared salmon for your habachi!! Let’s not forget about their vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options! There is truly something for everyone to enjoy! I would definitely recommend Samu to anyone looking for a new favorite place to get their bellies full!

Carissa Conroy

Yum!! Got gluten free hibachi!

Hayley Brown

Our server went above and beyond to make sure I could eat here and that I was well informed of gluten free options. We had a great meal. Thank you!

Jeffrey Visser

Just upped my rating. Although they need to have more options gluten free, they are a great place to eat and the food is great.

Devboss Copeland

Absolutely phenomenal. When I say this is the best restaurant in Central Arkansas I mean it. Outstanding service, amazing food, and great prices. Anthony is a gem! He helped us out by separating our food for a family member who can't have gluten. He cooked it separately to make sure that there was no cross contamination. It's so rare to find a place that treats you as good as they do, even when they are busy they still treat you like family. I can't say enough good things about Chef Lins. 12/10 🔥

Z Factor

Very pleasant experience here. Only complaint is I wish they had tags/descriptions on the food so I knew what did or didn't contain dairy and if you're gluten intolerant it'd be another issue too. But it's a great sushi buffet, delicious! Will certainly come again.

Pam Gangluff

Naru 2.0 but better food. Don't let yourself get caught up in the dim lighting; the food is worth staying for. I'm really a fan of their long list of gluten-free items, but make sure you also specify that you want the miso soup gluten-free. I once had a server bring me the gluten miso after I ordered a gluten-free meal.

Amara Outen

What a treat!! Although there’s a 2+ hour wait, it was completely worth it !! The waiter was so attentive and sweet! We got both hot pot and kbbq.They have options for everyone even GLUTEN FREE options! We practically tried everything, had alcohol and speciality drinks and our ticket was still under $100! for 2! Although it was jam packed it didn’t feel so with the space within the restraunt !! Happy this is now in Little Rock and we will be back sooner than later. Be sure to call for the waitlist before showing up with an empty belly the waitlist closed around 6:30 Saturday night as it got too full.😋👏🏽

Brian Marsh

First time visiting. Highly recommend sitting at the sushi bar as the chefs are fun and entertaining. They tried really hard to make Gluten free rolls for my wife, but most of their sauces have gluten. I only dinged them one star as she had very limited choices. The rolls were very visually attractive. Portions were good. Prices were reasonable.

Dodge Cowart

Staff knew what Gluten Free options were available and were able to help me select a new dish to try. The food was really good. I had never had Thai before and they said Pad Thai was a good option. I really liked it and will be back!

Sophia Waller Bailey

Kierstyn was an excellent server and the sushi chefs were all friendly and wonderfully talented! We got the Alaskan King roll, Bourbon roll, and AOI choice roll and they were all amazing. It was our 2nd time dining at this restaurant, this time celebrating our wedding anniversary. They were very accommodating to our gluten free needs. We will definitely be back!

Kay C Hook

Great!! They work with dietary needs like gluten free.

Elizabeth Perry

Literally so good. Don’t let the fact that this is a food truck deter you— the chicken is fresh made and so juicy. No frozen nuggets here. The sauce was so light and refreshing on the orange chicken. The rice noodles were so yum and gluten free. The egg rolls were to die for. Absolutely amazing 🤩 my stomach felt amazing after!

Shea Campbell

The service was excellent. The manager was so friendly. The sushi was fantastic. I tried the Rocky mountain roll with no crunchy and they carry gluten free soy sauce. My 7 year old ordered hibachi and loved it but also ended up eating his own little tuna roll.

Todd Knighton

One of Our favorite stops in Harrison! The seared escolar is amazing. Lightly seared for a flavor we've not found anywhere else. Gluten free options too, just ask. The fresh Wasabi is a must try 😅

Denise Colette Briez

The gluten free chicken & shrimp rice noodles is delicious!

Jeremy Culbreath

Great Ramen! We both had curry ramen. Wife had gluten-free noodles and pork. I had mine with fried chicken. Complex, but not muddy, flavor profiles. Fair prices. Great service. Highly recommend. We will be back.

Pam Gangluff

One of our favorite places to go. We always get the same thing and the service is always super quick, regardless of if we eat in or order take out. I have to eat gluten-free and have never gotten sick from eating here.

Adelaide Nickles

IN LOVE with the metalhead roll! The server is so nice! They have gluten free soy sauce. And all the rolls are customizable. So you can take out the cream cheese or whatever if you can’t have it. I wouldn’t go here if you’re looking for a traditional roll. They’re all rock ‘n’ roll themed.(obviously)

Jennifer Wade

Delicious. Highly recommend it. They have several gluten-free options that are full of flavor. We eat here weekly and will miss it when we leave.

Marie Aldrich

For anyone with Celiac or anyone gluten free, they cook in separate area! Beautiful restaurant!

Hunter Knudtson

I’m a regular here! Props to the kitchen tonight. Good for Gluten Free folk too

Royce Morgan

Great meal and a great performance by our chef. Waiter was very good helping my wife to get her food cooked properly to avoid gluten!

Jason Starrett

I love going here. I have to follow a strict gluten free diet and this place is one of the few I don't worry about cross contamination. Sushi is always amazing and my wife and daughter enjoy all the other food.

Marie Aldrich

Food and service great! Waiter very knowledgable on gluten free options!
