They are innovative and constantly changing their offerings. My non-GF mom likes their iced sugar cookies more than regular ones. Pricy but amazing!

We ate brunch here and it was amazing. The food was delicious and unlike any Japanese food I've had before. There is amazing attention to detail in the taste. They are also incredibly Gluten-free friendly. Only one item on the brunch menu had wheat and the fryer was wheat free.

Lots of interesting food but I wouldn't go here if you are coeliac because they can't promise there's been no cross contamination (due to the chicken alternative Seitan). The strawberry milkshake was the best I've had in a while.

Negligent with allergies!!! I explained I have gluten and dairy allergies which was written on the ticket and the person preparing the food was handling bread and immediately touched my food without changing gloves. If I hadnt looked up as it happened I would have gotten severely ill. I pointed it out and explained again that it's a severe allergy and would need them to change gloves and they still tried to give me the same bowl. Definitely not safe for people with actual allergies!!!

Really friendly staff and quick service. The food is a good-sized portion and has many flavors (I loved the Forbidden Rice Bowl!). We appreciated that it is 100% gluten free since my husband has celiac disease. The smoothies are small given their price ($10+ each) but very tasty.

Love this shop. My favorite are the lemon ginger squares, but I haven't had everything yet. I wish they had some lunch things. This place really was the gluten free dairy free spot I needed to find today though. Thank you!
