confidence 65% ·

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

Gluten-free items are marked on the menu and the chef will accommodate coeliac requests—one coeliac diner reported a safe grilled chicken don. However, the kitchen is shared and there is no dedicated fryer, so cross-contamination is possible. Best for those who can tolerate some risk; call ahead to confirm current practices.

Several dishes are explicitly vegan (e.g. Neko's Signature Curry with fried tofu, Crispy Tofu Donburi) and plant-based milks are available. Staff are knowledgeable about vegan diets. The kitchen is shared with non-vegan items, so cross-contact is possible.
