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

Several dishes are clearly marked 'V' on the menu: Tofu Salad, Japchae (available vegetarian or with beef), Kimbap, and Kimmari. A vegetable-filled dumpling option is also listed. The kitchen prepares meat alongside these dishes — shared prep surfaces are a given — but the 'V' markers make it straightforward to identify your choices without having to interrogate the menu.

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

No dishes are marked gluten-free on the menu, and wheat-containing items are prevalent — ramyun, jjapagetti, dumplings, and batter-coated items all appear. The venue's own allergen notice warns that dishes 'may contain or come into contact with wheat (gluten)' and that cross-contamination may occur. Staff are asked to be told about allergies before ordering, which is the only formal accommodation in place. Calling ahead is strongly advisable; a reliably safe coeliac visit is not supported by the current evidence.

Vegan-friendly dishes exist — tofu salad, japchae, kimbap, jjapagetti, and vegetable dumplings are all candidates — but the menu carries no 'VG' marker or vegan-specific section. A vegan diner found staff genuinely helpful in talking through options on the spot, though the menu itself gives no guidance. You'll need to ask which dishes can be made dairy-free; the HappyCow listing specifically flags 'request no dairy while ordering.' Quality of the conversation will depend on who's working that shift.
