Gonpachi provides a separate vegan menu, available by request from staff, with options such as vegan sushi, grilled vegetable skewers, and vegetable tempura. Staff are able to adapt dishes (for instance, removing fish stock from broth) and may change fryer oil on request. However, shared fryer oil and a reported incident of bonito flakes on a vegan dish mean cross-contamination risk is present. Dedicated vegan soy sauce is available.

Best effort ·what tier C means

Gonpachi provides a separate gluten-free menu that includes tempura, yakitori, sushi, and skewers. The kitchen uses shared fryers and grill surfaces. Staff awareness of gluten-free requirements varies. Some employees are helpful and will change the fryer oil upon request, but others have been known to serve mislabelled gluten-free beer. The venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility and may not be safe for coeliac diners without careful communication. Calling ahead to check current practices is recommended.
