However, not all items are gluten-free: the soy meat is clearly marked as containing gluten. Multiple diners report a dedicated gluten-free fryer. One diner was turned away and told there were no safe gluten-free options, while others report helpful staff. Because of these contradictory reports, the kitchen is best described as a shared kitchen with some dedicated equipment but not an entirely safe environment for coeliac diners without confirming directly.

No source discusses nuts at all. This is a limited thin signal from marketing copy with no independent verification. Those with nut allergies are to call ahead.
The venue's Hot Pepper Gourmet listing explicitly says it does not use eggs. This is a thin positive signal from a venue-controlled source, but there is no independent verification, no dedicated kitchen detail, and no accreditation. Call ahead to confirm the egg-free claim before relying on it.
The Hot Pepper Gourmet listing for the venue states that it can accommodate halal guests. This is a thin positive signal from venue marketing copy, with no independent verification, no halal certification, and no details about kitchen practice or meat sourcing. Calling ahead to confirm is advisable.
Always confirm with venue staff before ordering. Tiers and accreditations are guides, not guarantees.
