Limited information, Thin positive signal only: a stray menu callout, a single passing review mention, or generic dietary marketing without specifics. Not enough to assess kitchen practice. Call ahead and confirm before relying on it.

Vegan Insa is a vegan restaurant in Insadong where the owner understands which menu items can be made gluten-free—apparently bibimbap and one soup. There is no dedicated gluten-free menu, no dedicated fryer, and the kitchen is shared. The language barrier can complicate communication. This venue may work for a very cautious diner willing to explain their needs in person, but it falls short of a reliable option.

Honest caveat: A review on FindMeGlutenFree recounts that a staff member initially said they couldn't prepare a gluten-free meal until the cook corrected her.
