Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

RAKKAN Ramen DTLA offers gluten-free ramen noodles and is listed on Coeliac UK's venue guide (member-recommended, not accredited). Multiple sources confirm gluten-free noodles are available, but none describe a dedicated fryer, dedicated kitchen, or staff training protocols. The venue's own website and online ordering pages do not mark dishes for allergens. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged as shared kitchen equipment is likely.

Soy-free

confidence 0.50 ·

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

The atly.com listing states the venue offers 'soy-free' ramen options. The venue's own website prominently features soy sauce as a key ingredient in its broths, suggesting soy is present in the kitchen. No dedicated soy-free prep area or marked menu is mentioned. Confidence is low due to the contradiction between the third-party claim and the venue's own ingredient focus.

Reminder

Always confirm with venue staff before ordering. Tiers and accreditations are guides, not guarantees.
