Yuko Kitchen DTLA

Yuko Kitchen offers a separate gluten-free menu with dedicated items such as gluten-free cookies, sushi, and soy sauce. Multiple celiac reviewers report no symptoms, but the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. Cross-contamination is possible, notably because GF cookies are displayed in the same case as regular cookies. Staff are described as attentive and knowledgeable about allergies.
