The 3 Best Gluten-Free Sushi
in Tokyo
Soy sauce (Shoyu) contains wheat. Vinegar can be tricky.
These restaurants understand Celiac needs and offer GF Soy Sauce always.
Finding safe sushi is harder than it looks. The fish is safe, but the sauce and vinegar often aren't. We've selected 3 spots ranging from casual to high-end that guarantee a worry-free authentic experience.
Gonpachi Asakusa Azumabashi
Asakusa (River Side)
Known globally as the "Kill Bill" restaurant chain. This location in Asakusa offers a stunning river view and a **dedicated Gluten Free Menu**. They have GF Soy Sauce and staff are well-trained on cross-contamination.
- Must Order: Temaki (Hand rolls) & Yakitori
- Note: Shared kitchen, but they use separate cookware for GF items.
Otsuna Sushi
Roppongi
A historic sushi spot with a modern twist. Their famous **"Inari Sushi"** (Fried Tofu Pouch) has a unique texture (inside-out) and is available Gluten Free! Offers a quieter, more authentic atmosphere than tourist hubs.
Tokyo Sushi Bowl (Asakusa)
Asakusa
If you want a casual, filling bowl of seafood (Kaisendon) without the formatting formalities of a sushi bar. Very tourist-friendly and accommodates allergies explicitly.
