"I love this place because you can customize every ingredient to suit your specific dietary needs, and it's absolutely delicious and satisfying, with healthy options available! Personally, I follow a mostly paleo diet (grain-free, dairy-free, limited legumes), so I order mine without rice and load up on local leafy greens. Their wasabi mayo is a favorite of mine—it's one of the few grain-free sauces they offer, unlike some sauces that contain cornstarch or gluten. You can even check their extensive binder of ingredients if you're curious!
I'm a fan of their squid and salmon, and their imitation crab is made from pollock, which is much better quality than what you typically find at other Asian restaurants that use wheat or rice in their imitation crab. I love topping my dishes with watermelon radish, ginger, pineapple, and sprouts, along with some healthy black seeds. I do hope they bring back the masago lychee fruit! Just a heads up, their seaweed salad contains gluten, but that's not their fault since it's shipped to them that way. If you're dining in, be sure to ask for a reusable bowl to help cut down on plastic waste.
I've visited this place many times and introduced my friends to it, and they've all fallen in love with it too! If you're vegan, you can easily substitute tofu for seafood. They have excellent paleo options and fantastic gluten-free and dairy-free choices. The prices are great for the quality you receive, and the atmosphere is nice. It's like a Chipotle for Asian cuisine! My only complaint is that sometimes the staff can be a bit careless when serving, mixing ingredients in a way that could be problematic for someone avoiding specific items, like corn, for instance. Overall, bring your friends who have special dietary needs; they will find something delicious to eat here!"
