Best Gluten Free Sushi in Indianapolis

Benihana isn’t a dedicated gluten-free facility, but they’ve carved out a spot in the hearts of many gluten-free diners with attentive staff and a clear willingness to accommodate. While there’s no separate kitchen, chefs often prepare gluten-free meals first on the shared grill, use gluten-free soy sauce, and walk diners through every ingredient—sometimes even asking about additional allergies. Still, cross-contact can’t be ruled out, so it’s not a slam dunk for those with ultra-sensitive celiac disease. But if you’re after that sizzling tableside show with a side of caution—and you don’t mind advocating for yourself—it can be an enjoyable, memorable night out.

Fujiyama Steakhouse of Japan isn’t a dedicated gluten-free facility, but they do offer some thoughtful accommodations for gluten-free diners—think gluten-free soy and teriyaki sauces on hand, and staff who’ll check with chefs about your needs. The hibachi experience can be tailored with fried rice or steamed rice made gluten free, and servers appear willing to navigate menu questions with care. Still, cross-contamination is a real possibility given the shared grills and prep spaces, so those with celiac disease should approach with caution and clear communication—sometimes you just want to feel included, but here, it pays to double-check every detail before you tuck in.
