Top 10 Gluten Free Japanese Restaurants

Sushi&Sound

$$
95
Safety Score

P.za Ventiquattro Maggio, 1/10, 20123 Milano MI, Italy

Japanese

Sushi&Sound is a rare gem for celiacs in Milan—almost the entire menu is gluten free, with only a couple of exceptions clearly flagged (the gyoza and bao). Their AIC (Italian Celiac Association) certification is more than just a badge; it's a promise backed by meticulous protocols: staff undergo specific celiac training, separate utensils and cookware are used, and cross-contamination is treated like the enemy it is. You know what? Sitting here, you can finally relax and enjoy your tempura or ramen without second-guessing every bite. The sense of safety and inclusion they offer is something many of us have spent years searching for—and it's honestly a relief to find.

FLOOF

$$
75
Safety Score

Foro Buonaparte, 20121 Milano MI, Italy

Japanese

FLOOF is a breath of fresh air for celiacs in Milan—gluten-free fluffy pancakes, vibrant avocado toasts, and dreamy matcha lattes all take center stage here. The menu is confidently labeled gluten-free and even mentions gluten-free certification, which is a rare treat in Italy. While the site radiates celiac-friendly vibes and glowing customer praise about safe pancakes, I’d love to see more detail on their cross-contamination controls or kitchen practices before calling it 100% worry-free. Still, for those of us used to picking through menus with suspicion, FLOOF feels like a spot where you can actually exhale and savor something sweet without the usual anxiety.

Nu

62
Safety Score

Via Feltre, 70, 20134 Milano MI, Italy

Japanese

Nu offers a visually stunning Asian fusion experience in Milan, with fresh ingredients and a menu that does nod to gluten-free needs—think sushi and even gluten-free soy sauce. The staff seem genuinely informed about celiac disease and can point out which dishes are safe, which is a relief if you’ve ever had to play menu detective. That said, there’s no dedicated gluten-free kitchen or official written cross-contamination protocols, so you’ll need to communicate your needs clearly and trust the team’s awareness. If you’re used to navigating shared spaces but crave vibrant flavors in a warm, atmospheric setting, Nu can be a treat—but ultra-sensitive diners should tread carefully.
