Best Gluten Free Restaurants in Grosse Pointe Farms

Blufin Sushi stands out for celiac diners craving fresh, flavorful sushi with a side of real understanding—staff are consistently described as helpful and well-versed in gluten-free needs. While it's not a dedicated gluten-free facility, they've got separate gluten-free soy sauce (tamari), can make fried rice safe on request, and even offer sushi rolls with dedicated gluten-free sushi rice. Still, shared kitchen spaces mean that extra vigilance is needed, especially for those highly sensitive to cross-contact. It's one of those spots where clear communication with your server makes all the difference—and honestly, knowing you can finally have a real crab California roll without worry? That kind of peace of mind is hard to come by.

BluFin Sushi & Izakaya Bar & Grill is a lively neighborhood spot for sushi lovers, but if you're living gluten-free, you'll want to tread carefully. The menu is packed with classic rolls, tempura, soy-based sauces, and even fried desserts—so gluten shows up everywhere. There's no mention of a dedicated gluten-free menu, separate prep area, or staff training for allergen safety. They do encourage guests to alert servers to allergies, but honestly, that's the bare minimum and not quite enough reassurance for those of us who need strict cross-contamination protocols. If you're celiac or highly sensitive, it's probably best to save BluFin for a night out with friends and stick to packaged drinks or very simple sashimi (after a good chat with your server).
