3726 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89158, USA

Japanese

SUSHISAMBA brings a rare sense of calm for celiac diners—menus are clearly marked, staff are consistently allergy-aware, and there's a real commitment to safe preparation (including a dedicated gluten-free kitchen area at several locations). The kitchen team knows their stuff, and it's obvious they've trained for these requests; even specialty sauces and sushi rice are carefully considered. There's something joyful about tucking into vibrant ceviche or that famous sea bass miso without second-guessing every bite. Is it perfect? Not always—cross-contact is still possible if communication slips, but most visits are seamless, and the range of naturally gluten-free dishes feels downright liberating for sushi lovers who usually have to sit out. Honestly, it's a spot where you can finally relax and just enjoy the food.

Mizumi

Safety Score

3131 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA

Japanese

Mizumi offers a luxurious Japanese dining experience where gluten-free guests are treated with notable care, though it's not a dedicated gluten-free facility. Servers are well-versed in celiac concerns and will flag dishes that are safe or easily modified, with tamari subbing in for wheat-based sauces and staff reiterating allergen precautions. While there's no separate gluten-free menu on the regular list, the kitchen is willing to prepare sushi in a separate area on request, and a dessert menu highlights naturally gluten-free options. It’s not the easiest place for spontaneous celiacs—advance communication and clear conversation at the table are essential—but for those craving pristine sushi and attentive hospitality in Vegas, Mizumi delivers a blend of artistry and awareness that feels reassuringly personal.

Chef Kenny's Vegan Dim Sum

Safety Score

5570 W Flamingo Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89103, USA

Japanese

Chef Kenny's Vegan Dim Sum brings a playful twist to plant-based Asian fare, with a menu full of vibrant vegan sushi and inventive noodle bowls. While some dishes are labeled 'gluten-free'—like their regular chow mein noodles and select sushi rolls—the kitchen isn't dedicated gluten-free, and there's no clear mention of separate prep areas or formal cross-contamination training. If you're celiac, you'll probably feel that familiar twinge of worry: can you really relax here? For folks with lower sensitivity or those who can have wheat-free vegan options, it's a fun spot, but anyone needing strict gluten avoidance should approach with caution and ask lots of questions.
