Little Lilly Sushi

75
Safety Score

6100 Camp Bowie Blvd #12 Fort Worth, TX 76116

Japanese

Little Lilly Sushi offers a mostly gluten-free-friendly sushi experience with knowledgeable staff and dedicated gluten-free options like separate menus and modified sauces. However, the absence of a dedicated gluten-free kitchen area and inconsistent staff knowledge pose some risks. Overall, it’s a place that genuinely tries but requires cautious ordering, especially for those with severe celiac sensitivities.

Blue Sushi Sake Grill

$$
68
Safety Score

3131 W 7th St, Fort Worth, TX 76107, USA

Japanese

Blue Sushi Sake Grill stands out for its broad gluten-free menu, including creative sushi rolls and vegan options, but it’s important to know they operate in a shared kitchen. They offer a dedicated gluten-sensitive menu, use tamari instead of standard soy sauce, and staff are generally knowledgeable—though experiences with celiac safety can be inconsistent depending on location and server training. There’s no separate prep area or written cross-contact protocols, so while many celiacs report safe meals, there’s always that underlying worry about accidental exposure. If you’re used to navigating shared kitchens and are proactive about communicating your needs, this spot delivers vibrant flavors with a side of cautious optimism—but those highly sensitive may want to weigh the risks.

Safety Score

6100 Camp Bowie Blvd #12, Fort Worth, TX 76116, USA

Japanese

Little Lilly Sushi is a refreshing spot for gluten-free sushi lovers who crave variety but still want to feel seen and safe. While it's not a dedicated gluten-free facility, staff here generally understand celiac needs and offer gluten-free soy sauce, with most classic rolls and sashimi easily made safe—just steer clear of tempura and anything with eel or sweet soy sauce. The in-house sauces are often gluten-free, which is a rare treat, but you'll need to communicate clearly with your server and double-check on each visit since consistency can vary between shifts. For many in our community, it's a place where you can exhale a bit, enjoy bold flavors, and (most days) not feel like the "difficult" diner—but as always, bring your questions and trust your gut if something feels off.
