Japanese

Screaming Tuna brings a bit of relief to Milwaukee’s gluten-free crowd with sushi options clearly labeled in blue and staff that seem genuinely tuned in to celiac concerns—think gluten-free soy sauce at the ready and careful attention to your order notes. There’s even a dedicated fryer for gluten-free tempura, which is such a rare treat it almost feels like they get what it means to crave safe variety. Still, it’s not a dedicated facility, so there’s that unavoidable shared-kitchen anxiety hovering in the background; staff training and protocol awareness are strong, but full cross-contamination control can’t be absolutely guaranteed. If you’re the type who needs that extra peace of mind from a 100% gluten-free environment, you’ll want to ask all your usual questions—but for many celiacs, this spot has delivered safe, delicious sushi with a side of understanding more times than not.
