Safety Overview

Celiac safety assessment and key features

60%
Moderate

Pacific Counter brings a fresh, vibrant poke experience with clear gluten-free menu markings, making it easier for folks like us to spot safe options. Still, let’s call it like it is—this isn’t a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, and there’s no mention of rigorous cross-contamination protocols or staff training for celiac safety. The "build your own bowl" setup is fun and the staff seem happy to accommodate, but if you’re highly sensitive, you’ll want to ask lots of questions before ordering. If you’re used to navigating shared kitchens and can handle a bit of risk, you’ll find plenty to enjoy here, but strict celiacs should tread carefully.
