Poke House – Warm Springs
Location: Fremont, California
“When I went several years ago, they told me there was nothing with peanuts on the menu. The nuts were sliced almonds that were an “after mix topping” so they were not around the area the poke is mixed in. They have since added a new dressing so definitely ask before ordering, but it was a safe meal for me!”

Sweetfin
Location: Los Angeles, California
“This place is the only dedicated gluten-free poke spot I’ve ever seen/visited. They have tons of fun pre-made poke bowls to choose from or you can make your own. I always order their bento box which comes with a few different types of poke and the best taro chips. I love knowing the whole kitchen is safe for me and there are so many options to choose from!”

Local Poke
Location: Pleasanton, California
“I’ve had this poke multiple times and always been safe! The owner is often there, and he always reassures me they do not use peanuts. There are macadamia nuts that can be added at the end. It is a small kitchen and not exactly allergy aware so definitely order with caution. The poke is delicious!”

Poke Dot
Location: Claremont, California
“This is a poke chain in the LA Area! Nothing has nuts, which is great, and it’s pretty easy to order gluten-free! I always get a make your own bowl with salmon and tuna and usually stay away from the crunchy topping area, which has a lot of fried items. Everything has it’s own spoon and container though, so I usually feel pretty safe from potential gluten cross-contact. I’ve never had an issue here!”

Location: Park Ridge, Illinois

I think they do have nuts on the premises but they promised to keep my food away from them and took extra caution. As a plus, you build your own bowl with ingredients, so you know exactly what is going in there. When you order, they also ask you to check a box if you have food allergies so they can discuss it with the chef and make sure you will be safe. Great food, so delicious!”

MASSACHUSETTS
Douzo Sushi
Location: Boston, Massachusetts
“Loved our trip to Douzo Sushi. Among other allergies, my daughter has a sesame allergy so I’m very weary of sushi restaurants. I asked if they could make a poke bowl that wasn’t on the menu with just rice, salmon, avocado, cucumbers. I figured this would be safest. My daughter loved it. My other daughter (who has a tree nut allergy) was able to have the chicken teriyaki. The waitress assured me that they handle allergies daily and have a clear protocol in place.”

POKE by Love Art
Location: Boston, Massachusetts
“POKE by Love Art is 100% gluten free place that has amazing Hawaiian inspired bowls. We ordered a wide variety of bowls off their menu as well as created some of our own bowls. The tofu my daughter and I had was insanely delicious! But so were so many of their items. So glad we found this 100% gluten free place and the kids got to try some new foods they had never tried before.”

Island Fin Poke
Location: Worcester, Massachusetts
“Delicious poke bowls and dole whip! Everything is gluten free with the exception of crunch toppings that are kept at the end, separate from the other ingredients. I only wish that their menu was labeled more clearly for gluten free/allergens, but they are very helpful you just have to ask!”

Super appreciate that the put the ingredients of all of their sauces right on the menu!”

Calii Love

“This restaurant has a second location close to University of Toronto Campus off of Bay St! I used to come here all the time for poke bowls and customizable salads. They have tons of vegan options and also serve fish and tofu I believe. They take allergies seriously if you speak to the staff and I never had an issue with cross-contamination after doing so. They are primarily plant based and can accommodate almost any diet. I used to get poke bowls with salmon and tons of toppings here.”

Location: Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
“Found this poke bowl place near my hotel. The building looked a little sketchy from the outside but the restaurant itself was super cool. The poke was delicious and the menu was in English, making it really easy to tell what was and wasn’t gluten free. You choose a rise or salad base, add any toppings you want and then add a sauce. Hands down one of the best poke bowls I’ve ever had!”
