  • A round wooden board of rolls, nigiri and sashimi, seen from above.

The tempura is gluten‑free, too.

At most sushi counters a coeliac gets handed a short list: no tempura, no crab, check the soy sauce. Umeko works the other way round.

One fryer, gluten-free only

Shrimp tempura comes out of a rice-flour batter, and nothing containing wheat goes into that oil.

Crab that is actually fish

Wild-caught Alaska pollock. Whole fish protein, no wheat and no additives, in the California, crab salad and dynamite rolls.

Sauces made here

The teriyaki and the garlic mayo are house-made and gluten-free, so the bowls and the dragon rolls stay safe.

Vegan past the token roll

Eleven vegan rolls, two vegan dragon rolls, tofu teriyaki bowls and agedashi tofu. Vegan miso on request.

Cut to order in Centretown

Umeko sits on the Bank Street strip in Centretown, with a counter down one wall and tables at the front. Most of the day’s work leaves in a bag, but the seats fill at lunch and the 6 and 7 stop outside.
