I had my doubts about a gluten free safe meal at Katsura in Japan pavilion of Epcot, but we love sushi so we had to stop in and ask. The line was a little long and a little slow, but once we got to the counter, the people were very friendly, polite, and helpful. We were interested in the California rolls, which are premade. They were guaranteed to be free of gluten and free of dairy, so we were safe to eat them! Yay! They also brought out containers of gluten free soy sauce for us to use. For dessert option, there was not a gluten free dairy free choice, but the green tea ice cream is free of gluten. We were warned that there is a concern of cross contamination with the ice cream, but we took the risk and my daughter ate it. She enjoyed it and she did not get sick.We really loved this as a counter service meal where we were able to use our dining plan quick service credits. Many of the items on the menu looked obviously unsafe, but if you are going in for sushi or maki rolls, you can find some fantastic options. We loved it!

Sunshine Seasons 2012 November
We hit rope drop and Soarin', then we stopped at Sunshine Seasons for breakfast. We used our counter service for the meal you see. The chef made safe eggs for us. There was not a bread item to replace the biscuit in the counterservice meal, so the chef gave us some fruit to share. Can I say that these eggs were the best I've had in a couple of years? They have some secret dairy free buttery flavor that was such a treat! It worked out great for us. We rode Soarin', with the fast passes we got before riding, after breakfast. Win win win!

We wanted to try something new, so we booked a dinner here. They did a very good job catering to our allergen needs, however we were not excited about the food. The new bread rolls are sweeter and softer than the old style.
The Indian food chicken dish tasted like a frozen version of Indian food, and not very good in comparison when any I've ever ordered at an actual Indian Food restaurant.
The Dessert, pictured, is gluten free, but not dairy free. They did not have anything creative for a gluten free AND dairy free dessert, save rice dream ice cream...plain. I can't say it's a repeat for us, though if you think those menu items sound good to YOU, then give it a try! It was nice to have so many options for the entree.
Liberty Tavern 2011 November
My daughter had a gluten free (not dairy free) mac and cheese with grapes, and a chocolate chip cookie from French Meadow Bakery.
I opted for a grilled chicken (see below), which comes on a flat bread. Instead, I asked for it to be served on a gluten free bun. They left off the aioli, though I believe it is gluten free and dairy free from reading the ingredients. The chef was uncertain, so she omitted it. We have had the bagged grapes in
the past, and they had an odd plastic flavor. This year, they tasted very fresh and good. We enjoyed our grapes and we saved the cookies and brownies for later. Liberty Tavern used to have a help yourself bar for tomatoes and pickles, but this has been removed.Sunshine Seasons Nov 2011
I stopped for a breakfast snack of potaotes. They were fine, though the serving was very small. They did have other options, such as eggs, fruits, breakfast meats.
Garden Grill Nov 2011
There were ample choices at Garden Grill for our gluten free and dairy free dining needs. The food was delightful. The salad was wonderful, and the turkey, mashed potatoes, and gravy were a treat. We all enjoyed our meal here and we recommend it.
