Dietary Restrictions and their Definitions
Lish provides dietary accommodations for diners with the dietary restrictions listed below. We provide full ingredient lists on our menu cards so that people who have allergies know what foods to avoid and which ones are safe to eat. While we hold our chefs to high standards, all Lish meals are prepared in commercial kitchens where cross contamination is possible.
