I’ve eaten here safely countless times. Food is consistently very good and as with many Thai items, they are inherently gluten free but of course, order wisely.

So one thing to be aware of is they are currently take out only. This started with Covid and they have continued with it. There is also a pretty long delay between putting in your order online and being able to pick it up, in our case 90 minutes on a Tuesday.

I’m not really able to comment on how strictly gluten-free they are because I was only able to online and the staff person handing out orders had limited English ability and was running around like a one armed paper hanger And didn’t really have time to chat regardless

I talked with several locals are waiting for my order to be ready, they had a rave reviews although our family was not particularly impressed with the food. It was very very sweet, everything had a lot of sweetener added to it. I think the dessert we ordered was actually less sweet than the entrées

Love the drunken noodle. You have to ask for it to be made gluten free but have no problems.

Also, the fresh spring rolls are to die for!!

I love the pad Thai, the teriyaki chicken in a half pineapple, and the Thai iced tea! Weird building but good food!
