Review of Chik'n & Mi

If you have celiacs, please read this review.

Note: We went for dinner, so perhaps the menu is different for other times of the day.

First, the food is delicious, our server was lovely, and the space was beautiful.

However, the GF menu seems like it has a lot, but once we started asking questions, it got narrowed down to only a few items.

The only reason I'm giving it 3 stars is because they really are more CELIAC FRIENDLY. Very few options are celiac SAFE.

They do not have a dedicated fryer and this eliminates a lot of their GF options. Other than a few salads, the only safe option for my daughter with celiacs was the chicken ramen soup. They have a separate pot reserved for cooking the rice noodles. The chicken is seared (not fried) and I asked what was meant by soy marinated and was told they use tamari.

Our server was SO WONDERFUL! I will leave a place of someone sounds like they don't really understand celiacs or they won't admit they don't know something. Our server was knowledgeable, but admitted to not knowing about the fryer and went to check. I appreciated that she erred in the side of caution and said it was likely NOT a dedicated GF fryer.

There was one GF dessert and if you like chocolate, you'll love it. We had a safe and fun experience. The kitchen brought out my daughter's food separately and they had clearly "marked" it as super sensitive allergy (which was fine by me). I got the same soup myself and it was really delicious and filling.

If you have celiacs, you have to advocate for yourself here, but you will be supported by the kitchen and get tasty food!
