Chino Bandido

I have been eating here for years. After I found out about my allergy, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to come here anymore, but I've been here several times and have never had an issue. I love their emerald chicken, Jade Red Chicken, and black beans. I have a severe wheat allergy and haven't had to take my emergency meds.

Good food but it made me sick.

They do have 2-3 very tasty gluten free meat choices for their rice bowls. Especially the potato flour or corn starch breaded ones.

Unfortunately, whatever oil they use to cook the meat in (or possibly cross contamination) really does a number on my insides. I start noticing something is up about 30 min. after I eat their food.

Long story short, the next 8-24 hrs is miserable with multiple visits to the restroom. Sometimes with little warning.

My roommate had the same problem, but much worse than I did. Her issues lasted a couple days and she required the pink stuff for a little help.

It's because we both had similar issues to 2 different gluten free bowls, as to why I give them a 1 star rating. We can't be the only ones to have this reaction.

PS. I had a non-breaded chicken bowl and she had a non-breaded pork bowl with white rice.

they have a gluten-free menu behind the counter just ask for it

I have eaten here for years and have not gotten sick. Great choices ! Let them know you need to be gf and they will walk you through the menu.

Amazing food! One of the best places to eat in the valley. Many items are gluten free. All you have to do is ask at the counter. Also tell them it's gluten free and they take extra precautions. Pulled pork, emerald chicken and gringo chicken are favorites.
