This place is very delicious and the menu is very clearly marked for gf. i ate delivery from here two nights ago and felt fine the next day but then i ate the leftovers for lunch and dinner yesterday and have woken up with some symptoms today. I definitely feel glutened now although a mild and not horrible case. So maybe its safe for me in small quantities but not repeatedly? I didn’t call to check if their fried stuff is in a separate fryer or other cross contamination questions and probably should have been more careful. I had the kung pao chicken, mapo tofu, dandan noodles, and woodear mushroom and squash. I enjoyed the food a lot! I am not terribly sick but having a small reaction to it after 2 days.
