Review of Han Dynasty

It kills me to write this review, because HD has been a favorite of mine for many years (prior to discovering earlier this year that I have to be strictly GF) but people need to be aware. Last weekend I ordered from their dedicated gluten-free menu. When the dish arrived, I could tell it had been made normally because I've ordered that dish dozens of times in my pre-GF days. I pressed the staff to confirm that it had been made GF. The server immediately said yes, but then "why, does gluten cause you medical issues or something?" My reaction to being glutened is severe and lasts for weeks, so I spoke with the manager who determined from the chef that the dish had actually been made with, and I quote, "a little bit of gluten". They remade it (it looked completely different), but now I know I can't trust ordering there. It was not busy, there was only one other table of diners. Many of the staff are unclear on what gluten is (even though they have a separate GF menu), there is a language barrier in the kitchen, and there is no gluten free fryer, prep area, or grill/pots/woks. GF diners beware.
