Review of Asian Wok Cafe

We were in the DC area and tried to look for Asian food on Uber eats. We saw this restaurant on Uber with some gluten free menu items. The dishes marked gluten free clearly on Uber so I called the restaurant to make sure. The owner is very knowledgeable about gluten free. So I ordered with her on the phone instead Uber and went in person to pick up the food. She told me they started to do gluten free dishes about 5 years ago due to the high demand of gluten free/celiac customers in the area. She has a separate fryer just for gluten free dishes and understand to separate the kitchen area to void cross contamination. It is hard to find some Chinese restaurants that have gluten free dishes on the menu. We ordered gluten free Mongolian beef, string beans with chicken, egg fried rice and chicken cream corn soup. The food was delicious and fresh. My celiac son ate and no reaction. We will definitely come back for more.
