I eat here pretty frequently and am Celiac. I've never had an issue. They have a lot of GF options. I'm a big fan of the shrimp pineapple fried rice and the eggplant stuffed with ground chicken in a green curry sauce.

They had a GF menu. However, the waiters did not seem to know lots about celiac. When the food came, it seemed to be what I ordered. There was no flavor to it and when I finished there was an oil pool at the bottom. I wished that I could’ve strained it out. Afterwards, I felt incredibly sick. I would not recommend this restaurant for any person with celiac or for anyone that is gluten free.

First off we had a fantastic lunch here! The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about preparing the food and making sure it was entered in as a gf order. They have a dedicated gf menu just ask! We had the Porpia Sod, Pad Ke Mao, & Pad Thai all of them were fantastic and tasty. I would recommend this Thai food highly! I have Celiac and felt very comfortable before and after eating here! I will return!

Tasty and staff was reasonably forthright. They use the same pan for gluten items but clean it thoroughly. Sounds like there isn't much flour but the sauces have gluten.

Food wasn't bad but the servers did not seem knowledgeable and it was hard to communicate with them. Did not feel confident about ingredients. Went during lunch so that may have been the difference.

Absolutely delicious!! Pad Thai with prawns was fabulous and red curry with pork shoulder and kabocha squash was a definite win. Great cocktails too - loved the Sublime: Bombay Sapphire, grapefruit juice and lime wedges. Mmm.
