I’ve gone to Jane G’s quite a few times and have always enjoyed the food. They have GF shrimp dumplings, pad Thai, and other dishes. I’m kind of disappointed because their banana leaf sticky rice, which was one of my favorite dishes to get, was recently made no longer GF. They said that it now has soy sauce in the dish. I think they have good food, but I think their variety could use some expanding.
It was good they have a separate GF and vegetarian menu.
My go-to place for Thai food in the area! So good and I have never gotten sick at the University City location. I did get very sick at the Rittenhouse location and I have not been back there since. Also at Rittenhouse they didn’t seem to understand gf so when I ordered pad thai they gave me rice noodles with a side of what they claimed to be gluten free soy sauce, which tasted bad and got me sick. But University City pad thai, fried rice, and shrimp dumplings are always amazing and super safe. Waiters also understand gluten free and are happy to accommodate.

I thought I would have to give up dim sum until I found this place! Shrimp dumplings amazing! Fried rice with crab and mushrooms even more amazing :) Definitely stopping here when I’m in Philly.
Amazing food. Not a ton of gf options but all the gf food I tried was great. My party thought the portions would be smaller so we ordered a lot. So heads up that the portions are pretty big here. Shrimp dumplings, beef soup, black mushroom bok choy, and authentic/traditional fried rice were gf favorites for everyone.
Ordered for delivery, all good tasty and no bad reaction from my wife. Appreciate the items being marked on menu
Crazy interesting foods delivered to my hotel! I love the pork fried rice and the shrimp are big in the glass dumplings. I also ordered the stuffed banana leaf. Different but good. Sweet Sticky rice with shrimp, sausage, and I think some nuts and/or beans wrapped in a banana leaf. Lots of leftovers!
I feel bad giving a two star review as the service was excellent and they were very careful to make sure my son's meal was safe and gluten free. Honestly, the food just wasn't as good as we hoped. It wasn't the gluten free items as much as it was the regular entrees.
The menu was marked with the designated gf dishes and the server was knowledgeable about making entrees gf that were not marked. We got the short ribs, Brussel sprouts, shrimp dumplings and black mushroom bok choy. Everything was delicious and I had no reactions.
Have ordered delivery from Jane G’s as well as eaten at the restaurant and my boyfriend who has celiac’s has never had a bad reaction from the food. The GF options are clearly marked on the menu and the food is also delicious!
My girlfriend and I got the Crystal Shrimp Dumplings, West Lake Beef Soup, Double Cooked Pork, and Black Mushroom Bok Choi along with a few cocktails. The portions were big and the food was great! They have GF options marked on the menu, and can make some of the dishes GF if you ask. The only issue was the GF dumplings were served with a non-GF sauce…good thing I asked before trying it. Overall, a good experience. We’ll definitely go back :)
