I have eaten here multiple times. Before and after being diagnosed. Unfortunately this last time (9/30/22) I got super glutened. We took the precautions when calling the restaurant and they are usually SO careful and considerate. But something got through anyway.

As a sensitive celiac person, I don’t eat safely in very many restaurants—but I can sure eat in this one! I am a regular diner of several years and have never gotten sick after enjoying Fan Tang. There are a variety of GF options available, all flavorful and delicious. I commend the owner and the staff for their courtesy when I am ordering, excellent service, and care preparing my dishes. This is a great place to bring friends or family too since they are great at making guests feel welcome!

Eaten here several times, never gotten sick. Many GF options. We have tried the sweet and sour chicken, coconut chicken curry, orange beef. All delicious. No problems. Great service. Good prices.

I have always loved fan tang but recently the quality has gone down. I always double check if my food is gluten free when brought out to me and on a few occasions they had made the non gluten free version

So disappointed to have found a regular noodle in my Mongolian beef! Server was super nice and apologetic (even though I know it wasnt her fault), but after eating half the dish before finding the noodle, I practically lost my appetite and couldn't eat much when they brought me a new plate. The manager assured me the new plate was gfree, but it's still hard to enjoy it knowing it's only a matter of time before I get sick. 🙈🙈🙈 Cooks are obviously not careful about preparing gluten free dishes, and I am not convinced that the wok was dedicated gluten free. Manager said they the noodle likely flew in from another dish..... 🤦‍♀

I ate hear after seeing the reviews on this app. Did not disappoint. Food was good and did not get sick after. I saw a review on yelp saying someone NIMA tested it and came back with gluten but I didn’t get a reaction, so I’d go back again.

Their menus is clearly marked and there are a lot of choices. They even had GF hit and sour soup-which is hard to find. Wait staff is very friendly. You do order at a counter but the atmosphere is nice.

Visited Fan Tang yesterday with my gluten sensitive mom. She had the coconut curry and I have orange peel chicken. Both were excellent choices and neither of us experienced any adverse effects. We were pleased with the atmosphere, easy parking, and quick service. We will definitely be returning with our celiac family members.

I stumbled across the restaurant, and I'm so glad that I did. Everything that can be made gluten free is labeled clearly. The curry noodle dish is delicious, and with a nice kick! The waiter was great about letting me know if side sauces were safe for me.

I was concerned once I learned they use one wok which is not cleaned between each entree. The waiter said the wok cooks food at a very high heat so they believe gluten is killed. I decided to not chance it so left without ordering. We appreciated the thorough description provided by the waiter.

Quite a few clearly marked Gluten free options for appetizers, noodles, rice, meat, etc. Mom and I shared the spring rolls and one serving of Sesame Chicken and it was very tasty!
