Fire Bowl Cafe

I've always loved their spicy coconut soup and I was so happy to find out it is GF after I was diagnosed with celiac. They have a dedicated GF menu and the manager was very understanding and assured me that the food was cooked in a separate wok. And I didn't get sick.

I eat here all the time and have never had a bad reaction (I have celiac). Not everything on the menu is gluten free but there's a good selection to choose from. I usually order the Coconut Curry Chicken stir fry with rice and spring veggies, and its delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve ordered the make your own bowls with GF ingredients many times and have not had any issues -

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff is nice and well educated on GF. It’s seems to be pretty safe. However I am not impressed with their food. I don’t like curry so maybe that is why; but their items without curry that are GF are pretty mediocre.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love this place! The menu is so easy to tell what’s gluten free. I had rice noodles with Lemon grass sauce and extra veggies. It was fantastic.

The staff was very pleasant. We had questions and Rhonda was happy to answer them. The food tasted the way we expected it would. It wasn't necessary but quite pleasant that we were served so quickly.

My daughter and I eat here all the time and have never had any issues. Not all sauces are gluten free, so be sure to get one that is, but they have vermacelli and flat rice noodles, neither of which I've found since I've been in Texas. The sauces are limited for GF, but I like what they have, and also the options to add on extra protein it veggies

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This was a solid 3 star experience. The menu is clearly marked, but not all that much is gf. It’s so hard with the masks nowadays to make my points on cross contact clear, I had to repeat myself like 5 times to make sure the woman taking my order understood. I felt ok ordering the Tom Kha soup. When it came out the woman who brought it didn’t seem to know if it was gluten free, so I went back inside and confirmed and it was. The soup was good but not fantastic. Friend got coconut curry stir fry with chow fun noodles and he said it was also good but not fantastic. 3 star meal, 3 star communication. I think it’s probably safe for celiac if you really put in the effort to make it clear what you need. I did like the thin rice noodles that came with the soup, but a previous review had commented on how wasteful the packaging was- everything was served in to-go containers, even for dine in like we did. Soup came in this big plastic container, the noodles in a paper take out container, stir fry was in a paper bowl, they dumped like five plastic things of forks and spoons on the tables. Plastic drinking cups, soy sauce packets (not gf), packs of salt and pepper, the works. Made me feel very wasteful and I don’t know why they do it that way. Way more waste than necessary which is why I bumped it down to 2 stars.
