No issues today with any of the food I got, though we did do take out so I am not 100% sure what the kitchen was like. I avoided soups based on other reviews, but had no issues eating and enjoyed the dinner!

We tested our food with a Nima sensor and four of seven dishes ordered had gluten in them. The kitchen actually argued then it turned out there was flour thickening the soups. My son and I both felt unwell after eating what tested negative. The restaurant is only safe if you test your food, and even then, you’re only testing a tiny portion and could still get glutened.

Tested 2 GF items with a Nima and came up as gluten found. Definitely a different batter from those with me that had the gluten version and assured it was GF. I ate a bit of it and 2-3 hours later spent 4 hours vomiting. I should have trusted the Nima.

Went to Greenleaves for the first time today! Had the sesame chicken and it was delicious! Staff was super attentive and kind. Heads up I was just looking at the soy sauce at the table and it was not GF and obviously neither were the fortune cookies. I read my fortune and gave the cookie to my significant other. 😂

I say I had an amazing experience, the only problem was I walked in with a family of 9. There is a whole gluten free menu, with many many many things! My family did get some gluten things and the servers doubled checked in the kitchen that the gluten free dishes were actually gluten free before set on the table.

Was a loyal customer but found out they lied about there GIG verification. Will never eat there again.
“The Gluten Intolerance Group (GIG) has become aware that Greenleaves Chinese Restaurant & Lounge in York, Maine is utilizing the GFCO certification mark on their menu and promoting that they have worked with GIG on the development of their menu. This restaurant has not worked with GIG, or its food service program GFFS to date. GFCO certifies products and does not certify menus or restaurants.

Another update: Recently learned that they use flour to thicken soups that are marked gluten free. I don’t believe they understand gluten free at all. This establishment is NOT safe for celiacs which is just heart breaking.
Found a regular noodle in my soup after eating most of it and just waiting to get sick now. Incredibly disappointed, used to love coming here but they don’t seem to care about GF anymore :(

Food was amazing! We ordered a ton of gluten free food, pork fried rice, chicken wings, sweet and sour chicken, boneless spare ribs, rice noodles, beef teriyaki. All the food came out very quickly and tasted amazing, easily the best gluten free Chinese food I've ever had!

We have been a few times and each time we are blown away. My son is so happy to go and know there's an entire menu he can choose from. We have tried so many items and they're great every time. We ordered on New Years Eve and I was hoping he wouldn't get sick but figured he might since it's such a big day for them but he didn't! We live 45 minutes away and go every few weeks because it's honestly that good and it's good to know we can safely eat somewhere without him getting sick. Thank you Green Leaves for caring about your clientele and going the extra mile to cater to allergies and celiac. It's appreciated more than you know.

Went twice no issues, excellent Chinese food.... worth the drive!
After going 4-5 times, I went for lunch this week, ordered from the gluten free menu, and got glutened .... not just contamination but the whole sick for 3 days glutened. Not sure what happened as I ordered from the GF menu but either the server or kitchen didn't pay attention. So, yes I would go back but I will reinforce they are placing a gluten free order to the kitchen to confirm.

I used to love this place, but I’ve been extremely ill with stomach pain, nausea, and vomiting the last two times I’ve eaten here. I have Celiac and eat out more than I should and this is the only place where I’ve had this issue.

Extensive GF menu and delicious food (so far I’ve had the sesame chicken, fried rice, moo goo gai pan) I have to stop myself from going all the time!
The staff was knowledgeable, so many gluten free options!! (They have a whole gluten free menu!) It has been so long since I’ve had Chinese food. It was delicious and I didn’t feel sick at all after eating
I am OBSESSED with this restaurant! One of the only places I've found to have gf bonelss spare ribs. Also LOVE the egg drop soup! I can finally share a meal with my friends when we go out because everything is so yummy we get it all gf and split!

I was more then thrilled to come across this restaurant! I’ve been gluten free for 2+ years and have been craving chinese dishes. I ordered pad tai, sushi, and fried rice which were all great! I didn’t have any reactions following. If you are celiac this is worth a drive up. The gluten free menu has a lot of options. I am excited to go again to try something new!
Delicious!! Pleasantly surprised by huge GF menu with lots of selections. So good we took an extra order of chix wings home with us! Would definitely recommend.
Wow! GREAT menu selection and the staff was knowledgeable. I did not get sick.

We’ve eaten here a few times and it continues to be our go-to for Chinese food. Very knowledgeable staff. They use water chestnut flour on all of their breaded dishes so we can enjoy orange chicken again! Very extensive gluten free menu.
Extensive certified gluten free menu. 3 out of the 4 of us have celiac. The staff was very friendly and the food came out fast. We will be back here again!

I have been looking for good GF Chinese food for years and I finally found it in York, Maine! The menu is extensive and I did not get sick! It's worth the trip from Boston. PS I also have a shellfish allergy and was OK with that.

great place and many choices for gluten free food- they even have a whole menu to choose gluten free from. I buy lots of food to take back to Massachusetts and they even pack it so that I can freeze soups etc once I get home.

We went to this restaurant last summer and it was amazing! They even asked if we wanted the GF food in a separate bag.
