We got the wine drunk pork belly and the char-grilled chicken teriyaki; the pork belly was super flavorful & the better of the two - but both were great! I’d probably try the spicy char-grilled next time. Specific area of the kitchen for gluten free meals!

90% of the menu is gluten free by design, and website language shows that they get it. Really good takeout! Got the pork and rice and really liked it. No issues.

Yes, this is “safe” in terms of being gluten free, but the overall safety of the food was questionable since the inside of this restaurant was absolutely disgustingly dirty. Also was in a super sketch location. We were visiting from out of town and pretty disappointed with it.

Joe and Lucy are AMAZING and are really wanting to support the gluten free community in Seattle. They have delicious food, have separate kitchen space (and fryer!) and very reasonable prices, not to mention they are so lovely, accommodating and kind. I would recommend to any celiac or person that is gluten sensitive!

I had the Chicken Teriyaki and the Popcorn Chicken and they were so delicious! They have a great statement explaining their cross contamination protocol and their menu has some awesome gluten free options. It was so good, I had to order from here twice during my trip!

Great write up of their CC protocol on their website. Really good food especially the chicken and they have safe French fries as well. Friendly service. A small counter to eat in but more of a take out spot.

Nearly everything on their menu is gluten free. Chicken sandwich includes a giant slab of chicken and gf bun option, though it's Udi's and very crumbly when you try to bite into it. I usually end up eating it without the bun as it gets pretty messy. Most sides are also gf but most of the beverages have dairy in them. They use separate, dedicated equipment for their wheat-containing orders and don't use wheat flour in the kitchen.

After learning about Hangry Panda, I now go weekly. They are very aware of celiac and cross contamination. They have a whole statement about it on their website which includes all their precautions. Eaten here so many times and have never been glutened.

We have one celiac member of the family and two who are gluten intolerant. Everything from Hangry Panda was delicious and no one had any reaction to the food. We really appreciate all of the precautions they take and how clearly they mark what is and is not gluten free. We will definitely order from here again!

I ordered a caramel milk tea and the cucumber salad, and got severely glutened. Can’t say for sure, but it seemed to be from the milk tea and not the cucumber salad, as I was fine until I drank the tea, and each sip made it worse. Very disappointed since I came specifically because of the gluten- free menu. I would not recommend the risk for celiacs.

Wonderful food and very knowledgeable about cross contamination! I had the tofu spicy teriyaki and wine drunk pork belly. I also had the caramel bubble tea! I am extremely sensitive and did not get sick. It's very delicious food. It had been so long since I had bubble tea that I came back the next day and got the panda milk! I highly recommend!

This is one of the unicorn restaurants that has both unbelievably great food and real knowledge about how to cater to the gluten-free crowd. I was a little hesitant to try them after I saw that they were doing away with their dedicated gluten-free prep cook, after they reported that somebody with Celiac have had a reaction. However, I've eaten here numerous times and always felt great. And the food is amazing! The Teriyaki and wine drunk pork belly are our go-tos, and the panda milk tea is so unique and delicious. One of our favorite spots in Seattle!

I ordered the popcorn chicken and fries, and it was well seasoned and juicy. The Hong Kong Caramel Milk Tea was excellent and I will most definitely go back. I’m Celiac and I didn’t have a any reaction to any of the food. Check it out!

The popcorn chicken is delightfully crunchy. Most of the menu is gluten free and looks delicious. They have an option to specify Celiac on their online ordering platform. I felt very safe, and I'm looking forward to next time!

Joe was so friendly and helpful! Just about everything on the menu is gluten-free, and they have a dedicated frier! My husband (non-celiac) and I (celiac) ordered waffle fries, popcorn chicken, a spicy chicken sandwich, spicy teriyaki chicken, and two boba drinks, all of which was gluten free! Definitely a must-try if you’re in the area. :)

Joe and Lucy have created in the brief month they have been open a delicious menu and friendly service. They are knowledgeable and excited to help create excellent food for not just their gluten consuming customers but for those of us that need to avoid gluten. They have actually hired a person whose job is to cook the gluten free menu items. Amazing people. Please support them!

Delicious, allergen-conscious dining.

There's no two ways about it- Hangry Panda wants you to eat without any problems. They will go to absurd lengths to ensure you do not have any issues. More on that later.

There's a great gluten free menu, dedicated fryer for gf, and you can specify online if you're gluten-friendly, gluten-sensitive or celiac. They have an array of other allergen-free options you can specify on their website when you order (and on some delivery apps as well), although some options are simply not feasible; the dedicated frier is for gf items and therefore they cannot guarantee no cross-contamination with some things if you were to try ordering something egg-free and fried, for example.

I don't really begrudge them for it, as they do everything they can to guarantee you do not have any problems and will call you personally to make sure your personal intolerance is taken into account. For example, the weekend evenings are the busiest time for them, and if they cannot safely prepare your food, they will reach out to let you know instead of making you sick. (note: I listed them having a dedicated gluten free kitchen space because they are in the process of creating that space which may be in use by the time you read this review. As of right now, they do completely clean the workspace for sensitive people, I did not have a reaction.)

Food is great. It's teriyaki and fried chicken. What's not to love?
