We have ate here before with no problems, but tonight my celiac son got sick:(. We asked them to make it for a severe allergy but sadly they did not. We are sad because the food tastes delicious.

My husband has celiac. We've been eating yummy food from Happy Panda for several years now, and he has never had a gluten reaction. We love the sesame chicken the best!

I had the gluten free sesame chicken. It was very good and I did not get sick after eating it!

They only use dark meat for their gluten free food and light meat for the non gluten free food so that it stays separate and is easy to differentiate.

I always come here for my Chinese food. The sweet and sour chicken meal combo is delicious! The chicken comes with steamed jasmine rice, and they have gluten free soy sauce packets. Their egg drop soup is really good too.

The owners child has Celiac Disease so they are very knowledgeable about precautions needed to be taken for people with the disease.

Other Characteristics

• Good for takeout

I tried this place a few times before I got sick and stopped going. I’m very sensitive, but I’d say this place isn’t celiac safe. Good food, sad they can’t accommodate my needs

Celiac friendly?

No

One reviewer said they have breaded sweet and sour chicken but not according to their menu and I called and they said it can't be made gluten free

Celiac friendly?

No

This was some of the worst Chinese food I’ve had.

Breaded GF sweet and sour chicken! Lots of GF options clearly marked. My daughter loved it!

Food is good for the price. Ate here growing up...tried it again recently after learning they have tons of GF items but i got sick. Discovered they have a shared fryer...so I’m assuming thats the culprit.

Celiac friendly?

No

It was fun to have the option of GF. Everything was tasty but the need more spice!

Breaded. Gluten free. Chinese. First time eating that in a decade! So so good!!! No issues afterwards. Menu was clearly labeled with what gluten free ingredients were.

they have several different items you can order from their Gluten free menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I got very sick after eating here. I am so disappointed!

THEY HAVE BREADED GLUTEN FREE THINGS (I recommend the panda chicken or sesame chicken) AND BBQ PORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and they're delicious :D

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Chef's wife became celiac so he made most of the menu gluten free!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My daughter said it is her newest favorite restaurant.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Yum! Many of their menu items have gluten free alternatives! I had the gluten free fried rice and gluten free sesame chicken, both were delicious!!! (: I have celiac and did not get sick, however I've only been once so unsure of consistency.

I have celiac disease. I have eaten here many times (20 +) and I have not had a problem at all. When ordering gluten free I make sure to let them know I have a severe allergy and that I can get very sick from cross contamination. As there is wheat in the kitchen there is always a risk of cross contamination. The only 100% safe place for me is cooking my own food at home. The risk is small and I am comfortable eating here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

If you have Celiac DO NOT eat here. I had a supposedly gluten free meal there and ended up with a bad reaction the next day..Asian places in general are very risky.

Celiac friendly?

No

great GF menu
