Delicious pho! I spoke with a very knowledgeable staff member and he said the only safe GF options is the pho. All other menu items marked gluten free are cross contaminated at some point in the making. I enjoyed the beef pho though and will definitely be back!

Delicious and good options. The counter staff was helpful and knowledgeable. I loved the crispy pork spring rolls and vermicelli salad!

Their pho made me very sick. :( I had consulted the staff on what to order and went with the suggestions in the other comments on here. This place is not safe or careful in the least. Avoid if you are celiac.

I’ve ordered the pho many times for takeout and have never been sick or disappointed - the broth is so light and flavorful at the same time! I haven’t felt comfortable ordering other items without talking to a member of the staff

Amazing pho dishes, knowledgeable about gluten and what I could and couldn’t eat. Fun atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommend the vegan pho with beef broth.

Be sure to clarify that you’re gluten free because even if things are marked gf, some of their sauces aren’t safe. A bit of an underwhelming experience dining there because of the outdoor situation and covid precautions, but overall the food was pretty tasty and I didn’t get sick!

I ordered the Coconut Curry with tofu and the fresh spring rolls. Both were great! No issues with gluten!

Great food, quite a few gluten free options. With the new COVID procedure for ordering thou it is difficult to request that the items be Celiac safe. The ordering is all done online, even when you are dining at the restaurant and there is no space to request any changes or add comments. But the food is very good and the staff was friendly and helpful once I was able to flag one down and speak to them in person. All in all a good experience over all.

I ordered the coconut curry, and made note in my online order that I had celiac, and the chef actually came out to talk to me when I picked up the food. He described their safety precautions, but also warned me he wasn’t 100% confident the curry wasn’t cross contaminated (I risked it based on what he described and was fine) and told me that the only thing he typically guarantees for Celiac Disease is the pho.

Clearly marked GF items on the menu, knowledgeable staff, ample options. Just get here when they open to avoid the lines - this place is popular for a reason!

I love the food! So very good! I am not celiac so I don't have to worry about cross contamination as much though.

I got the beef vermicelli which is listed as gluten free. I told the person who took my order that I gave celiac and explained cross contamination, he assured me everything would be GF. I made sure it was gf when they dropped off my food. After eating I knew it wasn't gf and talked to someone else who explained that they share the same fryer and the sauces on my dish were not gf. Not recommended for celiacs but my friend who can eat normal food liked his dish.
