Review
They asked if my gluten free mac and cheese was for an allergy/celiac or if it was preference. I told them celiac, they made sure to mark that on the receipt and the container with my food. I ordered the "gluten-sensitive" macaroni and cheese (with the pipette noodles). I didn't get sick from the food, which was good.

My kids and I have eaten here frequently (at the Plainfield location) and have never had a problem. When I ask for rice noodles they ask, “for preference or for allergy?” When I say, “for allergy,” they use separate pans.
Review
You have to be specific with them if it is a severe allergy/Celiac but I haven't been contaminated yet and I eat here often.
Review
All dishes can be ordered with rice noodles, can you can ask them to change gloves and use different pans to avoid cross contamination!!!! Never had a problem!
Review
I got sick as well from their food. Regardless of that, the food was not that tasty so I left unhappy on all accounts
Review
My son & I ate here ordering from the gf menu. we became ill immediately. Don't think they are careful to avoid cross contamination.

I was very excited to eat the gluten free Mac & cheese. We called to make sure ahead of time that everything would be cooked separately, and told them i had celiac. When I went to order in person I told them the same thing, and still ended up extremely sick sadly

Pad Thai is a good choice for gluten avoiders. They make gluten free noodles but I’m not sure about cross contamination. Many of the sauces have gluten, including the Mac and cheese sauce. Employee was knowledgeable and helpful. This is a good choice for a quick stir fry.

They have separate cookware they use for allergies and take cross contact very seriously. I have always been happy with the attention they take with my order when I mention gluten allergy.

The staff is really friendly and open to answer questions about their menu. The guy at the register even went to confirm the Alfredo sauce didn't have gluten for me.
