Menu items marked GF. Shared fryer so don't eat the rib tips. I have had chicken and green beans, pad thai, drunken noodles, chicken and broccoli, fresh rolls, garlic fried rice and family fried rice. All were great and didn't get sick. I have eaten here multiple times and the only time I had issues was with the ribs.

Peanut Sauce Thai is still take-out only (at least as of Jan. 2023). The food is tasty, but pretty standard Thai takeout fare. All gluten free items on the menu are labeled. Like others have said, they use GF soy sauce, so you can feel pretty confident eating here. I've never gotten sick here.

Most of their menu is GF. They use GF soy sauce. The fried foods are not Celiac safe at all.

Delicious, knowledgeable, one of our favorites.

Great phad thai (egg free with tofu). We placed our order online and it was quick and easy. It was delicious and so many gluten free options!

I’m celiac and have never had any problems here. Also, it is the best tasting Thai food I’ve had in a long time. Reminds me of the excellent Thai food I could find in the Bay Area near San Francisco. I love the Pad Thai with tofu. I really appreciate how they have gf items listed and will verify that the dipping sauce and everything is gf because many restaurants here in Tacoma do not have gf dipping sauces for things like fresh spring rolls.

My absolute FAVORITE restaurant. Found this hidden gem on this app, and I have ZERO regrets. So many gluten free options that taste absolutely delicious. The Pad Thai is 10 stars out of 5 - there are days I dream about it and the peanut sauce. Always get EXTRA peanut sauce it’s so good you want to drink it alone and they give you giant side option servings. The curries don’t come with rice but it’s only $2.00 and definitely enough to for at least two people or four small children. The fresh rolls with the gf sauce are 7 out of 5 stars. The Pad Orange Sauce is 8 out of 5 stars (it has real orange slices!!). The Pas Graprau (Basil) is 8 out of 5 stars. The sweet sticky rice is 10 out of 5 stars. The only thing I’ve tried and didn’t like is the sweet sticky rice with mango because the mango when I tried it was too firm. Everything else is so amazing that whenever I’m in town I make it a point to come here. The prices are reasonable, the customer service is amazing, and they actually honor their spiciness levels which I appreciate (a 2 star spice level is ACTUALLY 2 stars and not a fiery hot 5 making you question how spicy you really can eat). Authentic and awesome - give it a try! PS. I have a very sensitive gluten allergy and I have never had any reaction to the gf items I have gotten from here for the past year (6x I’ve been here)!

My very favorite restaurant and I feel suuuper safe here! The whole menu is almost Gluten free and the staff is very careful and knowledgeable.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I definitely ate my full here! Almost everything on the menu is gluten free. I felt very comfortable asking questions. Large portions. I had the Drunken Noodles with beef. Tasty but needed more salt. They're now on uber eats too! Give it a go!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Unfortunately I was glutened after eating here. I was very excited to read all the good reviews, it is hard to find celiac safe restaurants. The place was little but nice. The entire menu apart from one item was marked gluten free. I had the pad thai, which tasted very good, and was a large portion. But about an hour after eating I started feeling very nauseous, By the time another hour had gone by I had all the symptoms of being glutened, which then lasted a few days.

Celiac friendly?

No

Eaten here more times than I can count and never gotten sick or anything. The food is always good and you get rather large serving sizes too. The mango or family fried rice is a favorite at my house.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Peanut Sauce is clean, delicious and always celiac safe. I’ve been eating here for two years and have never had an issue.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I explained I came because I saw most meals were gluten free. The server immediately said they were told me what wasn’t, etc. Ordered, she brought me soup, assuring me it was gf before I asked. Meal was great and I would go back. I am Celiac and had no reaction.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have been here many many times with no problems. Some of the food is very good: crispy duck, garlic pepper, cashew nut, ginger. The pad Thai and fried rice are average.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious food and excellent service!They have no problems doing gf, in fact most of the menu says “gluten free” next to the item. I’ve never gotten sick and I’ve eaten here at least 10 times. Their Phad Thai is wonderful and I also recommend the Rama Chicken.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was so delicious and very good pricing. 10/10 would recommend

My wife is super sensitive to gluten, so it's a little tricky ordering Asian food with sauces. But this place is awesome! All gluten-free options are clearly marked in their menu, and there is a lot of choices. I love the online ordering, and our order has always been waiting for me when I get there (I love about 3 miles away).

Service was great, lots options, food was mostly good. We got a few things and liked the Massumum (sp?) curry the best. The herbal chicken tasted and smelled like feet. But, otherwise, the meal was great and neither of us had any kind of reactions. Would definitely return.

The entire menu is labeled beautifully. They were so friendly and knowledgable. I will definitely be back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent experience. knowledgeable staff.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I've eaten here many times without any problems. All the food is dairy free and 95% of the menu is gluten free.

Everything is clearly marked on the menu and the food is delicious. The portions are huge, too, and the number of gluten-free options is a little intimidating.

The waitresses know what is and isn't gluten free. They will show you what you can have. Ate here twice and didn't get sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They are very understanding when you say gluten free. The food was excellent.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love Peanut Sauce Thai. I'm very sensitive to gluten (not celiac) and often get sick after eating from gluten free Thai restaurants. Not Peanut Sauce though! The quality and service is equally amazing. I make the drive from Puyallup to South Tacoma for this food!

I ordered the pad see ewe, asked that it be made gluten free, and was told it is always made gluten free. Next day my tummy was a mess. I know all of their soy sauces are gluten free but I wonder about their oyster sauce or fish sauce which is commonly used in pad see ewe.

Outstanding, safe meal -- so great! Wonderful hostess told us that everything was available GF except for fried items. Their 3 soy sauces (see photo) they cook with are GF and she said they are available at most Korean markets. Can't wait to get home and buy them! I also can share the photos with restaurants to see if they use this brand which is safe. I ordered Pad See Ewe with chicken which was so good! My daughter ordered the Drunken Noodles which she said was delicious. We also had the Fresh Rolls for an appetizer. They were beautiful and tasted great as well. The peanut sauce for dipping was the best. Really lovely people working there, eager to help. Fast service as we were exhausted and wanted to hurry and we got tons of food. Leftovers tomorrow:0). This place is a real gem!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was amazing, and the staff was extremely accommodating and knowledgable! Thoroughly satisfied my desire for Thai, and no negative reactions at all!! Yummy!!

The staff of Peanut Sauce is friendly and knowledgeable regarding the ingredients of each dish; they quickly suggest modifications to keep a menu item safe for gluten free eating. Service has been prompt and food quality excellent each time we've stopped here for dinner.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

A little on the slow side. People came in after us got their food first and left before we ever got our meal. When it finally came it was good. My daughter with food allergies liked her fried rice. Then back to waiting forever for my bill and doggy bags. Oh and no free refills on drinks :(

This was so yummy! Most things were able to be made gluten free. I will definitely go back.

The waitress was very knowledgable about g-free. She said they use only g-free soy sauce and noodles in kitchen. I ate a VERY tasty Pad See Ew with tofu. My husband doesn't need to eat g-free, but his Pad Thai was also very good. I highly recommend this restaurant. I would go back tomorrow, except we're on a road trip and I'll be in Oregon tomorrow!
