Got very sick from getting gluten free sweet & sour veggies with brown rice from here, I specified that I have a gluten allergy but must have gotten glutened anyway because I’m having a very bad gluten reaction :( not as safe as I thought it was, I def won’t be back.

Celiac friendly?

No

Unfortunately, I had a bad reaction from this location, which is a bummer since the food is so good.

They do have a dedicated GF menu, it's small, but it exists! moving in the right direction. My favorite GF dishes are Pei We I spicy chicken and the Vietnamese chicken rolls, dipped in the sweet Chile sauce instead of the gluten-laden peanut sauce. When you order GF to go, the container has a special "gluten free" sticker on it, which is nice that they go to the trouble.

I love their GF Pei Wei Spicy Shrimp & Chicken. You can read my full review here: http://www.gfinorlando.com/2013/11/pf-chang-pei-wei-and-gluten-free.html

Many GF items to chose from.

On Safety

Staff has no knowledge of gluten-free vs. regular menu items, and has on 2 separate occasions at this location served me the non gluten-free entree instead of what was ordered. After this, they tried to argue with me and tell me that “they were sure it was fine and all of the chicken entrees are already gluten free” (not true). Not safe for celiac - stay far away.

Everytime I have gone here lately I have gotten glutened...it just seems like they dont care anymore. I stopped even trying pei wei because of this. Its a shame really because the food is good.

All fo any quality comments i could make are eclipsed by the fact that it isnt safe to eat here if you are gluten free for medical reasons. Dont even bother.

Comment

This location has really gone down hill in the last year or so. Dont even bother...I have been glutened numerous times. Dont believe the other review. They havent changed.

Celiac friendly?

No

Friendly staff, clean restaurant. Unfortunately My first ever meal from this franchise made me sick. I ordered the sick GF Mongolian shrimp with brown rice. Tasted awesome and they provided GF soy sauce but within 15 minutes my stomach was hurting.

Separate Gluten free menu and gluten free soy sauce. It was delicious. The first safe Chinese I've had in a long time.

I ordered a carry out gluten free dish (ginger broccoli) from their GF menu. I tested it at home with the Nima sensor, and it contained gluten. Did not eat it as I have celiac disease and cannot eat any gluten.

I love Payway :) it’s celiac friendly :)

PF Changs light, so to speak. Really good, fast chinese with lots of GF options. Owned by PF Changs

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Easy location, just after security. Had never eaten at a Pei Way before, so I was a little nervous. They do have a sign up about allergens and how they can't guarantee cc, but I had the original Pei Way and it was good! Spicy and fresh. Didn't make me sick, which was the best part!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have been here several times and enjoy the sweet and sour chicken and original chicken and shrimp. There are other choices as well. Yummy. i always tell them gluten free and severe allergy. takes a little longer to prepare but never sick. they have tamari in bottles but if i want any i only get the packets.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Chicken fried rice was good, didn’t get sick.

I got their Gluten Free Sweet and Sour chicken (since that’s also DF) for the 1st time back in early January to-go and I got sick. But my kids have been begging to come back, so I braved it again and ate at location. Ordered same thing since I can’t have dairy and any of their GF meals do contain dairy. I was prepared to be sick but thankfully wasn’t! Meal was good and I was very happy to not be sick afterwards. Not sure what happened a few months ago when I was gluten’d, maybe Cross Contamination issue or they gave me non-GF the 1st time. I would say this place is a roll of the dice. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Celiac friendly?

No

Updated my previous 1 star review. We used to eat here frequently and had several bad experiences and stopped for about 2 years. We recently tried it again as the gluten free menu had changed and we had an excellent experience. It just goes to show that a staff that cares makes a HUGE difference in the allergy friendly food quality. I wouldn't guarantee is celiac safe BUT as someone with a severe gluten reaction, I had no trouble after our most recent visit.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent service here! They were very careful preparing my food and the sweet and sour chicken was fabulous! Great service, happy place!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Clearly marked gluten free options on the large wall menu when you enter, delicious flavorful food, and knowledgeable staff

I, too, had the Pei Wei Chicken (w/ the cauliflower rice). I was also surprised when it was deep fried, but no issues.

Eat here frequently and haven’t been sick! It makes me nervous because the shrimp come breaded but I’ve asked about this multiple times and they said they use potato flour. It’s delicious and I eat here pretty frequently and haven’t been sick (the customer service is lacking though)

I like Pei Wei a lot, but their meals can be a hit or miss. They are not consistent. I go because it’s affordable and convenient for me. Especially as take out.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

So far so good- chains like this make me nervous, but we've eaten here several times with no issue. Extensive menu, and to-go orders have always been clearly labeled.

AMAZING ! Food is top notch and the gluten free options are incredible. And ya made fresh in an open kitchen concept. Bowls that you can get rice even fried rice. Oh and cauliflower rice too!! It’s my favorite place. I just wish they had more locations. Give it a try

Love their gluten free options!! Cauliflower rice is the best

Menu says GF, but staff have no idea.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love the sweet and sour chicken and shrimp combo. They are very careful and cook separately after changing gloves. I’ve never gotten sick and I am very sensitive.

Staff pretty gluten free clueless. Got the lettuce wraps gluten free. They used noodles in stead of rice? I guess they add gluten to their white rice? Swimming in water. Kind of a mess to eat. They also have changed their $2.19 ice tea selection. Yuck! Asked me twice if everything was good and I said no. Said sorry and ran! What kind of customer service is that? At least they asked??? Lol. Very disappointing 😞

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My favorite. Pei wei original and fried rice. They even label it GF on takeout packages. amazing

Celiac friendly?

Yes

GF clearly marked on take out containers. Separate pans & utensils are used in prep. Several great menu options! We eat here about once a month this year and never been glutened.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Separate gluten free menu. Delicious options. Food comes out labeled gf. They also have gf soy sauce.

Celiac friendly?

No

Staff was very friendly and forthcoming when I asked how gf kung pow chicken. I was told they do bread the chicken in potato starch and then fry it. I asked if they have a dedicated gf fryer and was told they do not. 😢 Not celiac safe..

Celiac friendly?

No

Although I have loved eating here before being diagnosed with celiac, I would no eat here being gf. I have tried to eat here countless times and every time I end up getting sick. Although I wish I could eat here, it is not the best for someone with celiac disease.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Have eaten here numerous times. Great GF menu. The employees are well educated and accommodating. Ask for GF soy sauce. Food great!! Recommended.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I will say this my go to place for Asian food. I have ordered most of their gluten free items and all have been delicious. Overall, their food and service has been great!

They offer gluten free options, and do a pretty good job. No restaurant can be perfect. Probably NOT a good option for celiacs with mid to high sensitivity.

Celiac friendly?

No

They said they would take precautions but you could tell they didn’t care. Didn’t clean anything and two of our dishes had gluten noodles in them when we specifically told them we had celiac

Celiac friendly?

No

Ordered GF Mongolian Chicken. Told them to take allergy protocols. Yet, dinner had pieces of noodles in it. They did refund our meal, but now my son is likely to be sick. I don’t trust them to take appropriate protocols in the future. Do not recommend. :-(

Celiac friendly?

Yes

If you don't like spicy, they basically have one option - sweet and sour. It's good, but that's it. UPDATE: menu is WAY better now, lots of options

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I really enjoy the Kung Pao shrimp! So crispy and delicious. It’s nice that they offer menu items that PF Chang’s doesn’t offer.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a new and improved gluten free menu. They even offer cauliflower rice now! I still find most sauces too sweet or greasy though.

Celiac friendly?

No

Several options but be wary of cross-contamination.

Don’t trust it! Got sick, food is everywhere for cc. Asked server when they brought it if it was gluten free. He was like yeah the chicken is. I’m like I got the beef! He’s like that’s what I meant.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I tested the gluten free fried rice with my nima and it came back gf but advise caution because only God knows what pans they use for their gf food.

I'm gluten intolerant. Went there yesterday and made sure they understood, but I had a bad reaction. Not going back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve been getting a few GF meals here and it makes me happy. I’ve missed Chinese food!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They’ve added several gluten free options: King Pao, Mongolian, Pei Wei Original, Sweet and Sour, Ginger Broccoli, and Fried Rice bowls! The Edamame, Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps, and Asian Chopped Salad are also GF. I didn’t double check, but it looks like each item is cooked up in its own wok.
