Always a good option for a safe gf meal. They have a gluten free area of the kitchen where gf food is cooked separately and comes on special plates so you know it was prepared correctly. Not tons of options but the Changs Spicy chicken and fried rice are solid. The egg drop soup is great too!

Service here is very friendly, and the food on the gluten-free menu is reliable and in our experience very safe. PF Changs is one of the few chain restaurants where my symptomatic celiac hubs can enjoy a good meal. Alas, I find the food to be a little underwhelming and bland. 5 stars for service and allergy safety. 3.5 stars for the food itself.

They don’t have many options as I expected but all the ones are marked as GFO (Gluten Free Option). Let the waiter know I had a gluten allergy and got Mongolian Beef with Fried Rice. Food was good although a little pricey but felt fine afterwards. Great spot if you want some Asian food!

We visited for a late lunch last weekend and split the GF spicy chicken and GF broccoli & beef. I love that they offer brown rice too for a healthier carb. It was all really tasty, great service, and no reaction afterward.

Easy to order. Gluten free options clearly labeled on the menu and they come out on gold rimmed plates that are different from the regular plates so you know it was made in a separate area in the kitchen. And the food was yummy.

Great, have always loved PF Changs. Recently have to be gluten free/dairy free and there were plenty of great tasting options. Items either gluten free or have a gluten free option.

I really wanted this place to be safe but unfortunately I got sick 2 out of 3 times. Each time I visited I selected dishes which were least likely to encounter cross contamination (steamed rice, nothing breaded/fried) but no luck. The last time I ate here, I informed the waitress that I had celiac and without communicating she flat out just walked away to get someone else to wait on our table. It was very uncomfortable and I felt like a burden.

Unfortunately, I have not had a good experience eating at this restaurant. I have gotten very sick after eating from their gluten-free menu. If you are extremely sensitive to gluten or celiac, I’m not sure this is the place for you.

I am celiac & my nutritionist told me about PF Chang’s gf menu when I was first diagnosed. I finally tried it tonight for my pandemic birthday dinner (takeout) & was very impressed! I ordered easily off the gf online menu; the food was clearly marked with gf stickers; and the staff confirmed with me that my order was indeed gf when I picked it up. I’m thrilled to have this deliciously “normal” tasting option in my celiac life!

Ordered off their gluten free menu the chicken lettuce cups and egg drop soup. The food was delicious but gave me a lot of stomach gas and I did not have a fun time in the bathroom. May have been some cross-contamination

PF Chang’s does a great job with GF food - a separate menu, and in the kitchen separate utensils that have only been used for gf food and even plates that are a different color to ensure no accidental mix ups. The manager was great at explaining all of this to us.

Incredibly good Chinese food and fantastic service. See photos I took of my favorites.

I love the Egg Drop Soup! It is the best I've had anywhere. My other favorite is GF Fried Rice with Chicken. So good topped with a mixture of GF soy sauce, hot mustard and chili. Ask the wait staff to mix it at the table.

I had gone to lunch with my dad there a while back. We had ordered the same meal except mine was ordered gluten-free. I believe all that they had done was switched to soy sauce for tamari sauce. The food was very flavorful. They do have a small gluten-free menu also.

Staff did a wonderful job explaining GF options and answering my questions about cross contamination. My meal was served on a different-colored plate, signifying GF. I was quite impressed and very happy to eat Chinese food again! My husband said there was little difference between the regular Mongolian beef and the GF version. So I wasn't missing out. :)

I have eaten here many times. If you have Celiac Disease I'd stay away from the Chang's Spicy Chicken. They say it's gluten free but I have a reaction every time. Also make sure they bring you the Gluten Free option. On more than one occasion they brought me a non gluten free entree. And I wouldn't even bother with the drive through. They never get my order GF when I go through the drive through.

Food is excellent! I have been there several times and have never been sick yet. And I am extremely gluten sensitive. To make things better last time I went there after my Aunt's husband died and the server felt bad for her and sent her home with a free 'great wall of cake' (she's not gf). All in all knowledgeable staff amazing food. Go there!!!!!

Fabulous dinner--everything fresh and hot, very tasty. The waitperson was great about all GF requests, didn't miss a thing. The GF menu here is quite large, so it felt good to have so many choices! They even have a GF dessert that was delicious. Will definitely return!

Used to go here a lot pre pandemic but had not been in some time due to other options I can’t get at home. Wanted something fast so got an order to go. Was ready in 12 mins! Safe and marked gf. Be sure to ask for packets of gf soy sauce.

Menu clearly states gf options, and my dinner came out on a different color plate that designated it gf.

Food was tasty, I didn’t get sick, and it has definitely been a while since I have been able to get Chinese food due to my allergies.

They have items marked with “gluten free option available” on the menu and website

My Mongolian beef came out on a different colored plate than my friends food, I assumed that was to indicate an allergy/sensitivity

But got super sick on the way home— super disappointed as I used to go there a lot before I was diagnosed
