I’ve never had a problem here! A moderately sized GF menu and GF food comes out with a special plate if dining in and with a big orange sticker if taking out. They’re also doing take-out during COVID-19, so it’s a nice option to have.

On Quality & Quantity

Tasty! My go-to is always Chang’s spicy chicken.

There ARE gluten free options for celiac and gluten sensitive but their food has changed drastically over time. They try to fool you with atmosphere and the "fancy" custom sauce but their food is seriously lacking. It tastes like it appeals to people who don't want to actually eat Asian inspired dishes but bland slop par for the course considering the stereotypical American fare. The Pad Thai is a joke. Buddha's Feast is absolutely depressing. My SO got the hot and sour soup and hated it. Way too expensive for the quality and quantity of food you get. This is not a complaint about the cooks themselves but the recipes, which are not decided by the location's staff but the company itself. It's a damn shame.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

A relaxing and tasty meal! They have a separate gf menu with a good selection, including an appetizer, a soup, sides, and a nice variety of entree options. Make sure if you have a gluten sensitivity that you let your server know, and that you order specifically off the gf menu. Our server was very nice about going back to the kitchen to answer any questions I had. They have separate pans and utensils for preparing gf food, as well as gf sauces. I ordered the egg drop soup (theirs is naturally gf with no modifications), and the gf ginger chicken and broccoli with white rice. The egg drop soup was very hearty and savory. The ginger chicken and broccoli was my go-to before I got diagnosed, and I was happy to find that the gf version tasted pretty much identical! It came out on a plate that had a very prominent PF Chang's logo on it, which marks it as a gf meal (so make sure your entree comes out on one of these). Also tried their homemade ginger beer, which was a zesty surprise! Other things to keep in mind, the soy sauce on the table isn't gf, but they can get you gf soy sauce if you ask for it. Felt great afterwards, would definitely recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Have a gluten free menu with a few options and gluten free soy sauce to go on the side. Also the edamame is not gluten free

So happy with our meal! This is our 2nd visit to a PF Chang’s! My son and husband have CD. Our waiter was very knowledgeable about cross contamination. The GF came on different plates! I would recommend this 100%!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had egg drop soup and chicken lettuce wraps, both gluten free. Both were delicious. They serve the gluten free entrees on special plates so everyone in the kitchen is (or should be at least) aware the entree is gluten free. There is a slight up-charge for gluten free but to me it's worth it. There was a happy hour special from 4-6 p.m. and the chicken lettuce wraps were $3.50 off.

Dedicated Gf lunch menu and sauces. Perfect!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Always had a good and safe experience here. Had a waitress who was very familiar with celiac and made sure my food was safe. When the wrong lettuce wraps came out she sent them back before even coming to our table. I really appreciated it.

I love P.F. Chang's BEFORE I went gluten-free and AFTER I became gluten-free. One of my friends and I went to P.F.Chang's this past weekend and my experience was wonderful. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease over a year ago which has made dining out challenging. I was well taken care of by Salam (server), Christine (bartender) and the manager. When I spoke to Salam about my dining needs, she took it seriously and elevated it to the manager. The manager came and spoke with me and was very kind. I was able to order for the gluten-free menu and all the food was great. Additionally, I wanted to engage in the spirits and was able to do so. The bartender, Christine was knowledgeable about what drinks did or did not have gluten. She made two different drinks for me and they were great!!!! I cannot say how happy I was about my dining experience. I did not get sick at all while I was there or 24 hours later. This is why they got 5 stars from me.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We were excited about the GF menu but wish the server would have known that the GF version if the Buddah's Feast was not like their regular version which is stir fried in a sauce with tofu. Instead I was served a plate of steamed vegetables. If the regular sauce is not GF, why not stir fry it in the lettuce wrap sauce (they were yummy) or the beef a la Sichuan sauce? Clearly I ordered the wrong thing. Lesson learned...ask questions when ordering off the GF menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly. Good experience.

Love this place. All the GF options taste just like the real ones, and I ask my friends/family to order the GF version of their meal so we can all share. The GF food is served on different looking plates as well, which makes me feel safe when I see it brought to the table!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

the best gluten free chinese restaurant. Period.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious food! If you make a reservation its really easy to be seated! Love their gluten free menu!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love that I can easily and safely order gf food online for pickup. They put bright orange stickers that say gluten free on all of the containers.

I appreciate feeling safe at an Asian restaurant. Maybe more will follow their lead.

Delicious and safe as usual. I can only say good things about this location and theyve all been mentioned in the other reviews! Knowledgeable staff, large and delicious gf menu, not really any worry about cross contamination. Yum!

Lots of GF options here...rare among big restaurants. Accommodating staff and the food is top notch. Highly recommend.

I am so happy that they added some of the deleted menu items back. It makes the gf menu more complete. Good understanding of cross contamination & different plates for gf dishes. I also like that the gf menu is part of the regular menu so you aren't asking for a different menu or holding something different that everyone else in your party (and can see the prices).

I have to admit, this could be my most favorite dining experience since I've become gluten free. They offer shrimp and chicken proteins, in many of their entrees. they usually have gluten free beer. and the best part I almost always have leftovers

By far the MOST accomodating restaurant I've been to. 1. They have GF menu with various options. 2. If two people at the same table orders the same dish (GF and non-GF), they have plates especially designated for GF food so there's no mix-up from the kitchen to your table. GF plates has a black lined circle around the plate with "PF Chang" imprint on it. All other plates are bland white. 3. Best of all, they even offer GF dessert! A rich chocolate dome flourless cake. Make room for it!! 4. They have GF stickers that they put on take out containers for GF food that you take home. At most restaurants they offer GF dishes but when it's dessert time, they tell you "Sorry we dont have anything for you". Usually not a problem for me, but tell that to a kid (my son) is a different story.

always been more than helpful. good food at decent prices. and the gf selection and menu has come a long way!!

I ordered all Gluten free for my wife on Mother’s Day and unfortunately with Celiac she got so sick. It’s now 1 week later and she still feels sick. I reached out to the Fresno store and got no response from them. Very disappointed. We go to the Monterey store on a monthly basis and my wife has had no issues at all. Fresno sucks. This is the second bad experience with this store. Never again.

Comment

Gave me a severe celiac reaction. Frustrating for two reasons because the gluten free option costs more and of course the week-long fun that is feeling like death. Their solution was to give me a gift card. Anyone want a gift card?

P.F.Chang was a great option for gluten free food. They have gone above and beyond to ensure you have an enjoyable experience. We ordered several gluten-free options but had no idea they provide gluten free sauces and soy sauce. Completely impressed by the food options.

Amazing! So many options and sauces for gluten free.

Ordered out during quarantine. GF Chang’s chicken and GF pad Thai are specified on GF menu and marked with stickers, but we tested with Nima Sensor and both came back with Gluten Found. Maybe quality control was off given limited staff during Covid lockdown, not sure. But a bit unsettling. I think we have ordered and tested in past and tests came back ok, but I don’t remember exactly.

I hope our experience is not normal, and I understand things are very different for all restaurants right now, but unfortunately the gluten free food we ordered was not gluten free. My son has been sick all day after our delivery last night. We'll have to see if he wants to give it another shot when the restaurants reopen for in person dining.

Celiac friendly?

No

I told the waiter I was GF with celiac and ordered a GF option, but the order that was brought to me was not GF. I ate a few bites before realizing that my plate was the same as everybody else’s. The waiter hadn’t even coded my order correctly on the ticket. He apologized saying he thought there wasn’t a difference in preparation between the regular and GF spicy chicken. Do not take your chances at this restaurant if you have celiac. It made me sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Orders GF Mongolian Beef and Chicken Fried Rice. Both tested on Nima sensor as safe! Mongolian Beef was really tasty but the chicken fried rice didn’t taste like much as it lacked seasoning and enough tamari to add flavor. Heard the server at a table next door saying that they don’t put the edamame on the menu as GF because it comes pre-packaged and they can’t guarantee there wasn’t cross-contamination before they handle it. Their servers seemed well training on GF protocol and I liked how they use different plates to distinguish Went again and Nima teared GF Beef with Broccoli and think that was really good too

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Went today and the server was very informed about our gluten allergy and all accommodations. Double checked each entree multiple times I was very happy with our service

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was aware of celiac. I had chicken fried rice it was delicious and great to be able to have restaurant fried rice again!

Does not test gluten free. I have tried 3 times. My tester keeps sayi g not safe.

This is my go to restaurant with friends and family. I've eaten here dozens of times and never had a reaction and I'm VERY sensitive to cross contamination. Fantastic service every time.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

GF menu is limited, but safe! They really know how to avoid cc and take precautions. The Mongolian beef was delicious and I did not get sick.

Celiac friendly?

Always excellent! We’ve eaten GF Chang’s a zillion times and it’s always perfect. Staff is aware, food is great - love the lettuce wraps! Always great!

Separate GF menu with plenty of options! Staff knows what they’re doing and there’s even gf soy sauce upon request. Some good options!

GF menu with plenty of options. The Mongolian beef is amazing! So satisfied

Got very sick after eating here. Requested gluten free dishes but they were clearly not. No problems at other restaurants from this chain, stay away from this particular one!

My Nima found gluten in their Gluten Free lettuce wrap.s.

They were able to accommodate my sons celiac with some GF noodles with chicken. I enjoyed some amazing chicken and beef. Prices were reasonable, we called ahead for reservations and everyone felt good following meal. Even came home with leftovers! Had a good variety of options on the GF menu. Ask to sit outside on the covered 2nd floor outdoor patio.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was delicious here! I had a shrimp dish with lobster sauce and I also took a beef and broccoli to go. They have a separate gf wok. It was also easy to avoid dairy. I am supersensitive and I did not get sick. I highly recommend this place and I look forward to going back!

Amazing food and amazing staff only problem was the first time I ordered I asked for the food that was on there special gluten free menu and she came back for a reason with a drink and I double checked to make sure that it was all safe and gluten free and she said oh your gluten free and I said yes and she had to redo the whole order but besides that it was amazing always double check if you go there

Celiac friendly?

No

This used to be a go to place for me and other locations I have not had any issues. But twice now I have gotten sick here ordering the GF spicy chicken. Two times I have had positive Nima sensor readings as well. No longer in my group of restaurants I trust.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My meal was fine, but others in my group were less impressed with theirs. Unfortunately, we had 4 sets of dirty cutlery at our table, which is a real turnoff. We had 2 Celiacs in our group, so we went because of the gluten-free menu. But it was only after we all started eating that we learned they no longer have gluten-free desserts. We had 3 birthdays in our group, and 2 of them are Celiac... And one of the Celiacs is a kid. What a HUGE disappointment. Why bother having a GF menu if you can't accommodate through all the courses.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food, knowledgeable staff and great service.

Celiac friendly?

No

Nice GF menu, but I totally got glutened. I had the Mongolian beef off the GF menu. It has happened to me before at other chain locations. I'm not sure how trustworthy this chain is.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We have eaten here 3 or 4 times since being gluten free. They have a gluten free menu and prepare their gluten free items in a separate area of their kitchen. Gluten free meals also come out on different plates so it is clear they are GF. The food is good and we have felt comfortable with all of our visits.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is the only decent place inside security to get a meal, other than salad if you need gf. Service great, quick, and staff very knowable. They even printed a "custom" menu for my husband who needs both gf and df. They also took special care with our daughter's nut and sesame allergies. The only reason they aren't getting 5 stars is that they did not have gf soy/tamari which made my selection of Budah's Delight (all veggies) steamed, and bland. However, supplementing with some of my husband's sauce from his entree helped.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ate here for the first time after being diagnosed with Celiac disease. I’m happy to say I found somewhere safe to eat as I am super sensitive. I sat at the bar, asked for a GF menu, and the bartender was super friendly and knowledgeable. She explained that the kitchen prepares GF dishes in a separate area and all items on the GF menu are guaranteed to be safe. I ate the spicy chicken with brown rice and broccoli off the GF menu and had zero issues. Thank you PF Chang’s, I will be back ❤️

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food was wonderful, came out on a different colored plate to denote gluten free. Server was knowledgeable, it appeared they understood cross contamination well.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Three “celiacs” ate without consequences. Food was good. Our waiter, Vincent, was attentive and carefully listened to the food order. Celiac orders arrived on specially designed plates to assure that they didn’t contain gluten. However, the hostess and seating was disorganized and chaotic. We called ahead, made reservations, and still waited over an hour in a cramped waiting area. And, there were several available tables that were not cleaned.

Celiac friendly?

The waitress was very understanding of celiac and let us know that all GF items are even served on specific plates with PJ Chang’s written on it and red bowls for sauces...so if you order GF and it’s not on one of those identifying plates then it isn’t GF. The portions were filling and a amount of GF choices

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly. Just make sure you ask and double check sauces. All egg drop soup is GF. Eat here often!

Celiac friendly?

I sure wish I read the prior reviews as I would not have gone to this establishment. My GF meal came early from a different server. First red flag. Luckily I only had a couple of bites as my server stopped me saying mine was not GF. Manager comped both meals. Nice. Now I get to Be sick for a week! Oh joy!!!

Celiac friendly?

PF Chang’s is always good and safe. Communicate and tell them you need GF. Well trained and structured. Soy sauce has TONS of gluten. They get it and watch it.
