You can order a few of the Asian entrees prepared gluten free! They even offer gf lettuce wraps and a dessert! If you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary they bring out a sparkler with dessert!

Ate here with my 9 year old daughter who is celiac. She ordered the fried rice with chicken and steamed snow peas. Our server acknowledged her allergies and told the kitchen. She really enjoyed her meal and did not get sick

Ugh. I love Chang's. LOVE. So it's hard for me to admit that I've been glutened here several times. Kept going back because I didn't want to believe it, but the third time in a row was too much. T_T Why, Chang's, Why?!

My mother and I came here for my birthday (three weeks ago). We had just gotten off the road after driving for over a hour(stayed in he area). The waiter was very knowledgeable about gluten free.

We got my favorite beef and broccoli with white rice. It was very filling and I didn’t get glutened from it. The waiter even gave my fortune cookie to my mom, so that I wouldn’t get cross contamination from touching the outside part of the fortune cookie bag. Love it here! My favorite!!!

Great service. Waitress knew to bring GF soy sauce and double checked to make sure fried rice was truly GF. The menu said it was but she thought maybe not during lunchtime. After checking with the chef she told me it was indeed GF. The GF menu is extensive and lunch prices are a bargain. I love their egg drop soup and Mongolian beef.

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.

I ordered delivery. Everything was clearly marked with allergy labels. I had the chicken fried rice and the chocolate soufflé. No reaction. Both were delicious.

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
