Review of Pink Elephant Kitchen

2/9/24 - finally tried their food and it was delicious!! Very flavorful and healthy. Had a soup, salmon, shrimp, chicken satay, and steamed vegetables. Everything was organic and wild caught! We’re super sensitive and did not get sick. Going back for some curry soon.Highly recommend! It’s nice to have something healthy and gluten free in Carson.

I read the reviews and was excited to try this restaurant, so I looked at their menu online. That’s when I noticed the coconut rice pudding, which said one of the ingredients was “sprouted barley”. So I called and spoke to one of the owners. She did tell me that barley is in that dessert (as is oat milk which I don’t consume). So they do have the 1 item that is not gluten free. She also told me that they are not a dedicated facility as they have another business (that makes burgers) in their kitchen on Saturdays. Since I’m super sensitive to cross-contact, I am going to talk to the burger business to see if there are any possible issues before I decide to try the Thai restaurant. The owner of the Thai restaurant did tell me they eat gluten free themselves.
