Went there specifically to get the gluten-free vegetable fried rice. They no longer offered gluten-free soy sauce? But the owner’s wife has celiacs disease? Ok Needless to say, I won’t be recommending that place.

GF items mentioned on the menu, and they seemed diligent about it, but no idea about what they do in the kitchen.

I had the egg drop soup. It was good. The Singapore Pancit was quite good. In future, I’ll either order to-go or brig my own GF soy sauce.

The service was very slow, but the staff were pleasant.

Wow. I usually avoid chines restaurants at all costs due the risk of cross contamination. Took a risk coming here and wow did it pay off. Had the beerlao and the tangy chicken modified to be gf. Will report if I have a reaction. Good people good food!

Gluten free option was really good and no problem. However, they made a mistake to put egg roll and regular sauce on my dish the first time. Hopefully this is only a single event.

Had a great dinner here. Waitress was super knowledgeable, and accommodating. Probably the best meals I have had since I was diagnosed. Even my picky non celiac husband said it was the best hot and sour soup he had ever had and that my orange chicken tasted better than PF Changs! Would have given 5 stars but no GF soy sauce.

It's definitely nice to have a GF Asian food option, but I wouldn't say this is the best I have ever been to. There are not a ton of options on the menu. I would say the food is good, but it doesn't blow me away.

Situated between a "Big Lots" and a "Burlington Coat Factory" in large parking lot, I had my doubts as we drove in on a Sunday night. Everything else was quiet but this place was very busy. Walking in the door changed my perception. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and led to a table. Plenty of GF choices on the menu. I had the egg drop soup which was excellent and the chicken curry which was fantastic. Go here for the food not the ambience.

Very inexpensive and quick. Quite yummy food and so nice to have a non-PF Changs option. Only reason for not having 5 star was that they don't have GF soy sauce.
