By far one of my favorite places in Portland. If you want a trip to flavor town this is it. Bartender was super helpful explaining what was safe. They can cook the one safe noodle dish in separate water than the other noodle dishes. It was amazing. Absolutely amazing.

Our waitress didn’t seem fazed about my dairy, gluten, soy, egg allergy and went through the entire menu with me, highlighting what was safe to eat and what could be altered. Their online menu also clearly states what allergens are in each item. I settled on the charred broccolini and lobster laksa. The flavors were out of this world! I we weren’t leaving town the next day, I would have loved to eat there again. Highly recommend!

There aren’t too many options they can make GF (most of their apps are fried and they don’t have a separate fryer, so you’re basically limited to salads, a few other cold apps, and a few noodle entrees). However, everything that I’ve tried has been delicious and I haven’t had a response. I love the khao soi!

I felt like the staff took my concerns very seriously which I really appreciated. The waiter pointed out which items they could do gluten free. They have rice noodles to swap out for other noodles. He said they would scrub the wok out before cooking my meal. That might not work for someone more sensitive but it worked for me. There weren't many items they could do GF but you only need a couple and the ones we had were very good. They also had a couple of really good ciders on their menu and mixed drinks.

Really great food. Staff is very aware. I’ve only tried a salad and cocktail there but other items can be made gluten free. I’ve seen on their online ordering you can choose “celiac” and they will make the noodles in new water, etc.

The staff was very knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross contamination. Many of their dishes could be modified to be gluten free. The only reason I took a star away was because the food wasn’t to my taste. The menu doesn’t go in depth as to what’s in each dish and mine for instance was very spicy. Place was also extremely busy.

Truly exceptional meal. The server (Meg W.) was incredibly knowledgeable about gluten free options and the safety of their kitchen, and she was very helpful with choosing gluten free appetizers and making switches to my entree to get what I wanted while making it gluten free. She also came to ask questions about cross-contamination and was just so attentive and kind during the entire meal.

Not to mention, the food is amazing! One of the best meals I’ve had in an extremely long time.

The server was very knowledgeable about what was gluten-free or how to make dishes gluten free. If she was unsure, she checked with the kitchen. Rice noodles were cooked in different water than the egg noodles. I had the Vietnamese Masa Crepe - it was delicious!
