The waiter was very nice and helpful with the gf options. They only use gf soy sauce and they have a dedicated fryer. The appetizer of fried chicken is really good! I also got hunan beef with a very low spice level which was perfect for me. I would go back!

Our server was very knowledgeable and validated our requests. We had plenty of options like the fried chicken, pork belly, and Singapore noodles. The menu is also easily marked for what’s GF and what’s not. They also use two separate fryers specifically for this.

We went to Wu Chow for dinner last night and finding good Chinese food for my gluten allergy (celiac) is super challenging but not here!! They were incredible and the manager (who also has celiac!) came over and made sure to assure me everything marked gluten free would have no cross contamination. The food was WONDERFUL and I can’t wait to go back.

Wu chow is very on point about gluten-avoidance! They use cornstarch breading, so an abundance of GF fried items! In a dedicated GF fryer, most protein dishes are gluten free by default, as well as fried rices, rice noodle dishes, vegetables, and more! Almost the whole menu is GF excluding dumplings, egg rolls, wontons etc
