Delicious, we did take out and tried a chicken dish, fried rice and cabbage dish. It was fantastic and the team made sure to let us know that everything was gluten free. Must check out spot!

Review


The first thing our server said was “Are there any allergies I should know about?” When I mentioned celiac and my husband starting asking about whether they use shaoxing wine (which is not GF BTW), she apparently transferred us to the “celiac-aware” server to get our questions answered. She said the owner’s daughter has a lot of allergies, so the whole staff is very aware.

Their fryer is GF because all their fried items are GF. They have GF indicators on dishes that are or can be made GF. (It is a tiny Chinese character, but to my over-40 eyes, it was just a blob.)

The food was good and I had no problems afterwards. That said, I think I am not the target market, which seems to be people who like loud music and expensive cocktails. The portions were modest for the price. Still, it’s great to have an option for Chinese food from a place that is aware of gluten issues.

Staff was very knowledgeable - said that there is a dedicated GF frier and all breading is in cornstarch. Explained that GF dishes are made in separate pans. It’s not a dedicated GF facility, but I felt good eating there! No issues after!
