Friendly staff, clean restaurant. Unfortunately My first ever meal from this franchise made me sick. I ordered the sick GF Mongolian shrimp with brown rice. Tasted awesome and they provided GF soy sauce but within 15 minutes my stomach was hurting.

Staff pretty gluten free clueless. Got the lettuce wraps gluten free. They used noodles in stead of rice? I guess they add gluten to their white rice? Swimming in water. Kind of a mess to eat. They also have changed their $2.19 ice tea selection. Yuck! Asked me twice if everything was good and I said no. Said sorry and ran! What kind of customer service is that? At least they asked??? Lol. Very disappointing 😞

I am trying to rate this one star. My husband and my son have gotten gluten here on two separate occasions. I wouldn't eat here if you have Celiac Diease.

My daughter has celiac and we have been eating here for years with no problems. She gets potato starch battered chicken with rice and vegetables. They have kids meals as well as regular meals that are GF. They have a gluten free menu.

Have eaten here twice with no issues. It's not what I would call gourmet, but it's decent fast food Chinese if you're in the mood. It can be very hard to find GF Asian food!

I go here frequently, sometimes once a month and have never had issues. I enjoy the original chicken the most. Never had issues getting sick even when they are busy. They take proper precautions

Update May 2024. Continue to go here and never an issue. They have a more expanded gf menu than they used to. I have dined in and ordered online to go without issues

Ordered gf fried rice and gf pad Tai noodles. Was a lot of food, delicious flavors. No issues next day, highly recommend. They were attentive to my allergy.

So, I couldn’t find anything to verify this, but the staff at the airport location said that everything on their menu is gluten free - made with corn flour, there isn’t any gluten on site. This isn’t clear from their posted menu, which notes specific things are gluten free (implying that others that aren’t marked are not). And it’s also not clear when you find the Pei Wei website and the same menu items are not marked gluten free. But I did eat one of the things not marked gluten free (because they were out of the thing I wanted that was) and did not have any symptoms afterwards.

Not a fan- didn’t look like woks were being switched in-between dishes. Not sure how or why some things are GF and others are not when ingreds are similar- made no sense - too saucy!
