It pains me to do this as I loved this place and their gluten free options, but my last experience wasn’t so great. I got their general tso lunch special gf, it was $15 and I received maybe 1oz chicken. The flavor was ok, not what I would normally expect. The flakes of chicken were extremely overcooked. I understand one specials are smaller portions, but for $15 this wouldn’t even count as an appetizer. I came hungry and left the same.

I was in disbelief that gluten free Chinese food actually existed. I have enviously watched my family consume Chinese and could not partake so many times in the past. I ordered the orange chicken and beef broccoli and was impressed with the taste of both. The restaurant was clean and beautifully decorated. A lovely family run business and you can taste the love inside of each bite.

If you have a Gluten allergy, then this should be the only Chinese restaurant you go to. Their Gluten Free food is beyond amazing. Almost anything can be prepared to be Gluten Free, so you won't have to worry about no options and the flavor profile brings the same punch the regular Gluten version has. I'm basic, but the Orange Chicken & Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings and some of the best I've had in San Diego. Please stop by and give this place a try.
