Peter Chang

If you have a gluten allergy (not Celiac), then this is the place for you! Going out for Asian food is very difficult because soy sauce has gluten in it. Peter Chang’s has MANY gluten free options that are delicious! This is now our go to place when we want Chinese.

As someone with Celiac disease, I was excited to see that every page of their menu says to “ask about gluten-free options”. Unfortunately, the servers are not well-versed in what gluten-free really means. During two separate visits after asking about gluten-free options, separate servers recommended deep-fried items that could be made with cornstarch breading, however upon further questioning I determined that they used the same fryer as everything else so it wouldn’t be Celiac safe. It seems like their go-to gluten-free option is to just swap each dish’s sauces and spices with a white garlic sauce. Once I ordered GF Kung Pao Chicken and once I ordered GF Chicken with Wood Ear Mushrooms and both times I received the same stir-fried chicken with vegetables and white sauce. Overall, it was a bit disappointing. If only they were able to alter their dishes with tamari or coconut aminos instead of soy sauce and use a separate fryer or make things stir-fried instead of deep-fried, those of us who are gluten-free would have so many more options.
