The workers were very nice and tried their best to keep my food separate to avoid cross contamination. I got fresh stuff from the cooler and the cooks used new tools and tried to clean my spot on the grill as best they could.

This is a buffet style- make your own pad Thai - restaurant. I had to ask for new sauce from the back because I could see all the soy sauce dripped into the “gf” one. Then the chefs sauté everything on the same open top. Yes, if you tell them you are gluten free, they clear it and use new utensils but there is no way to avoid cross contamination. Everything here is contaminated. If you have a true allergy that makes you sick, I recommend avoiding this place.

I had an excellent meal here, as someone with celiacs the grill masters were great about thoroughly cleaning an area on the grill, using new utensils, and keeping everything separate. This location is also amazing about making sure the sauces and toppings on the bar are placed carefully so as to avoid cross contamination. Coming from someone who likes to eat quite a bit of food there aren't many buffets I can still enjoy so I was happy to finally find one!

Excellent--all sauces are Gluten Free & so are the Pad Thai noodles, just remember to ask the super awesome grill masters to scrape the grill for you! Super awesome staff, I didn't feel like a bother asking for GF stuff.

Tasty food, we love date night here once and a while! GF option is rice noodles then veggies and meat and sauces. They will clean the grill and separate your food from others if you make them aware of a gluten allergy.

From start to finish the care I received was absolutely phenomenal! Veggies were separate from meats and noodles. Crab has gluten but we know that so don’t get that or the noodles. They gave me a designated bowl to collect my items and placed bars around my food after literally scrubbing the grill. I had my rice to mix at the table and even got seconds!

They have great protocols set up for allergies. They were happy to grab fresh bins of ingredients out of the back for us. My only hesitation was that all the sauces were out in one area together. If they had the GF sauces set to one side together, it would definitely have made me feel better. None of us got sick, but next time I will probably ask if there are new sauces in their chill room.

Hi Hot is a great way to fill up if you like stir-fry. They have rice noodles, fresh meats and veggies and lots of sauce options that are gluten free. Everything is labeled with allergen warnings as well as gluten-free. If you let them know you are a gluten-free customer they will clean the grill and generously keep other foods away from yours as it cooks.
