Our waiter was comfortable discussing my gluten free options and I didn’t get sick. However, he was not very attentive and we had to wait a long time for him to come by our table multiple times while ordering during the meal, despite it being a slow evening with few other diners. When I got my meal - the Mongolian beef - it was literally half green onions and very little beef. When I’ve eaten this dish from P.F. Chang’s in the past, there were just a few green onions. It was disappointing to pay so much for essentially half of what the portion size should have been. Additionally, they gave us large serving spoons for all of our meals and desserts, even the kids’ ice cream. When we commented on the spoons, our waiter said they were out of regular ones (again, despite there being very few diners). It made me wonder if they were this inattentive about doing dishes, how attentive were they with maintaining a gluten-free environment? The chocolate soufflé was delicious and very rich - could easily be split between two adults. We probably won’t go back anytime soon after the issues we had with the service.

We are from the UK and discovered Changs about 15 years ago on another US holiday - Changs was the first restaurant chain I found which had a gf menu.

Over the years the menu format has changed. The current menu which I was given at this location had GF offerings marked on the standard menu but with the poor (atmospheric) lighting they are not easily identifiable.

I am also dairy intolerant - and when I asked our server if the gf food was also df she mentioned they had an allergen grid and got the manager who brought over a computer printout of the allergen filter for gf and df. 2 of the 3 gf entrees are not df. So I was left with just the chicken pad Thai. Luckily the chicken lettuce wraps are still gf and df for starter

The gf food user to be delivered to the table on a different coloured plate - the server announced the gf food when it was delivered but it now comes on a standard plate.

Despite the limited choice of gf and df food Changs is still a good place to eat

Great food but be diligent as not all servers are super attentive about the gluten free stuff. Management is very aware of the importance and they are great.

Lots of GF choices, and we eat here often, but the quality of the food is a little inconsistent. Never terrible, just sometimes a little bland. But when it's good it's really good, and they're open late! Overall a great place to have dinner after seeing a movie at the nearby theatre, for a lovely GF date night. You can even get dessert!

I asked our server on two separate occasions about how they prepare the food and they both told us they prepare the gluten free dishes in a separate area of the kitchen. They have gluten free soy sauce packets as well if you ask. I come here regularly and the food is good. Gluten free dishes come out on a different colored plate too.

We came here with a large party and the server did a wonderful job of accommodating and ensuring our meal was correct. We eat at our local one every few months and it was nice to go to this one and have the same experience.

I’ve been to this PF Changs several times and never had a problem. However, my last visit, they gave me the wrong sauce, and checking with the chef, they said it was very likely a wheat-based sauce. They have a system for ensuring the food is on a designated gluten free plate but no such system for sauce. Be careful if ordering here.

Me and my husband used PF Chang's as our only safe option to eat out due to their gf protocols. The last time we ordered meals to go. When we got home my husband's food was luckily labeled (is not labeled every time we order) but had a mystery fried food in the dish. We called to let the manager know and she tried to tell us it was fine. I advised her it was not and likely won't be back due to trust issues. He had 2 bites but no reaction so that's good.
