Cynthia's Chinese - Vaughan

I have several allergies (sesame, peanuts, shellfish) in addition to being Celiac. Cynthia's is always careful and I've never gotten sick or reacted negatively to their food. They're one of my go-to restaurants to order from.

They have a number of GF dishes on their menu but you have to tell them you want those dishes GF. They were very attentive and brought me my 2 dishes (separate from the big party I was with). It was nice being at a group event and although I couldn’t have everything I’d want, I chose 3 items that were great

I have non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) and I experienced significant discomfort after consuming their supposedly gluten-free dishes.

The restaurant is too expensive for the poor quality and taste. There are many better restaurants out there. It's disappointing that they claim to have gluten-free options on their menu, such as BBQ pork, but the server advised that it actually isn't gluten-free. The portion sizes for the other dishes are also quite small. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant, especially for those with gluten sensitivities or for fans of Asian cuisine.

The restaurant claims to offer gluten-free options but the menus are not reliable. We planned to order BBQ pork fried rice but our server told us that the BBQ sauce contains gluten. We chose the seafood fried rice instead, but it was clear that the crab meat was not real. We left 15 minutes ago and I'm already experiencing stomach pains. The portions were small and the prices were exorbitant. We decided to try this restaurant based on reviews from this app, but I have never been so disappointed. If you have celiac disease, I would recommend avoiding this place.
