    Pei Wei Puts Fast Casual Diners at Ease with Allergen Menus

    0
    By Alisa Fleming on February 21, 2022 Dining Out, Suggested Restaurants, U.S. Restaurants

    Updated November 2022! Pei Wei is the fast casual chain owned by P.F. Chang’s. They have an open kitchen concept where you can watch the flames dance as they prepare your meal. I’ve always loved this chain for their atmosphere and flavors. And they can be a good option for dairy-free diners. We’ve noted all of the options, along with gluten-free choices, other allergen notes, and a separate vegan menu guide with good custom order options.

    Pei Wei Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Allergen Notes, Gluten-Free Options & Vegan Options

    Pei Wei Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Allergen Notes & Vegan Options

    Be aware of special order requirements in parentheses () next to the menu items, and see the Heads Up notes to help fill in the blanks. Please note that this guide is for the U.S. locations. Options may vary in other countries.

    Other Allergen & Dietary Notes: All items below are made without egg, peanuts, and tree nuts, unless otherwise noted. They might be labeling coconut as a tree nut. If you are allergic to any tree nuts, but are not allergic to coconut, confirm the ingredients in store to see if any of the tree nut labeled dishes are safe for you. We have also labeled which items are available gluten-free. All bowls, shareables, and entrees at Pei Wei contain soy. Fish and shellfish linger in some surprising dishes at Pei Wei, so check their allergen information if these are a concern to you. For vegan options, see the Vegan Menu Guide at the bottom of this post.

    Noodle & Rice Bowls

    • Chicken Fried Rice (contains egg) (gluten-free)
    • Chicken Lo Mein
    • Chicken Pad Thai (contains peanut)
    • Dan Dan Chicken Noodles
    • Drunken Chicken Noodles

    Heads Up! Pei Wei changed their recipes quite a bit in 2022, and now state that the Drunken Noodles and Pad Thai do not contain egg. Be sure to confirm in store if concerned.

    Salad Bowls

    • Asian Chopped Chicken Salad (gluten-free)

    Dairy-Free Salad Dressings: Lime Vinaigrette, Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette

    • Fried Rice (contains egg) (gluten-free)
    • Lettuce Cups (gluten-free)
    • Mixed Salad Greens (gluten-free)
    • Noodles
    • White Rice (gluten-free)

    Heads Up! Pei Wei has not labeled their grain/base menu for gluten-free options, but all of the above, aside from the noodles (they do contain wheat), might be gluten-free.

    Kid’s Wei

    • Chicken Lo Mein
    • Honey-Seared Chicken (contains egg)
    • Orange Chicken (contains egg)
    • Teriyaki Chicken

    Heads Up! The House Special Chicken on the Kid’s Menu at Pei Wei does contain milk. According to the company, the Honey-Seared Bowl does not contain egg when made with their Five Spice Tofu, but verify in store.

    Desserts

    Heads Up! All desserts at Pei Wei do contain dairy.

    Pei Wei Vegan Menu Guide

    • Edamame
    • Dumpling Sauce
    • Sweet Chile Sauce
    • Asian Chopped Salad (no crispy wontons, sub tofu for chicken)
    • Lime Vinaigrette
    • Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette
    • Firecracker Crispy Tofu
    • Honey-Seared Tofu
    • Thai Dynamite Tofu
    • Brown Rice
    • Lettuce Cups
    • Mixed Salad Greens
    • Noodles
    • White Rice

    Heads Up! The “honey-seared” sauce at Pei Wei is reportedly free of honey (it’s just a flavor) and vegan-friendly. But, we were told by the chefs that the teriyaki sauce contains honey.

    Menus, ingredients, kitchen procedures, management, food sourcing, and restaurant protocols are subject to change at any time. Always read the menu and discuss your dietary needs with the staff before ordering. Make sure they can accommodate your situation. This post is for informational purposes only, and should not be construed as advice.

    There is always a risk for potential cross-contamination of allergens in any commercial kitchen. If cross-contamination is an issue for you, always speak with the manager to ensure that your meal can be safely prepared. Listings here do not guarantee that a restaurant is safe enough for your individual needs. Only you can make that decision.

    Each location of a chain restaurant has different management and staff, and some might have different owners. This means differences in processes, ingredients used, menu options, and food sourcing can occur. Always verify the safety of your order for your needs at your current location.
