    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 February 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. 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 Pad Thai (contains egg, peanut)
    • Dan Dan Noodles
    • Drunken Noodles (contains egg)

    Heads Up! The Chicken Lo Mein at Pei Wei does contain milk.

    Salad Bowls

    • Asian Chopped Chicken Salad (contains egg) (gluten-free)
    • Spicy Polynesian Poke Bowl (contains egg)

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

    Shareables

    • Chicken Egg Rolls (contains egg)
    • Edamame (gluten-free)
    • Fried Vegetable & Chicken Dumplings (contains egg)
    • Mongolian Green Beans (gluten-free)
    • Pork Egg Rolls (contains egg)
    • Signature Chicken Lettuce Wraps
    • Steamed Vegetable & Chicken Dumplings (contains egg)
    • Vegetable Spring Rolls (contains egg)

    Heads Up! The Thai Won Ton Soup, Yum Yum Shrimp, and Crab Wontons contain milk.

    Dairy-Free Dipping Sauces: Dumpling Sauce, Sweet Chile Sauce

    Entrees

    • Beef & Broccoli (contains egg) (gluten-free)
    • Chicken & Broccoli (gluten-free)
    • Firecracker Chicken
    • Firecracker Crispy Tofu
    • Grilled Bourbon Chicken
    • Honey-Seared Chicken (contains egg)
    • Kung Pao Chicken (contains peanut) (gluten-free)
    • Kung Pao Shrimp (contains egg, peanut) (gluten-free)
    • Mongolian Chicken
    • Mongolian Steak (contains egg) (gluten-free)
    • Orange Chicken (contains egg)
    • Sesame Chicken
    • Spicy Thai Basil Cashew Chicken (contains tree nuts)
    • Sweet & Sour Chicken (contains egg)
    • Teriyaki Chicken
    • Teriyaki Crispy Tofu
    • Thai Coconut Curry Chicken (contains tree nuts) (gluten-free)
    • Thai Dynamite Crispy Tofu

    Heads Up! The Spicy General Tso’s Chicken, House Special Chicken, Pei Wei Original Shrimp, and Spicy Korean BBQ Steak contain milk.

    Grains & Bases

    • Brown Rice
    • Cauliflower Fried Rice (contains egg)
    • Fried Rice (contains egg)
    • Lettuce Cups
    • Mixed Salad Greens
    • Noodles
    • White Rice

    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

    • Orange Chicken
    • Teriyaki Bowl with Wok Fried Sliced Chicken, Grass Fed Steak, Shrimp, or Steamed Shrimp (contains egg – see note below)
    • Honey-Seared Bowl with Crispy Tempura Chicken, Grass-Fed Steak, Shrimp, or Five-Spice Tofu & Fresh Vegetables (contains egg – see note below)
    • Sweet & Sour Bowl with with Crispy Tempura Chicken, Grass-Fed Steak, Shrimp, or Five-Spice Tofu & Fresh Vegetables (contains egg – see note below)

    Heads Up! The House Chicken on the Kid’s Menu at Pei Wei does contain milk. They removed the milk tag on the Kids’ Menu Lo Mein, but I would proceed with caution since their main menu Lo Mein does contain milk. The Teriyaki Bowl does not contain egg when made with the Chicken, and the Honey-Seared and Sweet & Sour Bowls do not contain egg when made with the Five Spice Tofu.

    Desserts

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

    Pei Wei Vegan Menu Guide

    • Edamame
    • Mongolian Green Beans
    • 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 Five-Spice Tofu & Fresh Vegetables (special order)
    • Teriyaki Crispy Tofu
    • Thai Dynamite Crispy Tofu
    • Brown Rice
    • Lettuce Cups
    • Mixed Salad Greens
    • Noodles
    • White Rice
    • Kid’s Honey-Seared Bowl with Five-Spice Tofu & Fresh Vegetables
    • Kid’s Teriyaki Bowl with Five-Spice Tofu & Fresh Vegetables or Crispy Tofu
    • Kid’s Sweet & Sour Bowl with Five-Spice Tofu & Fresh Vegetables

    Heads Up! The “honey-seared” sauce at Pei Wei is reportedly free of honey (it’s just a flavor) and vegan-friendly. They offer Honey-Seared Chicken on the “adult” menu, but you can sub their Five-Spice Tofu & Vegetables.

    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.
