Why Diners Choose Penrith Chinese

Why local diners rely on Penrith Chinese for coeliac-safe meals, group get-togethers, and comforting classics

  • Dedicated Separate Gluten-Free Menu

    The kitchen provides an extensive standalone gluten-free menu, removing the friction of scanning regular dishes or interrogating staff.

    One reason I especially love this Chinese restaurant is because they have a seperate gluten free menu - meaning I don’t have to look all through the menu to find what I can and can’t have - it’s all together on the one page!

    Strict handling protocols ensure diners with coeliac requirements can order without fear of cross-contamination even during peak service.

    They were simply amazing with the GF no cross contamination no need to panic.

    Coeliac diners experience immediate relief knowing meal preparation is verified directly with the kitchen staff.

    The restaurant has a separate gluten free menu and confirmed with the kitchen with coeliac requirements. There were quite a few options to choose from. Everything was delicious, I feel safe dining here again

  • Soft Shell Crab

    The soft shell crab was a standout that is worth a trip to this restaurant alone to try, and I've had this dish every time I've been there; it is exceptional every time, without fail - Don't miss SOFT SHELL CRAB!

  • Beef Chow Mein

    My personal favourite dish was the Beef Chow Mein. Well cooked; Tender beef and vegetables that melt in your mouth and not bland like i’ve had before.

    Starting with chicken/corn soup was the best I've had - unusually good for such a simple normally unremarkable dish.
