I love California, but haven't had a lot of luck with the servers/restaurants. It seems that the servers are too lax or just don't understand how serious the problem is when orering. My friends just moved from Long Beach so I have eaten at a few places in town.

-PF Changs is a staple when I visit. They do a good job at this location, you can eat there with confidence.

-Famous Dave's BBQ across the street from PF's. I had a bad experience there and will not return. The server did not understand and brought out my food on a piece of bread.

-Yard House- Had the Tuna app and did not get sick. The waitress at least understood the allergy.

-Wasabi- Ate sushi here and did not get sick either. They seemed to understand as well.

-Lucille's Smokehouse--Had a great experience here! The waitress and kitchen were knowledgeable and accommodating. I ended up having the pulled pork and ribs, but make sure you check on the sauces first. It was over a year ago and I cannot remember which sauce I ordered.

I will be back next month and will definitely hit up Papacicio's. Thanks for the info! Also, let me know of any gluten-free restaurants in the area.

The Newport Rib Company on 2nd street in Naples has a gluten free menu. All the staff is knowledgable with the diet. They also have a dedicated fryer for fries. They have an extensive gluten-free menu from hamburgers to filet mignon.

If you are up for a little drive, there are two other restaurants that are fabulous for gluten-free dieters. One is called Park Ave on Beach Blvd. between Chapman Ave. and Katella north of the 22 FWY. I spoke with the owner/chef and he said to let the server know that we have special needs. He comes out everytime and asks us what our sensitivities are and what we feel like eating. He prepares a meal specifically with you in mind. Everything is made from scratch right there in the restaurant so he can accomodate any food intolerances. They even make homemade ice cream. We have never had a bad meal at this establishment and you really feel special when the chef comes out to make a special meal for you. This place is a nice place for special occasions but casual attire works as well.

The other restaurant is Skosh Monahans in Costa Mesa just off the 55Fwy. You can google the name and find their site which has an extensive gluten-free menu. We eat there at least once a week. The whole staff is schooled in gluten-free diet restrictions and are very friendly. They don't make you feel like you are putting them out by needing special consideration. All you do is ask for the gluten-free menu and you are well taken care of. The food is fabulous, cooked from scratch and we never have been ill when eating there. They also have gluten free beer. It is a sports bar so the attire and atmosphere is casual.

This is wonderful info

I think i know where both of these towns are.

Actually we were near the one in Coast Mesa.............

you are sooooooooooooooooooooooooo :lol: lucky to be eating out once a week

It's been 4 years June 15th that I've been comfortable eating out.

We'll be driving from PA to CA on our move there and that should prove to be interesting ;)

Jim got me a cooler/heater storage unit we can use to travel and it has helped so much.

Thanks i hope this list keeps growing.

We will be moving to Temecula but have family near Long Beach and will going there alot.

Those things are so great--the ones you plug into the cigarette lighter?? We got one of those for our shopping trips to TJ's and WholeFoods, because it is often 100 degrees down in Carson City or Reno and a long whiles until we can get back up to the lake.

Wow, I first saw this post back in Feb 09 and no one had answered so I thought there was a need for a Meetup group for Long Beach and the surrounding area.

Hence, I just started one now that I have just moved to Long Beach and need to know where to dine out.

Long Beach and surrounding community residents and fellow posters at this board are welcome to join free at

Open Original Shared Link

We will get together and test out area restaurants to find places that we can safely eat. Thanks to everyone who has posted here so far as this gives us places to go as a start so that we can build a good list of gluten-free friendly restaurants in LB and OC!

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      50 YO Male Recently Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      I am looking to find a Celiac Dietician who is affiliated with the Celiac Disease Foundation who I can set up an appointment with.  Can you possibly give some guidance on this?  Thank you!

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
