Gluten Free On The Vegas Strip?


Ikgbrd

Recommended Posts

So in a couple of months I'll be out of town for the first time since I cut out gluten and I'm pretty nervous. I'll be staying in a hotel on the Vegas strip, without a car, so I'll be pretty limited to just eating at the restaurants nearby. I have the find me gluten-free app on my phone, but I'd really like to hear some suggestions from people who've been there on this site as well.

I'm kinda worried that everyone is going to suggest salads as well. My body doesnt do too well with leafy greens or raw veggies, so as much as I love salads, I don't want to trust them to keep me feeling good while I'm there.

So does anybody have some good go to places to eat in Vegas, preferable in walking distance of the strip?

Are there any of the chains that are known to be good with gluten-free? red Robin, Outback Steakhouse, California Pizza Kitchen, PF Chang's, Bonefish Grill, Cheeseburger inParadise?

I think they have that small chain with the French name? We don't have it so I can't remember.

Edit - Mon Ami Gabi

There are a TON of restaurants with Chef's there. They *should* know what they are doing and be able to work with you. Look up Vegas on Allergy Eats too. That's been my jumping off point for traveling with food issues.

Bring all of your favorite non-perishable foods with you. Look online and see what restaurants are near your hotel. Check their online menus and phone the restaurants ahead of time and ask if they can accommodate you. Good luck.

I spent 5 or 6 night there last year and ate very sucessfully.   I don't remember all the places, but here are some.    We ate at Outback, and Maggiano's and In and Out Burger (that one is back off the strip some) 

For breakfast we ate at  Mon Ami Gabi (in Paris); Hash House a Gogo and the Peppermill (Peppermill was risky, not sure I would do it again although the food was great and I didn't get sick, they were extremely busy and didn't have a gluten-free menu)

 

We ate at a burger place in the Mirage (don't recall the name)

 

That is all I can remember.   Like StephanieL said a lot of Chef's so you can speak directly often.   Also a lot of fine dining places if you don't mind spending the extra money.

I ate at Pepper mill A LOT. Had no issues but I'm sure cross contamination risks are high there.

      Thanks to those who have replied.  To Cristina, my symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell. To Trents, We didn’t do any of the construction but did visit the job site quite often.  While getting the old house ready we stirred up a lot of dust and I’m sure mold but haven’t been back there for over a month.

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.
