Hi,

Legal Seafoods has a gluten-free menu.

The Elephant Walk has a gluten free menu. I ate there (Boston location, near the St. Mary's Stop on Green C line) recently and had a delicious meal. I ordered directly from their regular celiac menu, but they have a larger list of items for which you can call ahead and order in advance.

I don't know of any restaurants in the area that are completely gluten free.

Carrabba's also has a gluten-free menu and so does Outback and Texas Roadhouse. I eat at Dillon's on Boylston ALL THE TIME and they're very used to me so if you go there you should be fine, just bring yuor allergy card. Also Bangkok City on Mass Ave is very used to me and they have yummy Thai food. I bring my triumph Thai dining card in there. If you don't have them, you should order them. They're amazing!!! We should all frequent a different place each month so that all of Boston gets to know us and in the future we can eat anywhere! Yea! Sounds like a plan :)

Last year, I went to the Acquarium for the day and then decided to hit up the Legal Seafoods right across the street. Seems logical right? Spend the day looking at fish and seafood, then you go and eat some! I ordered off the gluten free menu and had a great experience. I can't remember exactly what I ate, but it tasted good and I think I had a dessert too. Good luck!

I eat in Boston all the time, I have great luck at the above mentioned restaurants and have had good luck at the PJ Changs (by the 4 seasons hotel between the common and the theatre district). Stephanie's on Newbury Street does gluten free and so does Grill 23. Actually I've had very good luck at any upscale steakhouse in town and virtually at any upscale restaurant with a chef.

I have eaten at Todd English's Olives in Charlestown and had no trouble getting plain grilled fish and veggies, they added a few sauces to them both that the chef made for me and I was fine, no gluten reactions. Also Flemings and the Capitol Grill does gluten-free.

Here is a list of a few other places;

so, yesterday someone told me that there was a restaurant in Harvard Square that makes gluten-free pizza. They didn't know the name, though. Has anyone heard of a place like this?

It's great to hear everyone's restaurant suggestions

:)

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankles and went about to my knees. Every time I had the rash it would cover more of my body, so my arms and part of my torso were impacted as well, and it was always symmetrical. First I was told it was an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Next I was told it was eczema (after a biopsy of the lesion - not the skin near the lesion) and given a steroid injection (didn’t help). I took myself off of gluten about 3 weeks before seeing an allergist, just to see if it would help (it didn’t in that time period). He thought the rash looked like dermatitis herpetiformis and told me to eat some bread the night before my blood tests, which I did, and the tests came back negative. I’ve since learned from this forum that I needed to be eating gluten daily for at least a month in order to get an accurate test result. I’m grateful to the allergist as he found that 5 mg of doxepin daily will eliminate the rash within about 10 days (previously it lasted for months whether I was eating gluten or not). I have been gluten free for about 25 years as a precaution and recommendation from my doctor, and the pattern of breaking out every 8 years or so remains the same except once I broke out after just one year (was not glutened as far as I know), and now it’s been over 9 years. What’s confusing to me, is that there have been 3 times in the past 2 years when I’ve accidentally eaten gluten, and I haven’t had any reaction at all. Once someone made pancakes (they said they were gluten-free, they were not) and I ate several. I need to decide whether to do a gluten challenge and get another blood test. If I do, are these tests really accurate? I’m also concerned that I could damage my gut in that process if I do have celiac disease. My brother and cousin both had lymphoma so that’s a concern regarding a challenge as well, though there is a lot of cancer in various forms in my family so there may be no gluten connection there. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just doubting the need to remain gluten free if I don’t have any reaction to eating it and haven’t had a positive test (other than testing positive for one of the genes, though it sounds like that’s pretty common). I’d appreciate any thoughts or advice!

      Hello, just popped in my head to ask this question about medications and celiac? I have always had refurse reaction to meds since I can remember  of what little meds my body is able to tolerate. I was taking gabapentin 300mg for a week,  in past I believe 150? Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.

      I also noticed I get debilitating migraines when I smell gluten, wheat and its not taken seriously when it affects one in every way.Im still begging to properly be heard.I also noticed tolerance level is down the drain with age and life changes. I have been told by incompetent medical that im not celiac or that sensitive. Diagnosed in 1994 by gi biopsy gluten-free ever since along with other lovely food allergies. Prayers
