Does anyone know of any gluten free friendly restaurants in Napa Valley, California?

I was out in Napa last spring (we were visiting after having lived in San Francisco for quite some time). The Calistoga Inn was wonderful and accomodating. I had a delicious risotto dish there with fresh veggies and no problems. by the way, if you weren't planning on hitting Calistoga, you should! It's a great spa town in Napa valley with mudbaths, massages, hot springs- heavenly. And the grocery store has lots of gluten-free products as well. I found that in the San Francisco/Northern California area there is a great deal of awareness about Celiac's.Also, check out this link:

At the end they recommend Bistro Jeanty in Yountville (Napa) which I have heard wonderful things about from friends. have a great trip! B

Thank you so much for this information. We are going to Napa in two weeks and planning on staying in Napa for a week. We are planning on visiting Calistoga for one day and tring the mudbaths and getting a massage, so this information on Calistoga Inn is helpful. Thanks again and I'll check out this website.

We had an amazing time in Napa, the hot air balloon ride made the trip even more special. I emailed

Bistro Jeanty in Yountville (Napa), before we left and their cheif did not even know what gluten was. They were not very helpful at all, they should not have their name on a glute free site. I told them that and they said they never put it on that site. One restaurant that was very helpful was Hurleys, it is down the street from Bistro Jeanty. We also ate at Cole's steakhouse and had no problems.

Oh I'm so excited to hear about your trip! Napa is one of my favorite places and I'd retire there IF I could afford it. I've printed this info for next visit there. Thanks again!

Check out the Culinary Institute in the area. They have a restaurant, and I imagine that chefs in training would be a good choice at making a tasty gluten free meal.

Carol- Glad you had a great time! Love it there. disappointed about Bistro jeanty though- a friend of mine (whgo does not have Celiac's) loves it there and they were on the Bay Area list. Oh well! I'm hoping to make it out in March so it was good to hear your recommendations. Best, Beverly

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I would not think store bought yogurt would contain gluten unless it possibly could be through an added flavoring or coloring ingredient. Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free. Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by...

      FDA looking for input on Celiac Gluten sensitivity labeling PLEASE READ and submit your suggestions

      I believe the GFCO does use a common logo for certified gluten free products (those containing not more that 10ppm of gluten) but nothing universal yet from the FDA for standard gluten free products (those containing not more that 20ppm).

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I have a One Pot and decided to start using it one day. I was hesitant at first making my own yogurt, but was surprised at how easy it was. I like mine better too.

      FDA looking for input on Celiac Gluten sensitivity labeling PLEASE READ and submit your suggestions

      Because I spend so much time reading every word on all food packaging, I personally would greatly appreciate it if there was one common gluten-free symbol written in large-enough text, and always located in the same place. That alone will make shopping easier and faster. I dread having to buy packaged food. Thank you very much for asking,

Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.
