I can't seem to locate any info on Morton's Steakhouse. Can anyone help me with my business dinner tomorrow night?

Morton's has an "au juice" that they put on all their steaks and it is NOT gluten free. I've been stung there before because their own staff wasn't aware so you have to order your steak without the sauce.

My steak came on top of a giant piece of bread all soaked in au jus.

Since I had already explained my allergy to the waiter, I was shocked. He said it was a crouton.

It was New Year's Eve.

So I ate the steak and ordered Volcano Cake and ate that too.

And my honey rubbed my back all night long.

I'll never forget our expensive New Year's dinner.

I went to Morton's a few months ago for my anniversary and our waiter was not only hysterically funny, but also very helpful and thorough in making sure all my food was ok.

He checked on everything for me. He suggested that my steak be cooked without their seasoing because he couldn't guarantee it was ok. My husband wanted to order the hashbrowns but he said the lyonaise potatoes which are almost the same type of thing, might be a better choice (I forget why, but he was hesitant about the hash browns). At first he thought the godiva chocolate souffle was flourless, but after checking on it, realized they do add a tiny bit of flour.

So I had a filet mignon with bernaise sauce, asparagus (which I also love to put the bernaise sauce on), and lyonaise potatoes. It was delicious; and fun meal.

Looks like it's time for a current 2009 update on Morton's Steakhouse.

I was diagnosed a Celiac 5 years ago, and make a point of checking here and the restaurant listings before I go anywhere. I had an unavoidable business function at the Morton's in Hackensack NJ, and based on what I read here I was concerned.

What a pleasant surprise to find that Morton's is fully functional as a gluten-free-friendly restaurant, on a global basis.

They have a gluten-free menu, the wait-staff and kitchen staff are all trained to handle gluten-free (and other food allergies as well). Their vegetables and meats are all tremendous, and they have at least one gluten-free dessert available for any given sitting.

They have made a corporate global policy of addressing gluten-free needs, and will be making an official corporate statement at some point in the very near future.

Meanwhile, it's a great place for a great gluten-free steak experience.

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana  
    • trents
      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
