Would you trust eating at Monoglian BBQ (where you make your own stirfrys, and theres a big pit where they grill it up in front of you. Im in the beginning stages and not a lot of food agrees with me so I'm eating the basics- fruits,vegetables, and lean protein (soy and gluten seem to both give me a problem). When ive gone there in the past i usually just get vegetables and meat, so that way it works out- but it seems like a major cross containmination risk? I plan on callin them tomorrow...my friend is involved in a relay for life event there tomorrow night to raise money and my boyfriend really loves it...i was jus wondering if you guys have had problems there?

I bet the sauces have soy sauce which contains wheat. :(

If you are a recently diagnosed celiac or just starting the gluten-free diet, you need to stay away from restaurants for a few months -- those places will be pure poison for you and you need to give your intestines a chance to heal.

Also, it seems like you could be soy intolerant as well, you will need to avoid that for awhile (if not forever...)

Eat at home, eat safe meals and keep the meals simple (Baked Chicken with Olive Oil, Salt and Pepper), Steamed Rice (NO SOY SAUCE) and green leafy veggies (cooked).

Raw veggies will probably mess you up during the first few months of healing also.

Keep it simple until you get better and don't feel quite as many symptoms...

there is a mongolain bbq i used to go to and they were super careful about keeping the grill clean.. beacuse of most of the people that ate there were vegetarian .. so they would have half the grill for meat and half vegetarian..have seperate sticks for frying the veg and meat.. and they also scraped it and washed it down when ever someone asked...this was an independently owned place. not a chain.. so i dont know how a chain would be about cc.

and none of their sauces had wheat except their soy sauce and id just bring my own.

so maybe just ask on the phone if they are willing to wash the grill..or also some places are willing to just take your bowl in back and cook it in a pan.

I agree about not eating out for awhile till you start feeling better. However, when you do finally dare try Mongolian BBQ again - you can put your own sauces on your mix - just find out which ones have gluten and which ones don't. I'm sure a lot of them don't have gluten in it....and even using little or no sauce would be okay (they'd just add lots of water to cook with). I agree about having them clean off the grill before cooking your mix. (Make sure you go when it's not too busy though....unless you like getting evil stares from other customers! haha!) My hubby Loves Mongolian BBQ - so whenever we go visit my family, he always wants to eat there (usually gets it to-go though). I've eaten there a couple times - and never noticed any negative effects (however - I'm not very sensitive...so don't take my word on that). Good luck!

I think there is too much risk for CC there. They would cook your food on the same grill as everyone elses, with wheat based noodles, wheat sauces, etc. I doubt that they could clean the grill well enough to avoid any CC issues...

And I agree, avoid restaurants, at least until you are healthy, and have a strong grasp on the diet!

I eat at the same type place called genghis grill, I agree you might want to take a few months off eating out. Genghis grill has a bar of raw food and if you want sauces you add them, I never use them just salt and pepper , then I ask them to put a clean pan on the gril rather than cooking it on it to prevent cross contamintation, this helps the noddles stay out of my food, then serve it only plain brown rice..

The last time I checked Mongolians website there were only 2 of their new sauces we could have; the lemon and the spicy buffalo. Just make your plate and then tell the waiter that you have an "allergy bowl." They will take it to the back and cook it in a clean skillet. I just ate there last week..no problems.

      Hi, @Rebeccaj, Those Villa that get damaged by eating gluten are the same billion that absorb nutrients from our food.  Damaged villa can't absorb nutrients, vitamins and minerals well.  If we don't get sufficient nutrients, our body can't function properly.  We can get brain fog, pins and needles or neuropathy, feeling off balance, and even worsening digestive symptoms. Talk to your doctor or dietician about taking vitamin and mineral supplements while healing.  The gluten free diet can be low in nutrients, especially if you eat gluten free facsimile processed foods.  Gluten containing breads have vitamins added to them to replace those lost in processing.  Gluten free facsimile foods usually are not enriched nor fortified with vitamins.   Taking a B Complex, Benfotiamine, Vitamin D, and magnesium help the digestive tract heal, lowers histamine, and regulates the immune system.

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?
    • Scott Adams
      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/
