I just did a posting on Gatlinburg but totally forgot that we are going to Atlanta, GA on vacation before that. Anyone know of a good website that lists any gluten free restaurants or of any specific places in Atlanta or near that offer gluten free food. We are going to Stone Mountain for a few days but will be really close to Atlanta. Thanks for any help you can give us.

I was just in Atlanta at the end of March to see my sis and went out to eat a few times. We went to Stone Mountain and did eat at Miss Katie's Sideboard Restaurant. They had very little for me to choose from, but I did have a burger, no bun and some green beans. I am not completely convinced the green beans were safe (lots of flavorings) and they didn't have a clue as to what I was talking about. PF Changs was great....very accomodating. Ted's Montana Grill was so-so in Buford, but I have eaten at others that were wonderful. It could have just been the server. Chik-fil-a is great for fast food...waffle fries are okay, chargrilled chicken salad and ranch are all okay. There is a Harry's (Whole Foods) there, but I found that Kroger also had just as much gluten-free to offer as they did (and they were cheaper).

That is all I can remember for now. If I think of anything else, I'll post back. Have fun! :)

There isn't much in Atlanta to eat at. Do a search on here to find a few threads about this city.

I live in Lilburn which is next to Stone Mtn -

the only place I've eaten at with success

is the Longhorn Steakhouse on Hwy 78/Killian Hill Rd

in Stone Mtn/Lilburn. The manager knew what

I was talking about when I gave the server my dining

card. I have many food allergies too and they

were very accomodating. There are a few places

in the Midtown/Buckhead area of Atlanta but as

a rule I typically don't eat out. There also is an

Outback Steakhouse on Hwy 78 in Stone Mtn. that

you might want to try but I've never been there.

Hope you have a good trip!

Well, I was hoping to hear something wonderful. We were hoping that there was a place or 2 in that area that someone may have had luck with or that understood what celiac was. I know you all know, we just get a little tired of eating at the same places even though those select few are awesome.

I can't vouch from personal experience, but there is a local group here that I just joined that eats out together on a monthly basis and publishes info about the places they ate on their message boards, including the gluten-free menus. Join the group at Open Original Shared Link, search for Celiac and use zip 30050. Go to the message boards and you will find the gluten-free menus. Some of the restaurants are: R.Thomas, Blue Ridge Grill, Cedar Creek Grill, Carrabas, Cheesburger in Paradise, Smokey Bones, On the Border, PF Changs, and Outback. PM me if you have any problems. :)

Hope you enjoy your trip! B)

The person to ask about this is Floridanative. She knows a lot about the restaurants in that area.

Sorry I missed this....on vacation when you posted. We eat out about once a week and there are the usual chains but I've found the higher end places are much more Celiac aware than most chain places they supposedly know what gluten is.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand.

      Insomnia help

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep. One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem. Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read,...

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates? https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms. I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free. Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative. In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken. Major mistake!

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.
