I eat the Creole Catch, which is Tilapia, at Ruby Tuesday's. It comes with broccoli and rice. It makes a great meal.

I am glad to hear that you had great experiences at Ruby Tuesdays. I, however, emailed them about a gluten free menu or at least options. I didnt get a good response. They said they will never give you any items that are gluten free, b/c their restaurants as a whole, will subsititue items in any dish at any time they deem necessary. They told me as items become unavailable for that day or whatever the situation might be.

Maybe someone else has heard differently? I was looking to find out if their bbq sauce was gluten free. As in their ribs are my favorite. I havent had them for such a long time :(

I alse emailed them and got the same response -their distributors vary from location to location, so they can never ensure that what you get is gluten free. (AND by the way, the email was of a rather rude tone). They made some excuse about being a large chain and I emailed then back saying that places like Outback, etc. are able to accomodate celiacs and they should reconsider their structure. I got no response. I personally am boycotting Ruby Tuesdays because of this (and so is my family).

FYI, their premade potato salad is NOT gluten free.

I learned the hard way. :(

My response was in a rather rude tone too. Like who are we to ask? Now no one in my family goes there anymore either. I said the same in my letter, that there are so many other chains jumping on the gluten free bus, maybe they would consider it too? Nope. Their loss. :angry:

Totally. Maybe after hearing from enough of us, they will figure it out - but until then, I'll just go to Chilis

I have a classmate who is a line cook at Ruby Tuesdays and he told me that I would be better off not eating there. I trust him because he has been interested in what I can and can't eat and doesn't want me to get sick.

later on the next day i experienced painful stomach problems from whatever i ate at ruby tuesdays (since i i haven't eaten anything else outside my diet, im assuming this was the source) so i retract my comment, DON'T EAT THERE!

I found out this weekend that the Ruby Tuesday's in Stroudsburg, PA has gluten free french fries every Saturday. They clean out the fryer & change the oil. My daughter had a great dinner, grilled shrimp & fries. They also have a good salad bar. I'm going to email them & see why they can't keep it like that all the time & also see if that's a chain-wide practice or just there.

i got glutened badly when i was told i would be fine...and my boyfriend got a finger from a latex glove in his wrap...so im ok w/ keeping them off my safe list. :)

I used to work at a ruby tuesdays and every ingredient/side/whatever comes prepackaged and overly processed in individual preportioned containers, so the food you're paying rediculous money for is basically just processed gunk that someone dumped out of a container and onto your plate and warmed up, or pulled out of a freezer, dropped in a fryolator and plopped it onto your plate. i wouldn't recomend going there for good food, celiac or not. i do think that they were a good company, customer service oriented, etc.... but you're getting the same processed crap that you could get in the freezer at the grocery store.

that's the end of my rant on ruby tuesdays. judging by my experience working there and at other places, you're better off going to a non chain family owned restaurant. the cooks at the chain don't mean to be rude, but they don't know what's in your food because they didn't cook it. i'd feel more comfortable asking a chef or restaurant manager questions about what they're serving when they actually made the food from scratch.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
