I just got diagnosed with celiac disease and I was wondering what major restaurant chains had gluten free menus. I know that outback steakhouse does, but are there any others?? Can you eat thai food if you have celiac disease (especially red curry)??? Any information would be appreciated.

Just ate at PF Chang's again tonight for the second time. Meal (lettuce wraps and lemon scallops) was very good and server was first rate. You should get the Triumph Dining Cards in the six different languages. They are a must for first time dining in resturants that don't have a gluten free menu.

Outback Steakhouse, Carrabas, PF Changs, Bonefish Grill, Macaroni Grill, all have gluten free menus. Still make a big deal with your server about cross contamination, so they're careful. Also, the Triumph Dining cards are fabulous at any restaurant.

Bon Apetit!

The one I haven't seen mentioned is Maggiano's. They don't technically have a gluten-free menu, but they send the cook to your table and even have gluten-free pasta.

For fast food, Chick-fil-a grilled chicken salad, no sunflower seeds, tortilla chips instead of croutons and waffle fries. Also Wendy's chili and Frosty's. You can have the french fries if they have a dedicated fryer, you have to ask, each Wendy's is different.

Hi there, I was wondering, if anybody knows, if we can eat at Texas Steakhouse. I have no clue, if this is a bigger chain or just single restaurants, but I need to know for the one Texas Steakhouse in Martinsburg, WV. Does anybody know more about this???

Greetings, Stef

Be careful with the Wendy's frosty. It was on a gluten-free list for awhile, but then they took it off. I'm not sure if it's still off, but I don't trust it.

      Hello, @Jane02, I take Naturewise D 3. It contains olive oil. Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets. Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking. Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the...

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
