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.

Uno's Chicago Grill has a gluten-free menu. Some good items on it, including BBQ ribs.

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.

      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.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
