Hi lister

see you live in Oregon..I have found 'IF THE MANAGER IS GOOD' RED ROBBIN IS THE BEST FOR US!!!

IF YOU GET A BAD MANAGER...YOUR AT THEIR MERCY...I'M GOING TO FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO MY FAVORITE MANAGER, DAVE HOWK AT THE EXTON PA RED ROBBIN. HE HAS BEEN SO INCREDIABLE TO MY HUSBAND AND I.

THERE ARE ALOT OF THREADS ON HERE FOR THAT RESTURANT. IT SEEMS THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FRANCHINSE AND CORP OWNED ESTABLISMENTS.

GLAD YOU HAD A GOOD EXPERIENCE. I LOVE THIS PLACE..AND THE FOOD IS TERRIFIC.

JUDY IN PHILLY :)

I have to learn to speak up. When we went to Red Robin, about a week ago, I asked for a Gluten Free menu. (I'd been told they were available) And, the server looked at me as if I were speaking a totally different language than she was.

We ended up getting our daughter fries, and lemonaid. I was too afraid to let her try anything else.

I just realized that I could actually eat a decent meal at Red Robin. My dad came in to visit me the yesterday and I took him to Red Robin b/c he'd never been. I didn't know if I would find anything gluten-free there or not b/c I didn't have time to check before we went out. I just asked the server a few questions (like do you fry anything else in the fryer besides the french fries?) He was really nice and admitted that they did not have a dedicated fryer (the way he said it made it seem like they were supposed to). So, I got a lettuce burger and a salad. It was a really good meal and I'll definetly go back!

Mandy and Lister--if you read the last Red Robbin thread that was up a few days ago...I said that my manager in Exton read me the oil ingred "over the phone" the next day when he called to see how i was...

the oil they have on hand has soy in it. i can't have soy so he buys another kind of oil and keeps for me and others who can't have soy...and they do not have a dedicated fryer...he just uses a clean pan and fries my ff in that one pan...

ok this may not be a answer for all travelers...remember i posted of my Easter experience where one R Robbin refused to feed me and asked me to leave..it happened to another poster on here too...so

guess you just have to call. that's the best advice i can give you

lister I didn't know i had a problem with soy until about 6 months into being gluten-free.so some tips for you and Mandy

Last time I went to RR, the manager and chef came out to talk with me. They steered me towards one of the burgers with bbq sauce (no bun). And steamed veggies. As much as I thought I'd miss the fries, I ate every morsel of food and it was wonderful. They told me that they do have a dedicated fryer, but they fry fish and onion rings in the next fryer, so there's always the chance for a small amount of cc. They were fantastic.

judy in philly -- Thanks for the advice. I really need to start planning/calling ahead so that I can feel safer about eating more than just bunny food :D

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get...

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel. they offered me an endoscopic biopsy ...

      Is it gluten?

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗

I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.

If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.
