Atlantic City, Nj

[Guest GlutenFreeGirlfriend]

My boyfriend and I are going to Atlantic City in about a week (our first vacation together!) and I am trying to scope out some places for us to eat while we're there. I've already found a PF Changs near where we're staying, but I was just wondering if anybody else had any good gluten-friendly restaurant suggestions for the area.

Thanks guys!

We're not ignoring you--it's just that AC isn't a great place for gluten-free options. I spent a few days there last fall with my wife and two friends, and we ended up going to PF Changs two days in a row.

If you and your boyfriend are non-smokers (and from outside NJ), you will want to know this--restaurants in New Jersey are smoke-free now, but casinos are not.

Good luck!

Thanks, Ken.

I am hoping we like PF Changs as we've never been there before. I've heard they are really good with the gluten-free food though.

Luckily, my boyfriend and I are staying in a timeshare that has a microwave, refridge and stove, so we won't have to worry about eating all of our meals out, but I just thought it would be good to have some options. There are a couple upscale restaurants that I might check into, but I'm not sure yet.

AC does seem to be a hard city for Celiacs!

Cuba Libre (in the Tropicana) should be able to accomodate you. There is a also a crab shack in the Trop where you can just get crab legs and steamed shrimp. Other than that, I am not aware of many places in AC that are gluten free.

Thanks! We did a little research last night and found out that another Celiac-friendly restaurant, Buddakan, is coming to the Pier at Caesar's. But it's not going to open until the fall. Boo.
