Hi,

I am sure this has been asked before, but can someone help me with what restaurants in Las Vegas serve gluten free food?

Thank you!

I had good luck with the restaurant in the Eiffel Tower and with Smith and Wollenski. Neither has a gluten-free menu, but both were very accomodating and I didn't get sick. Great food both places. S&W even called the cook at home to see what ingredients he put in the ice cream (it was gluten-free, and this was before I was casein free).

Life sure becomes strange when your criteria for a good restaurant experience is "I didn't get sick!!" <_<

I stay at the Mirage and have lunch at Carnegie Deli (Mirage). The Pastrami and Corned Beef are gluten free (and also corn free - I called). I take my bread to the deli, if I want to make a sandwich. Ask them to serve your choice on a separate plate. I also have dinner at Stack which is at the Mirage and pretty exspensive, but will worth it. The dinner is fantastic and totally relaxing for me. the Gemeral Manager, head chef and the staff are totally into taking care of my dietary requirements.

I, of course, have to reply to tell you about the Outback's located in Vegas! :o) There are two on the "Strip" (is that the only place you plan on eating??) One in the 2nd level of the Mirage (I think)...and another on the south end... at 7380 S. Las Vegas Blvd. Check out their online gluten-free menu at www.outback.com ! Let me know if you need any suggestions off of the Strip... I've only been in Vegas a little over a year - and have only Once been "on the strip." But I know of other's around the city!! Good luck and I hope you have a good experience!

There is atleast one PF Chang's on the strip. Favorite meal on last trip was at Bellagio's Olives restaurant. Pretty nice place--great food and if you can get outside--great terrace view of fountains. Did a great job with my gluten-free meal. Just call ahead and specify you'll need gluten-free meal, they will discuss when you arrive.

There is a terrific steakhouse downtown on Fremont Street inside Fitzgerald's Casino. Now, don't get discouraged because Fitzgeralds looks sort of run down. Upstairs is "Limerick's Steakhouse". The waitress was awesome and didn't mind checking..and the manager couldn't have been more accomodating. It's a tad pricey but well worth it.

When I am in Vegas, every day for lunch I eat at Chipotle! You always know you are going to get great food and it is gluten free. It is located next to Harrahs in the middle of the Strip.

(sorry to bring up an old topic... I searched for Vegas)

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      Hi Cristiana Yes I've had the biopsy results showing normal villi and intestinal mucosa. The repeat endoscopy (requested by the gastro doc) would be to take samples from further into the intestine than the previous endoscopy reached.

      Transglutaminase IgA is the gold-standard blood test for celiac disease. Sensitivity of over 90% and specificity of 95–99%. It rarely produces false positives. An elevated level means your immune system is reacting to gluten. Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) does not typically cause high levels of tTG-IgA. Unfortunately the protocols for a diagnosis o...

      Do Antibiotics in Babies Increase Celiac Disease Risk Later in Life? (+Video)

      In Addison’s disease, autoimmmune adrenal cortex disease adrenal glands don't make enough cortisol. At 12, it is usually caused by an autoimmune attack.

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      Hello @CC90 Can I just ask a question: have you actually been told that your biopsy were normal, or just that your stomach, duodenum and small intestine looked normal? The reason I ask is that when I had my endoscopy, I was told everything looked normal. My TTG score was completely through the roof at the time, greater than 100 which was then the cut...

      Transglutaminase IgA is the gold-standard blood test for celiac disease. Sensitivity of over 90% and specificity of 95–99%. It rarely produces false positives.  An elevated level means your immune system is reacting to gluten.  Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) does not typically cause high levels of tTG-IgA. Unfortunately the protocols for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease are aimed at proving you don't have it, leaving you twisting in the wind. Genetic testing and improvement on a trial gluten free diet, also avoiding milk protein, will likely show improvement in short order if it is Celiac; but will that satisfy the medical system for a diagnosis? If you do end up scheduling a repeat endoscopy, be sure to eat up to 10 grams of gluten for 8 - 12 weeks.  You want  to create maximum damage. Not a medical opinion, but my vote is yes.

The reason I ask is that when I had my endoscopy, I was told everything looked normal.  My TTG score was completely through the roof at the time, greater than 100 which was then the cut off max. for my local lab.  Yet when my biopsy results came back, I was told I was stage 3 on the Marsh scale.  I've come across the same thing with at least one other person on this forum who was told everything looked normal, but the report was not talking about the actual biopsy samples, which had to be looked at through a microscope and came back abnormal.

      My bad. I should have reread your first post as for some reason I was thinking your TTG was within normal range. While we are talking about celiac antibody blood work, you might not realize that there is not yet an industry standard rating scale in use for those blood tests so just having a raw number with out the reference scale can be less than helpful, especially when the test results are marginal. But a result of 87.4 is probably out of the normal range and into the positive range for any lab's scale. But back to the question of why your endoscopy/biopsy didn't show damage despite significantly positive TTG. Because they took the trouble to take seven samples, it is not likely they missed damage because of it being patchy. The other possibility is that there hasn't been time for the damage to show up. How long have you been experiencing the symptoms you describe in your first post? Having said all that, there are other medical conditions that can cause elevated TTG-IGA values and sometimes they are transient issues. I think it would be wise to ask for another TTG-IGA before the repeat endoscopy to see if it is still high.  Knitty kitty's suggestion of getting genetic testing done is also something to think about. About 35% of the general population will have one or both genes that are markers for the potential to develop active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop celiac disease. So, having a celiac potential gene cannot be used to definitively diagnose celiac disease but it can be realistically used to rule it out if you don't have either of the genes. If your symptoms persist, and all testing is complete and the follow-up endoscopy/biopsy still shows no damage, you should consider trialing a gluten free diet for a few months to see if symptoms improve. If not celiac disease, you could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).
