Thanks!!

Check out the website Open Original Shared Link. They have a link that lists local restaurants with gluten-free menus. Cold Stone Creamery is very good about making sure your ice cream is clean (they'll remove top layers/get out a new (clean) stone to mix it on, etc.) I think that Rodizio Grill in SLC also has a gluten-free menu that they'll give you if you call them. (But it's not on the gfutah list . . . .) I'm pretty sure that when the GIG conference was here this summer, they went to eat at Rodizio (it's VERY VERY good . . . it's a Brazilian BBQ place - lots of meat, though) but I'm not sure. Maybe someone else who went could tell you.

Hope you have fun while you're here! There's a store in Taylorsville (an 8 minute drive South on the I-15 freeway) called Against the Grain that only carries gluten-free foods . . . you might check it out.

What are you going to be doing while you're here?

Some of the best restaurants I've been to around here are Carrabas, Outback and the Spaghetti Factory (don't know if the ones in SLC have gluten-free pasta, but the one in Orem does). Outback has a gluten-free menu on their website, I'd check it out before you come. Don't get the ceasar salad though! Wingers is another one that is supposed to be coming out with a gluten-free menu, but I'd look on the gfutah site for info on that before going in. PF Changs is also good as is Chili's. Macaroni Grill will sub out pasta for mashed potatoes or veggies if you get something grilled. Their salmon and steaks are great!! I even brought in my own gluten-free bread once and they served me "bruschetta" by topping my bread with the veggies! It was great!

As always, just make sure you communicate with the servers. There's lots of good places to eat downtown :)

Good luck!

There's also a PF Chang's downtown and a Ruby Chris's Steakhouse downtown. (That Ruby Chris's is in the Triumph Dining book. I haven't gone there (yet!) but it looks like they even have gluten-free dessert!)

If you'll be at the Salt Palace or the Delta Center, it's practically around the corner. So is Z'Tejas and Thaifoon if you go there.

We moved to SLC about 2 months ago. We haven't been to very many restaurants but my son (who is the only Celiac in the family) really likes Spaghetti Mama's because he can have gluten free pasta there.

congratulations on being able to come to the best place ever! just kidding, i'm a little biased since i live here in slc.

anyway i wanted to mention to you if you're going to be in the downtown area, you might want to check out The Roof Restaurant located in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. it is a wonderful all you can eat buffet. you will have to call to make reservations, just google it or "Temple Square Hospitality Corporation" and it will come up. let them know you have gluten intollerance so you can get something good for desert like ice cream because they usually have a lot of gluten items. It's a buffet, and is kind of pricey, but well worth it and the view of Temple Square is marvelous for tourists. They serve prime rib and honey baked ham every night, shrimp, sometimes salmon, salad though i'm not sure about the dressings, and have great mashed potatoes and I think those are okay.

I know I sound like an add for them, but it's great.

Another great place to go is the Old Spaghetti Factory in Taylorsville. Like someone said there is the Against the Grain there too.

They have WildOats downtown... It's on 400 South and 700 East in that shopping center. You can get to it via the University Trax Trolley Square drop-off. There's also a Chili's on 400 South too.

Another great place to go just for restaraunts is 300 South. I think Buca de Bepa's has gluten free stuff but I'm not positive. In the gateway there are a lot of restaurants too like Thaifoon (sp?). The closest Outback is either in American Fork or Bountiful which are both kind of out of the way, so I wouldn't suggest that. Beware of Rumbi Island Grill! I used to work there, the food is FABULOUS but there are probably lots of cc issues because it's fast food and they use a lot of Teriaki/Jerk sauce with their bowls. Rodizio's is sooooooo good. It is located in the top of the trolley square shopping center and Betsy's right, you do get lots of meat. But it's also an all you can eat kind of deal, and a salad if I'm remembering correctly.

Most of the places in downtown have restaraunts in them, I know Raddisson does and Little America does too.

Maybe the place you're staying will too?

If you'd like any more information on anything in SLC, please feel free to pm me and I'll try to take care of you!

We hope you have a good time while you're here! If you have time to ski, it certainly looks like there out to be enough snow by then :D Alta Ski Resort got 11 inches a couple of days ago!

And there are local grocery stores (the Macey's stores) that do cooking classes all the time, and they do gluten-free classes once a month or so (but it depends on the store . . . I've heard they do them pretty often in Ogden and at least once a month in the Provo/Orem area, but I'm not sure how often they do them in the main SLC area). So if you want to go to one of those, let me know when you'll be here and I'll find out whether there will be one while you're here.

Anytime! That would be great. I have school at night so probably can't "assist" you in eating DARN!

Tell us more about your conference. It sounds exciting.

Well, I'd have to PM you about that. I don't think it's allowed here.

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here. I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem...

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
