i live in nyc and eat out all the time.

these places have special gluten-free menus available:

risotteria (village), peter's diner (upper east), sambuca (upper west), bistango (murray hill), puff and pao (village), and there are a lot more on these pages, if you look around...

most restaurants i have been to are really accommodating too if i explain the issue. i especially like josie's (they use wheat-free soy sauce, so we can have their stir fries, yummmmm).

there are also generally safe choices-- like ordering steamed food at a chinese restaurant and byo wheat-free soy sauce, going out for sushi (rice, edamame, raw fish-- all fine, just nothing marinated or with crab (which is usually fake and made with wheat) or with roe (which they put wheat into also))...

Thanks so much! I have to say that one thing I miss more than anything is pasta. Do you know a good gluten free pasta place?

I am from New York. :) I work in Manhattan. I just got diagnosed. There was this pasta place that I absolutely loved that I so miss called Don Giovanni's in the 40's by 8th ave. I used to go there all the time but never understood why I would get so sick. So I am looking for a new Don Giovanni's that I can actually eat.

Risotteria has amazing gluten free pizza, breadsticks, etc.

Lumi is one of my favorite restaurants with a gluten free menu. I recently went to Bistango for the 1st time which is also great.

Since you mentioned the place on 40th & 8th; there is a place on 44th b/t 6th & Broadway called Osteria al Doge. They don't have a gluten free menu, nor do they necessarily know so much about celiac. But there menu is very adaptable for us, and they have an incredible risotto.

Check out these websites, restaurants galore!

I second Lumi-- excellent gluten-free pasta!!! I also like Rice, they have a gluten free menu as well. And of course risotteria-- they have their pasta on tuesdays, which is great

Sambuca is good too but i havent tried their pasta

Good luck!

my Family and I are going to see the Tree at the Rockefeller Center. Which Gluten-free Restaurant is the closest to The Rockefeller Center, It would be great if it was walking distance.

Thanks

My husband loves the outback but we haven't been since I was diagnosed around 2 months ago. What is on the gluten free menu?

I'd love to have that list as well! I'm curious as to the reviews you made as well; always on the lookout for safe places :D

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.

      Had Quaker gluten-free oatmeal last night and my stomach is a mess today. NO flu but def stomach stuff. Anyone else?
    • Roses8721
      So you would be good with the diagnosis and not worry to check genetics etc etc? Appreciate your words!

      For those who will likely remain gluten-free for life anyway due to well-known symptoms they have when eating gluten, my general advice is to ignore any doctors who push to go through a gluten challenge to get a formal diagnosis--and this is especially true for those who have severe symptoms when they eat gluten. It can take months, or even years to recover from such a challenge, so why do this if you already know that gluten is the culprit and you won't be eating it anyway?  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--but those in this group will usually have negative tests, or at best, elevated antibodies that don't reach the level of official positive. Unfortunately test results for celiac disease are not always definitive, and many errors can be made when doing an endoscopy for celiac disease, and they can happen in many ways, for example not collecting the samples in the right areas, not collecting enough samples, or not interpreting the results properly and giving a Marsh score.  Many biopsy results can also be borderline, where there may be certain damage that could be associated with celiac disease, but it just doesn't quite reach the level necessary to make a formal diagnosis. The same is true for blood test results. Over the last 10 years or so a new "Weak Positive" range has been created by many labs for antibody results, which can simply lead to confusion (some doctors apparently believe that this means the patient can decide if they want more testing or to go gluten-free). There is no "Weak Negative" category, for example. Many patients are not told to eat gluten daily, lots of it, for the 6-8 week period leading up to their blood test, nor asked whether or not they've been eating gluten. Some patients even report to their doctors that they've been gluten-free for weeks or months before their blood tests, yet their doctors incorrectly say nothing to them about how this can affect their test, and create false negative results. Many people are not routinely given a total IGA blood test when doing a blood screening, which can lead to false negative interpretations if the patient has low IGA. We've seen on this forum many times that some doctors who are not fully up on how interpret the blood test results can tell patients that the don't need to follow a gluten-free diet or get more testing because only 1 of the 2 or 3 tests done in their panel is positive (wrong!), and the other 1 or 2 tests are negative.  Dermatologists often don't know how to do a proper skin biopsy for dermatitis herpetiformis, and when they do it wrongly their patient will continue to suffer with terrible DH itching, and all the risks associated with celiac disease. For many, the DH rash is the only presentation of celiac disease. These patients may end up on strong prescriptions for life to control their itching which also may have many negative side effects, for example Dapsone. Unfortunately many people will continue to suffer needlessly and eat gluten due to these errors in performing or interpreting celiac disease tests, but luckily some will find out about non-celiac gluten sensitivity on their own and go gluten-free and recover from their symptoms. Consider yourself lucky if you've figured out that gluten is the source of your health issues, and you've gone gluten-free, because many people will never figure this out.
