Texas Roadhouse Or Logan's Roadhouse?

DH's holiday party is this weekend. The girls always spend the evening with the grandparents. They go to dinner and then to Chuck E Cheese's to play (we don't eat there!). I'm concerned enough about the little one even being at CEC without my supervision, but I'm also wondering if she'll be able to eat dinner. My mom has already told me they are going to either Texas Roadhouse or Logan's Roadhouse, depending on which one has the shortest wait.

Has anyone had a good experience with either of these steakhouses? I do plan to call ahead and talk to both places about the menu, but I am interested in thoughts from those who have been there, done that.

My family has gone to Logan's. I don't know if it was because of gluten or not because when I went I wasn't that into watching gluten. I had thought I was safe with ribs. But I got violently ill. I was in bed for 2 days (and usually when I get that bad I push myself to get out of bed). My grandmother and her boyfriend had also gotten sick (they have no issues with foods). I also don't know how young your kids are....and if people will watch her carefully...but also my experience with the rolls (with gluten) were NASTY...very yeasty...and here's me loving bread...

So to be honest our whole experience stunk...but then again we don't know what exactly it was.

I had contacted Texas Roadhouse because my daughter keeps getting gift certificates for a free meal from school, but so far no one has bothered to call me back or e-mail me back... when I called the local one they didn't have a clue what I was talking about.

I've done well with either. I ask for the steak with only S&P, not their seasoning, I get the baked sweet potato and veggies without seasoning, and I do fine. When I was traveling, Steak places were my "least risk" place to eat out. The last time I was in a Texas roadhouse, they even did the steak in a pan instead of on the grill <_< to protect me. I just use the easy -- "I'm allergic to wheat and the seasoning most likely has wheat in it" that simplifies the problem, but makes me understood.

I eat at Texas and if I have a new server, I let them know I have food allergies and don't have any problems. They clean a portion of the grill for me. I haven't tried Logan's yet - we just got one in town. I eat a plain salad and steak - the green beans I give to hubby because they have bacon. I also shield my food (imagine my arms and hands forming a small wall around my plate) when I go with family and they are eating break or peanuts. My kids and DH are OK, it is my father I have to be concerned about since he is not around me enough to know how truly sensitive I am.

When I first started this, I actually put my menu up as a wall between me and my bread-weilding hubby. That embarrased him enough that he got more careful! :lol:

I didn't have any problems at Texas Roadhouse. I made sure the server knew I had food allergies & they wrote in red ink several times on my order slip "NO SEASONINGS!" -- ribeye, sweet potato, and lettuce salad with just lemon juice. I forgot to ask about a clean spot on the grill, but it was the only meal during my trip I didn't get sick from.

Well, it seemed to go well at Logan's Roadhouse. DD's reaction time is almost exactly 24 hours and she has been fine all day. She had a plain sweet potato and unseasoned veggies, which was simply broccoli this time of year (surprised it didn't include any winter squash though).

Thanks for the feedback! I decided to let her have a go at it. Even though she's only 1, I just don't want her to feel isolated and left out all the time. Grandma and Grandpa said she had a great time. She took her own "appetizers" and they kept the rolls far away from her.

I printed off a copy of the Texas Roadhouse gluten free menu from their website and use it when we eat there......our waitress understood what I was talking about and made copious notes for the kitchen staff. I am very happy with them.

I haven't tried Logan's lately because I have never liked their food.

Can you post the link to the webiste for the menu? I tried finding it on their website but didn't have any luck. Thanks.

      Dried Chickpeas

      Hello, @Aretaeus Cappadocia, My favorite source of B12 is liver. 😺 I react to nutritional yeast the same way as if I were glutened. Casein, a protein in dairy, and nutritional yeast have protein segments that match certain antigenic protein segments in gluten. The proteins in rice, corn (maize), and chicken meat have them as well. Some pe...

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      HLA testing can definitely be confusing. Classic celiac disease risk is most strongly associated with having the full HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 heterodimer, which requires specific DQA1 and DQB1 genes working together. Your report shows you are negative for the common DQ2 and DQ8 combinations, but positive for DQB102, which is one component of the DQ2 pair. On its...

      I agree with your post and have had similar experiences. I'm commenting to add the suggestion of also using nutritional yeast as a supplement. It's a rich source of B vitamins and other nutrients, and some brands are further supplemented with additional B12. I sprinkle a modest amount in a variety of savory recipes.

      Hello, @Aretaeus Cappadocia, My favorite source of B12 is liver.  😺 I react to nutritional yeast the same way as if I were glutened.  Casein, a protein in dairy, and nutritional yeast have protein segments that match certain antigenic protein segments in gluten.  The proteins in rice, corn (maize), and chicken meat have them as well.   Some people with Celiac might tolerate them without a problem, but I need to avoid them.  For those still having symptoms, cutting these out of our diet may improve symptoms.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @ainsleydale1700! First, it is very unlikely, given your genetic results, that you have celiac disease. But it is not a slam dunk. Second, there are some other reasons besides having celiac disease that your blood antibody testing was positive. There are some diseases, some medications and even (for some people) some foods (dairy, the protein "casein") that can cause elevated celiac blood antibody test scores. Usually, the other causes don't produce marginally high test scores and not super high ones. Having said that, by far, the most common reason for elevated tTG-IGA celiac antibody test scores (this is the most common test ordered by doctors when checking for celiac disease) is celiac disease itself. Please post back and list all celiac blood antibody tests that were done with their scores and with their reference ranges. Without the reference ranges for negative vs. positive we can't tell much because they vary from lab to lab. Third, and this is an terrible bum steer by your doc, for the biopsy results to be valid, you need to have been eating generous amounts of gluten up to the day of the procedure for several weeks.  Having said all that, it sounds most likely that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. The two share many common symptoms but NCGS is not autoimmune in nature and doesn't damage the lining of the small bowel. What symptoms do you have? Do you have any blood work that is out of norm like iron deficiency that would suggest celiac disease?

      HLA testing can definitely be confusing. Classic celiac disease risk is most strongly associated with having the full HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 heterodimer, which requires specific DQA1 and DQB1 genes working together. Your report shows you are negative for the common DQ2 and DQ8 combinations, but positive for DQB102, which is one component of the DQ2 pair. On its own, DQB102 does not usually form the full DQ2 molecule most strongly linked to celiac disease, which is likely why your doctor said you do not carry the typical “celiac genes.” However, genetics are only part of the picture. A negative gene test makes celiac disease much less likely, but not absolutely impossible in rare cases. More importantly, both antibody testing and biopsy are only reliable when someone is actively eating gluten; being gluten-free for four years before testing can cause both bloodwork and intestinal biopsy to appear falsely negative. Given your positive antibodies and ongoing symptoms, it may be reasonable to seek clarification from a gastroenterologist experienced in celiac disease about whether proper gluten exposure was done before testing and whether additional evaluation is needed.
