gluten-free In Seattle?

Hi! I am going to visit my sister in Seattle in March & wanted to know if anyone had any restaurant tips for that big city for me! Does anyone have a favorite restaurant that does gluten-free to your standards? Or a bar that you know has gluten-free margaritas? I guess I am being optimistic about the bar, they won't really let my kids in but maybe a bar that also has a restaurant?

Thank you!

Jaimi

Outback makes a better marguarita than most Mexican restaurants in the Seattle area. You can get those with your dinner while you're sitting a booth with your kids. Other posters already gave you some good Seattle area restaurants. I would only add Canyons in Bothell, Mountlake Terrace and Redmond. They have a gluten/casein free menu and are great for families with kids.

Open Original Shared Link has their location (I forget the exact street).

Some of the other places are small, some are larger - it varies. You can find all of them on the web. Sunlight, for instance, is small (kinda hard to find on the internet - it's in Roosevelt), and while it doesn't advertise a gluten-free menu, they are clear about what's safe and what isn't. Impromptu, on the other hand, is very clear about it (most things are gluten-free), but is a *much* more upscale (though still quite small) restaurant.

Hi Jaimi:

You're welcome! I just noticed you're in Medford, OR. My brother and SIL live in Eagle Point near Medford. She just recently saw my celiac naturopathic doc in Seattle. Her test results indicated she has dairy, egg and cane sugar allergies as well as gluten intolerance. She says shopping for gluten free, allergy free foods in the Medford area is challenging. I sent her a box of gluten-free foods for Christmas. Where do you find gluten-free and other allergy free foods in Medford?

Oh wow! I live 2 miles from Eagle Point. Small World! I get my food at Fred Meyer, and then my corn/rice cake things at Food 4 Less. Fred Meyer is more expensive with less of a selection but it is a nicer store with a drop-off child play area so it is worth it to me! Food 4 Less has a great gluten-free selection but the store is not very nice! Popular place though. I try to be vigilant with my dieting so I do not eat many gluten-free treats so sometimes I am glad we do not have anything like a gluten-free bakery here! I just wish we had more restaurants, I get tired of Outback! I have eaten other places & just asked them to cook for me specially & never had a problem. My problem is that I don't get any symptoms with accidental glutening so I have never known if someone glutened me or not! Does your brother have kids? Do they live near the golf course or out in the country? Are they both gluten intolerant or have celiac disease?

jaimi alderson Enthusiast

Couple more quick things, the Co-op in Ashland has no-boil gluten-free lasagna noodles & Market of Choice in Ashland has the gluten-free Budweiser beer, which I didn't like but at least they have it!

From a purely gluttonous perspective, I can recommend DaVinci's for the danish (and I never really thought I was into danish before -- this was indistinguishable from non-gluten-free danish from a decent bakery). Impromptu is totally worth it, but it's a pricier restaurant with a wine bar, so isn't such a great place for kids.

burdee Enthusiast

Thanks, Jaimi. I believe my SIL knows about the coop in Ashland and Fred Meyer in Medford, but I'm not sure if she knows about Food 4 Less. Also I don't know whether they live near a golf course, but they live on Heather Way. My SIL has gluten intolerance and other allergies as well as Candida problems. She will finish a course of Nyastin soon. Her blood tests for celiac disease were negative, but she obviously reacts negatively to gluten. My brother likes and eats gluten-free foods with her, but has never tested for celiac disease or experienced gastrointestinal problems. He may have other symptoms, but says he's healthy. I have the celiac gene and my mom had obvious celiac disease symptoms. My brother and SIL have grown kids. One daughter has ADHD and an autistic child, but she hasn't tried a gluten-free/CF diet for him. Another son's wife and their daughter has obvious celiac disease symptoms, but neither of them have tested yet. However my brother and SIL sold their house recently and plan to move to be nearer their kids in the Tri-Cities area. She hopes to find more gluten-free, dairy/egg free foods in that area.

Wild Ginger has some great servers who are super ready to help you find items on the menu that you can eat. I have eaten there once since I went gluten-free, and had a wonderful experience! Their food is really fantastic. Also, I've only heard raves about Impromptu, so do try it. The Chef there is engaged to a celiac and knows all about making food safely that you can enjoy!

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
