Gluten-free Pizza In Orlando?

I actually live in Orlando (have been here 8 months now) and here's what else I have found:

If you're going to Celebration, the Columbia Restaurant has some choices. No separate menu, but I have the black bean soup, Columbia 1905 salad, and yellow rice with no problems at all. Most of the menu is "use your common sense" - I've had grilled steak and chicken there with no problems, but I always ask to make sure the grill is clean. It's a bit pricier than some of the places on here, but it's really good.

Pizza Fusion is finally open on Sand Lake Road in Orlando. It's in the heart of the tourist area, and as previously said, kind of expensive, but it IS good.

In Downtown Disney, the Rainforest Cafe is a great place to eat. When I explained to my waiter about my issues, he had one of the chefs come to my table to discuss my meal. I didn't know we were going beforehand so I didn't call ahead or anything, but the entire Disney corporation is great about food allergies.

Any of our well-know food chains with gluten-free menus, of course (Outback, Chili's, etc).

My personal favorite is a local Mexican place, located just off 417, on Orange Blossom Trail, called Azteca D'Oro. I've eaten there many times with no issues. They fry the chips in separate oil, the salsa is great, the food is yummy and filling, and the margaritas are amazing. This is a little farther from the touristy areas, but it's safe Mexican and very affordable.

Maybe I just went on a bad day, but I was not impressed with the pizza at Pizza Fusion at all. It wasn't yucky or anything, it just wasn't good, either. There's a restaurant in Sarasota that makes awesome pizza called Vertoris that I suppose has spoiled me with really great pizza (and a huge gluten-free menu: Open Original Shared Link. I had tried to go to Scalini's that day, but when we got there, they said they were out of the gluten free crust. In the future I'll call first, since it is a bit of a ways away from the parks.

Really looking forward to trying Azteca D'Oro now!

Pizza Fusion should be a good choice. They have great food and really good pizza. I would check them out or just see if any of the other restaurants have a gluten free entree.

There are a few gluten free restaurants with gluten free pizza in the Orlando area. To me, there are really only two good ones though. They are BJs Brewery and Red Brick Pizza. Both are found in multiple locations. Bjs Brewery has some of the best pizza i have ever had!

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
