Hi Ya'll

I was just wondering is there any gluten-free restrauants in or any restrauants that offer gluten-free in the DFW area preferrably the Arlington area.

Thanks Donna in Arlington TExas

I live on the OTHER side of the world of DFW-out by Plano. This place is in Plano and everything in the resturant is gluten-free and a lot is Dairy free. It was the best sandwhich and well worth the drive from Arlington if you have the time. The staff is also very knowledgable about food allergies and such and were very good. You can also order from them online if you have a special event.

The second link is my life saver.

I hope this helps you some. I really like Delicious-n-fit and with it being local owned, I like to try to support them any way I can.

red hot and blue has many gluten-free things, theres one on collins and 30.also, logans by the northeast mall is great, i always get a plain steak with no seasoning or anything and a baked potato. They also don't use crutons in their normal salad, and as long as you get it without cheese or bacon you're good. and, chipotle on collins!

Hey Donna,

I have visited Delicious-N-Fit in Plano on two Saturday afternoons for blue cheese hamburgers. It was so satisfying to be able to bite into a real burger on a real bun (albiet a somewhat unorthodox one) that someone else cooked.

It is a small unassuming place with a surprisingly ambitious menu. They also have a separate room stocked with various gluten-free products such as flour mixes, cake mixes, cookie mixes, etc., and frozen items that they bake and offer for sale.

best regards, lm

LM,

I just noticed you are in Wylie. I live out that way also. There is a Taco place on Highway 78 called Tacos y Salsa. All their tacos come on corn tortillas. We ate there all the time before I was gluten-free, because it was the one place that "didn't make my stomach hurt" I still eat there at least once a week without problems. The owners is extremely nice and usually there and willing to answer any question you have about the food.

Bad me, I have never actually checked the ingredients, (I should I know) but I have never gotten sick from eating there.

Kat,

And the best part is, they have a very nice selection of 100% agave tequilas! I'm a big tequila lover. It's actually more than a taco place. I was surprised how big it is inside. But I understand they expanded a while back.

I talked to the manager at the new Asados (between Wyle and Sachse), and he assured me they use corn tortillas also for their enchaladas and no wheat flour in the chili sauce. We haven't tried it yet, but my co-workers have been there several times and like it. They have a nice menu, with items such as quail, etc.

If your ever over on Greenville Ave in Dallas, I highly recommend the enchaladas at Cowboys Chicken. They are very different, more of a southwestern taste than a tex-mex, and are to die for. Three corn tortillas filled with their rotisserie white meat chicken (cooked in an open brick oven), and covered with a delicious white/light green sauce. A little spicy, a little tangy, and a lotta flavor! I don't know what kind of sauce it is, it may have cheese ?, avocado ?, cilantro ?, I don't know. The chef assured me there is no wheat flour in it and I have had it twice lately with no reactions.

best regards, lm

That is good to know on Asada's-I have heard it is really good. And I am excited about Cowboy Chicken-I work right off Greenville and used to enjoy it before.

The story behind the "Taco Place" is when they first opened two years ago, it was literally 3 tables and the salsa bar-about a 1/4 of what it is now. He has actually done two expansions, and at least one menu expansion.

What is your favorite tequila? I am a Don Julio Repasado fan and when in Los Cabos-Cabo Wabo B) Is Taco y Salsa's margarita mix gluten free? I have been craving me a margarita........

Also, if you like fish-Fish City Grill will cook anything dry.

Don Julio is good, I was given a bottle of the repasado for my birthday (can't bring myself to pay $40-$50+ for a bottle of anything). I've aquired most of the really good stuff as presents.

I discovered "real" tequila about 10 years ago while making numerous working trips to Mexico. The 100% agave tequila was still mostly undiscovered by the general public here then. Of course it was much cheaper then, especially in Mexico.

My favs are El Tesoro, Chinaco, Centinela, Don Julio, Casa Noble, Heradura. I've recently bought a bottle of La Cava De Don Agustin reposado that I enjoyed. Also aquired three bottles (one of each type) of Fina Estampa. Not available here (or Mexico), it's imported by an Oregon Co. I got it from a New Jersey distributer (pm for details). It's very good.

Have you tried Sotol? It's different, I use it in margaritas (mixed with other tequilas). Nicely packaged, yet very reasonably priced. It's technically not tequila as it's made from wild harvested agaves. But it is 100% agave. Goody Goody has it for $23. Hacienda De Chihuahua Sotol reposado (also blanco & a

      What are Celiac Disease Symptoms?

      In addition to gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, I had gastroesophageal reflux that was becoming intolerable despite treatment with PPIs and antacids. When I went gluten-free, the GERD lessened tremendously (as did the other symptoms).

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      Thank you so very much Scott. Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful. If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for.

      My only proof

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry.

      Methylprednisone treatment for inflammation?

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many...

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisone treatment for inflammation?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.

      I think I am gluten intolerant

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Based on what you've described, it is absolutely possible you are dealing with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS).  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.   Your situation is a classic presentation: a negative celiac panel but a clear, recurring pattern of symptoms triggered by gluten. The symptoms you listed—particularly the extreme fatigue, bloating, neurological-psychiatric symptoms like depression and anxiety, and even the skin manifestations like facial flushing—are all well-documented in research on NCGS. It's important to know that you are not alone in experiencing this specific combination of physical and emotional reactions. The only way to know for sure is to commit to a strict, 100% gluten-free diet under the guidance of a doctor or dietitian for a period of several weeks to see if your symptoms significantly improve. It is also crucial to rule out other potential causes, so discussing these symptoms with a gastroenterologist is a very important next step.
