We are taking a vacation to Scottsdale Arizona this summer. I am trying to get a head start on planning all of this. Does anyone know of some good places to eat? I am told there are some resturaunts in the mall accrossed from our hotel but I don't know what resturaunts they have or if they have anything gluten-free? Thanks for your help!

Picazzo's Pizza

The BEST gluten free pizzeria in the West. They have tons of gluten free appetizers salads and desserts as well - its a Celiac paradise!

www.picazzos.com

Enjoy it like the rest of us out here!

Also, make sure you try In N Out Burger (order your double double burgers as "protein style with no sauce" and "cheesy fries well done" - this will direct them to make your double cheesburger in a lettuce wrap and to melt cheese over crispy fries - they have dedicated fryers)

The chef at the Sanctuary on Camelback mountain took very good care of me. It's a high end place, but it was great. You can Google them, they have a website.

When I was there, I ordered a second one to go, for later! LOL It was sssooooo good! We were leaving town after eating there, I didn't want to leave! Oh what i would give to be able to have a picazzos near by. Or even better just move to AZ, I love it there.

Picazzo's is definitely the best restaurant for Celiacs!! However, there are a lot of places in Scottsdale and the surrounding area that have great gluten free options. I have lived here for almost 4 years now and I have tried almost everywhere here is a list of my favorites:

Chevy's Mexican Restaurant: LARGE gluten free menu

Postinos Wine Cafe: No gluten free menu, but all ingredients are made from scratch...the salads are to die for

Bonefish Grill- in Mesa but worth the drive

Havana Cafe - Cuban food and the chef is very helpful

The Fish Market - Lots of options

AZ88 - no gluten free menu, but I have eaten there a ton of times with no problems...just talk to the server. The Salmon Chips are SOO good

PieZanos - gluten free pizza, deserts and salads

Caffe Boa: GREAT PLACE!!! It is on Mill Avenue in Tempe and they have amazing escargot, mozz/tom salad, lemon creamed artichokes..OH MY Goodness! You have to try

Gordon Biersch: also on Mill, has a great gluten free menu. The garlic fries and wedge salad are my favs!

I also work at The Seafood Market and Restaurant in Gilbert and if you ask for me I will make sure you have a great experience ( I have tons of Celiac regulars).

Plus there are Outbacks, PF Changs and PeiWei's all over the valley.

I hope this helps!

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      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.
