Scottsdale, Arizona

[hannahsue01]

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.

Oh how I miss Picazzos! I was in AZ this past January, right after I went gluten-free and discovered this gem. I have been craving it ever since WWWAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!

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!
