We had lunch at Chili's Sunday and my daughter hasn't had any kind of reaction yet... we all order from the g.f. menu.. she had the kid's size ribs and I had the steak.. it was really good.. I was surprised. The staff there (Knoxville, TN) were very accomadating also. I am sure we will be back!

I've had consistently good meals and no reactions at the Lincoln Nebraska one as well. The manager was outstanding, came to my table and went thru the menu with me the first time. It was one of the better restaurant experiences I've had. Hu Hot in Lincoln is excellent as well.

Glad it worked well for you too!

We had a great experience at the Chili's in Lancaster, PA also. The meal was great and I didn't get sick at all afterwards. :)

That's great to hear!

Do they have an actual gluten-free menu at the restaurant or do I have to print out their menu online and bring it with me to show the waiter?

I always get the Old Timer Burger, no bun, mashed potatoes (no gravy) and a bowl of baked potato soup...

Every time we head up there to eat they never have the baked potato soup! :angry: No Fair! I usually get the margarita lime chicken with no tortilla strips, its pretty tasty.

the one in Lincoln gave me print out sheets that listed all allergens (peanuts, eggs, milk, wheat, etc.) plus a specific one for gluten free foods. The manager took them back after I ordered and said they get updated ones every two to three weeks so each time I come in, to ask for their allergy lists.

I really like their honey bbq sirloin.

Me too! When do they have this soup?!

I usually get the burger no bun and steamed broccoli, but the last 2 times I got the margarita chicken and it was really good.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
