Looking For Places To Eat In Utah And Las Vegas

Hey all. This is my first post here. Thought I should probably introduce myself before I jump into anything. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in May '06 after living through the symptoms of it for several months. I am also a type 1 Diabetic, which makes things even more difficult. After dealing with the new Celiac diet for the past 14 months or so, I've felt infinitely better, both physically and mentally. I do miss a lot of the foods that I used to eat, but I've convinced myself that by not eating them I'll be much healthier.

Anywho, on to the actual topic at hand. I am heading out west to Utah and Las Vegas with my family in a couple of days (leaving the morning of 7/28), and I have done NO planning for finding places to eat due to the fact that I was without Internet access for a couple weeks prior to this message. I was wondering if anyone knew of any restaurants that have a gluten-free menu. While in UT, I'll be in Springdale, Moab, and Torrey (if that helps at all). Although I know my family will do anything that needs to be done to help me eat, I don't want to burden them with only being able to eat of the the cooler (so to speak). If anyone could help out, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Matt

Matt,

I don't really have any recommendations for that part of Utah since they are quite small towns. I am fairly new to eating gluten free, but I have read several posts about non-chain restaurants seem to be more accommodating. There is a place called Smitty's in Moab that I LOVE, not sure about the gluten free though. Anyways, not that I was much help, but I hope you have a fun and safe trip.

WOW, thanks for that list. I wasn't able to find anything like this specific to Utah, so thanks. This is a great list, but the small towns you mentioned will not have these restaurants. I do knot that Moab has Burker King, McDonald's, and maybe a Wendy's.

I also just found out that San Francisco Sourdough Pizza in downtown SLC has a gluten-free pizza. I can't wait to try it, but I've heard it's really good. It's between 200 and 300 S. on Main Street.

Yahooooo!!!!

Places in Vegas to eat gluten-free:

1. PF Chang's in Planet Hollywood/Aladdin Casino

2. Outback steakhouse on Las Vegas Blvd.

3. In N Out Burger (all around but one near strip is !-15 and Tropicana)

4. Samba Brazilian Steakhouse in Mirage

5. Fix at bellagio (great Ribeye and lobster mashed potatoes)

6. Burger Bar in Mandalay Bay (Burger and Salad)

7. Most Casino cafes can do eggs and hash browns in separate clean skillet for you.

Hope this helps,

I know its a little late for the original poster, but hopefully this can help someone else heading out to Las Vegas -

I just returned from a trip out that and the most accomodating place was actually Margaritaville on the strip. The waitress was very accomodating and checked multiple times with the chef to make sure everything was okay. They had a 'doh' moment when they put bread ontop of my perfectly Gluten Free Jambalaya, but they were happy to get me a new dish. I had absolutely no problems with eating the delicious meal.

Cheers!

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
