I went to dinner tonight with a friend to Mimi's restaurant in San Bernardino, Ca

I, of course began by telling our server about Celiac and apologizing ahead of time if I'm a pain.

The next thing I knew the Manager came to my table with a note book in hand. He has just been moved to this location, and told me what at the former location he had several regular customers and and employee who were Celiacs. So, this wonderful man began to put together a notebook with the ingredients in every sauce, dressing, soup, etc on the menu. He was able to tell me exactly what was in the sauce on the Salmon, and what salad dressing was safe.

He; however, could not suggest a gluten free bread :~)

As most of you know eating out can be very frustrating. This guy made the experience a joy!!

i know I will be eating there on a regular basis now. I hope all of you in this area will go and thank him for his efforts.

I have been to a couple of Mimi's in Riverside County before. I printed out their gluten free menu. I had a terrible waitress who brought me gravy on my roast beef and croutons on my salad and none on my friend's. We were there for lunch and were late getting back because of all the mistakes.

I had a better experience at another location when I ordered salmon.

Thanks for the information. I'll have to check out my local Mimi's.

      Tammy, who is saying they aren't safe for celiacs? Are you saying that is stated on the product packaging itself or that you are reading where people on forums like this one are claiming they aren't safe? Who is "they"?
    • Scott Adams
      If a product is labelled "gluten-free" it is considered to be safe for people with celiac disease (in the USA they need to test below 20 ppm). Some people prefer to eat only foods that are certified gluten-free, which are supposed to test below 10 ppm, however, they don't always test this low.

      Why are so many gluten free items not safe for celiacs. I read labels all the time. I don’t know how many times they say that and are not safe for people who have celiacs. So confused. Help….

      Welcome to the forum, @Jay Heying! What is the reason your doctor is recommending this?
