Maggiano's. They took good care of me.

Chipotle. Just don't get the tortillas .... the burrito bowls are good.

I know there is a Bonefish Grill in Tampa...Actually on their website there are some by Clearwater and St. Pete. Smokey Bones doesn't have a gluten free menu but their BBQ and sauces are gluten free, so is their cole slaw, broccoli, asparagus, apples and green beans. I have NEVER had a problem there and they always seem to be extremly helpful and accomodating. Hope these help! I know how it stinks to eat the same stuff all the time.

I'm new to gluten-free and so far the only places I've tried eating out are Tijuana Flats and Cold Stone. This is what TF sent me when I asked what they had:

"-(Chips, Hard Tacos, Tostadas, or Taquitos) are gluten free but are fried in the same fryer as our flour and wheat tortillas which may cause contamination.

-The Dos Enchiladas are gluten free but are pre-dipped in the oil as well.

Here is a list of some menu items you might want to try:

-Dos Enchiladas (request not to be dipped in oil)

-Salad with out the shell

-Rice bowl no shell

-Fajitas with corn tortillas

-Dos soft tacos with corn tortillas

-Meats, beans, rice, and queso are gluten free!

-None of our food items contain MSG!"

I haven't been to a local one, but grabbed some out of town on Wednesday and they were really great, and understood what I needed, asking if I wanted rice, etc (I just got the salad minus shell and some queso). Hopefully the one in Oldsmar or Largo (I think it's Largo, maybe P. Park) will be just as wonderful.

I've written Evos, but not heard back yet -- same with Five Guys, though another thread on this board okays them.

So far not found anywhere non-chain that could accommodate me with anything but veggies, but I haven't been looking very long.

I miss Fortunato's. :(

I do well at Sukhothai. They have 2 locations (Carollwood and New Tampa). The food is VERY good too. :)

OH and Sami's Bakery is NOT Gluten Free. Read their labels. And at my Celiac Support group in Tampa, the leader warned everyone again. People have gotten sick off of their food.

Well my husband loves fine dining. BERNS Steakhouse really goes the extra mile. When you make your reservation, let them know and they will prepare special french onion soup, potato crisps, regular butter for the baked potato and prepare your steak accordingly also. Flemmings has been sooooo good to us! they always work with us and make us feel right at home. Roys is presently working on a Gluten Free menu but the chef prepared a delicious dinner for my son! I hope this helps!

Guppy's on Gulf Blvd. in Indian Rocks just added a new gluten-free menu. I am going there for vacation in July and can't wait to eat there! :P

Very yummy pizza!! My "normal" friends also enjoyed their meals.

I'd be interested to get information on the Tampa Support group ... I'm north in Citrus County, but it would be nice to have some friends like me ...

Roy's gluten free menu is great and they don't cross contaminate. The menu changes periodically and you can sit at the chef's table and watch them prepare the food-FUN! We've been there twice recently and have had a great time.

      I was diagnosed at 6 after having severe stomach pain after eating white bread or any kind of gluten my sister had one done aswell I was scared for the biopsy but thats bc the gas mask thing but now that I am a 14yr old female struggling with severe chronic pain making my body ache for no reason making it hard to sleep and do the things I love like playing spot which I love to do but I can sometimes not even be able to walk bc my knees hurt so bad I can or my hips or back the only think I wish for is to be a normal kid which I can't even be and I get accused of faking pain bc there is no physical things to notice especially at school when one day it will be so sore im limping the next im walking perfectly fine idk if its all from celiac disease but im the only one in my family that has this problem

      I noticed eating gluten-free or CGF foods have higher sugar and sodium some. No added sugar protein bars I found better with plant fiber. I wanted to know what are you go to besides whole fruits/veggies that you find are healthy for you where you can feel eating normal without hurting yourself or health. I was looking into subscription based like Thrift to see if there is something that is healthier CGF that can make me feel normal. Thanks
    • Jmartes71
      Thankyou because I met up with K B with well known bay area hospital once and she said she knows I don't like to take meds, I said thats incorrect, I have issues.Thats the one that said I was deemed " unruly " when she admitted I was celiac when I asked why am I going through this.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.
