This restaurant sent me a flier...just wondering if anyone had gluten-free meal there? Their website doesn't state anything about gluten-free...

I have not tried Ruby Tuesday's yet, my parents love the place but for some reason I just do not feel comfortable going there. I am hoping someone on here can share something though. In the future it would help me to decide whether or not to venture there.

This is from 7/11/06. Doesn't look promising

This is in response to your communication to us regarding

potential allergic reactions to the food we serve. We appreciate and

understand your request for information. Unfortunately Ruby Tuesday

does not and cannot supply a listing of allergens that might be present

in our menu items for the following reasons:

- Although we require our suppliers to meet high standards for

quality and safe food handling, we cannot know for an absolute certainty

if the food items we purchase from outside sources do or do not contain

allergens.

- It is always possible, as we are preparing food in over 700

restaurants every day, that one item will be substituted for another,

and that the substitute product's contents may be different from the

ingredients in the products we normally use.

- As food is being prepared in our restaurants, it often comes

in contact with other food, so even though a specific item may not

contain allergens, it could be affected by another food item that does.

For those reasons, we believe it is better to tell you we cannot provide

the information you are requesting than to give you information that is

not accurate and could be detrimental rather than helpful. We hope you

understand and appreciate your interest in Ruby Tuesday.

Thank you,

Cynthia Ackerman

I have to agree with Colleen on this one....

I have tried Ruby Tuesday. The choices are very limited and I would not touch the salad bar. I did find that the manager was very attentive and consulted with the chief (with the use of my Triumph Dining cards). I had a chicken dish.

At any local restaurant, I would suggest go during off dining times and sit down and discuss your options with the management/chief. When I have done that, I have found everyone very accommodating.

I was in the Chocolate Ave Grill in Hershey on Friday for lunch with some friends from work. I have posted before about good service I had there before.

Friday they went over and beyond. I asked about the fries. The waitress came back and told me, there was no wheat on the fries but they are fried in the same fryer as their breaded shrimp. I was so happy she took that extra step.

Anyway, I opted for a cheese steak without the bun. I was very impressed! I tell everyone who is coming to Hershey or lives in the area. This place is very affordable and great service.

I have eaten at Ruby Tuesday's a few times. Both times I got a grilled chicken breast with swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato and pickle and a baked potato (requested for it not to be cut open) and sour cream. I treat it like any other restaurant that has a burger-style menu.

I been to Ruby Tuesday's twice , both times I was glutened. The food was good tasting but I will not go there again.... they just don't get cc ..... in fact one server told me you can't get sick from food unless it is spoiled!!!!That did it for me.....

Wouldn't go near it. One of those places that basically sends most of their foods pre-frozen and the folks there have no idea what's in it. Overpriced and, as you can see, will only waffle on what's in the food.

BLAECKY. My staff took me to Ruby's for Boss's Day. It was so sweet - they took me to lunch and wanted to buy, I felt obligated to go. Even thought I couldn't stand the place before diagnosis. I ordered what one of the previous responders mentioned, a very plain chicken breast with cheese and steamed veggies on the side. No flavor what so ever. And you guessed it, I got crapped up. God knows from what! Next time for Boss's day, I will buy and I will choose.

I did this at a local restaurant at 2 in afternoon and the waitress kind of rudely told me to get lost in so many words (manager wasn't expected until height of dinner meal 6PM) and she was too busy to talk to me....very disappointing and I didn't return at 6 PM since that is a real busy time for them on a Saturday night.

I had a good experience at a Ruby Tuesday. I didn't choose to go there, but went with family. I had a plain burger with cheese, steamed broccoli with butter only and a salad. I didn't get glutened and the manager was very helpful. It isn't someplace that I would go to frequently, but they were helpful when I needed to eat there.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.
