Gluten Free In Chicago

[Vlynx]

I am headed to Chicago this weekend with my family (3 celiacs). Any suggestions for restaurants for downtown Chicago. We have eaten at Wildfire. Looking for something different. Thanks

Vinci - great gluten-free italian food

Ben Pao - upscale chinese with gluten-free menu

PF Changs - upscale chinese with gluten-free menu

Webber Grill - huge gluten-free menu

Bistro 110 is a nice restaurant. The chef has a son with a peanut allergy so she is super careful with celiacs.

Carnivale is fun - no gluten-free menu - but they are always able to prepare something gluten-free for me.

Fogo de Chao - a brazillian place where they have all these "meat skewers" and the most interesting salad bar ever. All but 2 of the meats are gluten-free. And they have rolls on the table that are gluten-free!! so good. They are made with yucca flour. I highly recommend it. Its expensive, but i am not sure if they have "kids pricing" or not. And you leave, and won't be hungry for days!!

Welcome to Chicago! I'm assuming you will be in the City. Here are some choices you have:

PF Changs 530 N. Wabash

Adobo 1610 N. Wells (it's in the River North area, which is about a 15 min. walk or a quick cab ride if the weather is nasty)

Those are a start. Since I've become gluten-free, I haven't eaten much in the City. I had heard some of the restaurants in the "Lettuce Entertain You" chain offer gluten-free options. If you are staying at a hotel, the desk clerk or concierge could help you locate those restaurants.

Hope you have fun - it's a great city!! Everything is all decked out for Christmas!
