There's PF Changs, as well as Cafe Baldo in I believe Seaford or Massapequa and Mamma's in Oakdale. I think there are reviews of both on this board if you search through old posts.

Mama's in Oakdale is one of my favorite restaurants (and I live in Westchester).

I Love Gluten Cafe is in Wantagh (but in my opinion, not that great).

Other than PF Chang's and Outback those are the only ones I can think of, but I know there is a bbq place also in Westbury (something with Dave's in the name) that is very aware of gluten.

And there are a lot of great health food stores on LI that carry products you can't find in Whole Foods. In Plainview there is Dr. B Wells and Get Healthy America (right near each other but I think they both have some things that the other doesn't).

Hope this helps.

Outback Steakhouse in Westbury is great. The wait staff really gets it. I haven't been to it yet but Legal Seafoods also has a gluten free menu.

Please check with Famous Dave's (the bbq place mentioned above) before eating there. We used to eat there all the time prior to my being gluten free and when I emailed to ask if I could eat there safely as a celiac they basically told me no. I think I have the email at home. If I can find it I will post their response. I emailed them a couple of months ago so maybe their policy has changed which would be great because I love that place.

Yes, I ditto MAMAS in Oakdale (631) 567-0909 (there are 2 Mamas in Oakdale, this is the number to the gluten-free one!), CAFE BALDO (not Gluten Cafe) in Wantagh, Carrabas in Smithtown (and I believe Lindenhurst? or somewhere else on the Island), You mentioned Outback, Chilis... PF Changs in Westbury. I have also had luck at Grand Luxe Cafe in the Roosevelt Field Mall (I got an omlet and salad, but the wait staff was extremely helpful). I also heard that Chipotle Grill has gluten-free menu (but have never tired it), there is one just opposite the Nassau Coliseum (by Hofstra), and one by the Broadway Mall on Rt. 107. I also *risk* panara's salad in a pinch. Pizzeria Uno also has a gluten-free menu, I have gone to the one in Lynbrook, and have been OK. Also, Charlie Browns in Lynbrook, Commack/Smithtown/Mineola has a gluten-free menu. I have eaten at Laguna Grill in Westbury and Locust Valley, and was able to get a steak salad (no seasoning), and they were very accommodating.

I have also heard good things (I think even a gluten-free menu) about Long River Chinese in West Islip on Union Blvd, Oystermens in Sayville on Foster Ave, and Grecian Caf

My sister and I (both Celiacs) need to get a Gluten Free pizza from Cafe Baldo in Wantagh every week or two. The owner/manager is a Celiac herself, so she takes it seriously.

Cafe Baldo

2849 Jerusalem Ave

Wantagh, NY

The crust needs work (it's a bit limp), but it's the best Gluten Free pizza we've ever had.

However, it ain't cheap.

It goes about $22 for a pizza, and toppings are very expensive.

We usually just get a regular pie, and toss some olives on it when we get home :o

The also have a full gluten free menu, from pastas to chicken parmagiana, and the portions for the pasta and entrees are pretty huge.

For the non-celiacs, they serve adequate italian food as well.

However, I just love the pizza. That's one of the things I have the hardest time with :(

Just want to add that in Rockville Centre, there's a restaurant called Open Original Shared Link, that has a Gluten Free menu.

One of the owner's family is Celiac, so they have a dedicated kitchen within the establishment for Gluten Free cooking to avoid cross-contamination. That includes a deep fryer, for big steak fries :D

Redbridge beer in bottles, altough I think most stuff like pasta's/bread, etc. are simply store bought, frozen then cooked. However, they do offer lots of regular dining options that you can feel safe with.

Pretty good restaurant all around.

Correction, there are 2 Mama's...one in Oakdale, which is raved about, and the other is in Sayville. No one has mentioned as to whether the Sayville location serves gluten free, or not. I think I heard that it isn't.

Mama's caters our support group's Christmas party every year.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
