Arpeggio's - Spring House, Pa

Hi All...wanted to share a positive restaurant experience at Arpeggio Restaurant in Spring House, PA. This is in Montgomery County (outside Philly) between Blue Bell and Upper Dublin. My coworkers picked it for an end of year luncheon and I emailed the restaurant ahead of time since I was more than a little concerned. I got a great response and ended up having a great lunch as well. I ordered the seafood kabobs with brown rice and didn't get sick at all!! Check out their menu at www.arpeggiobyob.com. On the menu page they even mention food allergies. I pasted the email I received below in case anyone's interested. Another restaurant to add to the very short list :)

Please let your server know about your gluten allergy before you order. Our kitchen staff is prepared to handle cooking for those with gluten allergies, as it has become so much more prevalent! I would recommend the brown rice, not the white rice as it is made with vermicelli! Also, anything grilled like the lamb kabob, filet or salmon with no sauce. Please make sure to specify brown rice when you order. We also have a tilapia that is baked; if you order it without the sauce it would be fine, as it is served with spinach saut

I am so glad to hear about this place as it less than 10 minutes from me and I would never have considered it. Thanks for posting.

I live very close to this place! I went to Chicago Grill (Unos) on Friday and they have a Gluten-Free menu to give you right as you walk in. I was happy with the choices too. ;)

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
