Hello,

I've never been there before. Just wondering if anyone can recommend what they have good that is gluten free. I printed out their menu and I'm thinking about the baby back ribs. Is the sauce ok that comes with them??

Thanks,

Joni

They have lots of good gluten-free food. Go to their website and check the FAQ.

The list says it expires in 6/07 but I asked the manager and she said the ingredients of what I wanted to eat hadn't changed since then.

I like the pepper bacon wrapped filet. The ribs are also listed as gluten-free but don't eat the fries.

Enjoy!

I would also call ahead and speak with the manager...that way they can let the chef know.

Oh boy, what a bad experience!

First of all, I called them Wednesday and spoke with a manager to make reservations because we had a party of 15. They said no problem we will have tables set up for you. Then I asked if they had a gluten free menu and they said "Yes" we do. I asked a few questions and she seemed to be aware of Celiac and what the requirements were. So far so good.

So, we got there tonight and they had no tables set up for us. We had to wait about 20 minutes for them to prepare our tables. Then they told me they couldn't find thier gluten free menu and they couldn't access their own website from their computer because they were locked out of it. OK, so I figured I would just get a steak, baked potato, and steamed veggie...no problem.

Everyone orders, gets there meal and I am still waiting for mine. The waiter comes out and says that they accidently sprinkled the seasoning on my steak and they had to make me a new one. So my dinner was 20 or so minutes late coming out...not good, but at least they didn't just give me the original steak.

Then, we all had coffee after. They ran out of the little creamers and brought out cups of milk for coffee. Fine, this stuff happens and I didn't get upset. We poured the milk in our coffee and it all curdled. Also, my Aunt got tea and the water was totally cold. OK, so now I've had totally enough. They brought us all new coffee and new milk but really the meal was ruined by now.

I hope it's just my imagination and I really didn't eat that much, but I feel bloated (my main symptom of Celiac prior to diagnosis) right now. This is not good.

This was my first experience at Longhorne. I can either

A) Never go back

B) Write this whole thing up and send them a letter about my experience

I know what I should do, but I am just so frustrated right now.

Our local Longhorn is wonderful & very causious. I've eaten there several times & never had a problem in fact I ask they put a bit of salt & pepper on my steak when cooking it in foil & they told me I could do it at my table. They would not take any chances. The manager came over several times to see if everything was ok.

I think I would write to the corperate office & tell them. The steaks are not cheap & I'm glad they found their mistake before you ate the steak.

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
