I did search the forum but all I found were a couple of posts from last year about restaurants in upstate NY. I'm specifically looking in the Falls area.

Thanks for any help.

Hi Susan,

I live in Niagara Falls, and have only recently been diagnosed with gluten intolerance. It's hard here as nearly every restaurant seems to be either Italian or a burger joint...

A restaurant called Johnny Roccos, on Lundy's Lane at the corner of Dorchester has gluten-free pasta dishes. They charge a dollar more for that option, but the dishes are very good.

I was there last fall for two evenings. One night we ate at "Shoeless Joe's" (on the corner near the casino). Perhaps I got lucky but despite having no gluten free menu the waiter was very knowledgeable about gluten and talked to the kichen staff. The other place we ate was the Keg (they apparently have several locations) in the Embassy Suites. Again, the wait staff was knowledgable. Of course, if you go to a steak place it is pretty easy anyway to just get a steak and potato.

Are you going on to be on the US or Canadian side? Try buffaloglutenfree.org for the states side. I'm from the Niagara Region on the Canadian side, so if you are going to certain places, I might be able to guide you to some places close by.

Swiss Chalet is pretty good with allergen labelling . . . there is one in Niagara Falls. I'm familiar with the area, but don't eat out at all, so I'm afraid I don't have any other suggestions!

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
