Cantina Laredo

Just wanted to let everyone know that Cantina Laredo has a great gluten-free menu. You can even eat the chips and salsa (the red, not green). I live in Arizona, but the restaurant is also in Texas. Each time I go to Cantina Laredo, the waiter seems very knowledgeable. I've been several times and have never had any problems. The gluten-free menu also has more than just a couple of items on it. Hope that gives some of you one more place to out.

Hi Jenny!

Just wondering if you've been to any of the ones in TX?

I was just curious if one was any better than another.

Thx!

Sorry, but I haven't been to any of the ones in TX. I get back to Dallas 4-6 times a year and I'm going to try it on my next visit. I think Cantina Laredo started there. I love going there because I love Mexican food and don't have to worry about every little thing there! I don't know what part of Texas you are in, but there is another restaurant that I did go to, not Cantina. It was a seafood place. Sorry I can't remember the name. I'll ask my sister where we went if you want to know. It was in a new shopping center in Highland Village.

I also heard about a great gluten-free restaurant in Plano. I'll have to look for the name of that also. If you are in the Dallas area and know of some great restaurants, please let me know. Sorry about the rambling, but I get so excited when I go to a restaurant with a gluten-free menu.

When you do make it to one in Texas, I'd be curious to know what you think!

I'm in the north Dallas area, so if you can find out the name of the seafood place, I'd love to go try it out.

I don't get over towards Highland Village very often (unless I'm going to visit the in-laws), but I'll keep an eye open the next time I'm over that way to see if I can spot it.

I'll bet the place in Plano you're thinking of is Delicious N Fit/Laura's Bistro. I've heard that's really good too, but haven't been there yet.

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for other restaurants, and if I discover any I'll definitely let you know!

I will let you know when I go to one in Dallas. It will probably be around the end of the year. Also I will try to PM you if I can figure out how to do this. There used to be a Cantina Laredo in Addison off of Beltline. Also one further north I think off of North Dallas Toll Road (maybe around Frankford?)

Well, I'm always around, so next time you come this way, maybe we can go visit one of these places together! :)

In case you have trouble with the PM feature, just click on my username, and then click 'Send Message'.

Hope that helps!

You just ask for it when you go to the restaurant. It's printed out, so you don't have to worry what's what. I live in Arizona, so I don't know if they all have the menu, but I would think they would. You may want to call first and ask for the manager. We go to the one out here quite often and never a problem.

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
