Most of the chain restaurants that are mentioned on this site have locations in the area. A local chain - Austin Grill - serves Tex-Mex and they have a gluten free menu.

Do you know what area you'll be staying in. I'm not familar with the Maryland suburbs but someone might have specific suggestions for that side of town.

We will be staying in Arlington, close to the Rosslyn Metro stop.

There is a Chipotle in that area (many threads here on the pros/cons regarding cc). There is also a BBQ place called Red, Hot and Blue that doesn't have a gluten free menu but I've survived work lunches at their other locations by getting one of their all meat platters - not ideal.

Assuming you are going to take the Metro and do the tourist thing. The American Art museum and National Portrait gallery are just a few blocks north of the Mall. They are open later than the other museums (until 7 on weekdays). One block from there is both a metro stop (Verizon Center/Chinatown) and a Legal Seafood.

P F Chang's chinese and Outback Steak house are 2 chains with gluten-free options. Although I wouldn't trust the fortune cookies or condiments that PF Changs gives out with the gluten-free options.

Thanks! I will suggest one of those places to some friends. Luckily I will have use of a kitchen for all but one night.

One question about PF Changs, (we don't have one in SWVA), will there be any shellfish or peanut cc issues I need to consider?

What part of SW Va? I frequently visit family around Abingdon and am always looking for gluten free option there or along I-81.

Roanoke, it's 2-3 hrs I think from Abingdon. We have Abuelos, Caberra's (Italian), and there's a restaurant in downtown Roanoke called Nico's. If you get reservations, they will prepare a Gluten-free meal.

I am not sure p-f changs will work. My son was diagnosed with more allergies this week. We added chicken, fish, rye, and barley. Ha, ha. The doctor was surprised but I wasn't. I knew a long time ago that he reacted to rye and barley. She said there was no way he could be celiac, but tested him anyway.

As for our trip, I will be staying in a hotel. Grandma doesn't understand even the allergies.

      Curious question

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
