Uno's Chicago Grill

Hey everyone!

Today I dined out at Uno's Chicago Grill. To my surprise not only do they have a full gluten free menu (not just a print out off the web anymore) but they also have gluten free pizza crusts. The crusts they are using right now are premade and ordered off of gluten free.com; however the manager stated that in two weeks they would have their own, fresh, made in house gluten free crusts. He said to spread the word. I'm really looking forward to their in house crust!

I'd also like to say the staff was unbelievably helpful at the University Blvd location. The manager made my pizza himself and brought it to me. They then labeled our to go boxes so that we wouldn't get the gluten pizza and the gluten free pizza mixed up. Some places you leave feeling like you've just bothered and irritated everyone with all your special requests, but they left me feeling very welcome and happy to have me. Go Unos!!!!

Glad you have an Uno that is on the ball. My recent experience with the gluten-free service, or lack of, at UNO's Brooklyn location was a disaster.

I posted on the other thread, but thought I'd mention it here too. We went to the Uno's in Raleigh last night and had a great experience, no glutening! We'll definitely be going back.

I went and tried the pizza Unos it was delisous. I had no problems with it but my daughter got glutened why would she get glutened and I didnt she only had one slice and I had 3. Ahhhhh its frustrating I feel so bad she is 22 months and I feel helpless.

hate to be a downer on everyone but I was very unimpressed with their pizza.. to be one of VERY Few offering gluten-free pizza, it was a bummer. I know that UNOs is the best deep dish pizza around so they should of come with something a little better! I used to work there, and I am still friends with management, and other other day the individual that handles the gluten-free menu was there, trust me I got his info and I plan on emailing him and giving him many suggestions. Resturants and other companies need to realize how much money they could be making with a gluten-free option on their menus! I am not just gonna sit around and accept the fact that I have to live with something that makes me eat pizza that tastes like card board. OH Hell to the naw! lol

I am very confident in my cooking ablities and my entrepreneur mind set.. Watch out world Gluten free is the new black! lol

:huh: I'm happy for you, but I am puzzled. A gluten-free pizza made in a normal pizza kitchen seems impossible. Wheat flour used in normal pizza crust is airborne. Most pizza shops have every square inch of space covered in wheat flour. I don't even take a chance on a salad from a pizza shop!

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
