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.

We live in Maine too and my four year old loves the pizza from Uno's. Finally a place where we can get take out for the family! We've had it several times and he hasn't gotten sick ever from it.

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!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
