Outback Steakhouse - Roswell, Georgia

I had the pleasure of eating at the Outback Steakhouse in Roswell, GA today. Celiacs in Atlanta have been raving about this location for several months and I finally decided to check it out. Wow! They get it. All you have to do is request the gluten-free menu and they take care of the rest. This location has a dedicated prep area and dedicated fryer that is covered when not in use. They can also accomodate dairy and soy-free (these are the ones I asked about but I'm sure they can accomodate other intolerances.)

In addition to the standard Outback gluten-free menu, they have:

Bloomin' Onion

Gold Coast Coconut Fried Shrimp

Bushman Shrooms

No Rules Pasta

Toowomba Pasta

Mac-A-Roo N'Cheese

Bloomin' Burger (with the onions)

Plus a few more...

Their gluten-free pasta is Tinkyada and their buns are Kinnikinnick. They also have a selection of gluten-free beer (Bard's Tale, Green's) and cocktails.

Wonderful! Don't I wish there was something like this close by to me! I'll have to keep watch on the one that is at least within traveling distance. I could get excited over this :lol:

It was a wonderful experience especially for a super sensitive celiac like me. I'm so excited that the concept of cross contamination is finally getting traction with restaurants. I also like that more restaurants are starting to offer gluten-free versions of their existing menu items. Hopefully if we support estabishments like this one things will continue to improve and more restaurants will take note.

Is there anything kid-friendly to do in Roswell, GA? That might actually be vacation worthy!!! Are they as knowledgeable about other allergens also? Our Outback in Lancaster, which used to be relatively safe, has really gone down hill lately and we don't go very often anymore because I got sick so many times in a row.

Being a "super sensitive" myself, I never eat in restaurants but I just can't get the thought of a gluten-free Bloomin' Onion out of my mind :D

Talk about heaven! :rolleyes: Wish I was anywhere near Roswell.....ironically, I used to live in Lawrenceville, GA......

Hi! Has anyone been here recently? I am thinking of going in about a week and a half. All the info I can find is from 2009. Also, just to make sure, this location is at

655 Crossville Rd.

Roswell, GA 30075

right?

Thanks!

Laurel,

I ate there for the Local Gluten Intolerance group for their Thanksgiving dinner. It was great. I had no problems. It is a great place to go. This is where I was introduced to Udi bread which is great also. I would recommend this one for anyone.

Roswell GA is very close to Atlanta GA and there is tons of kid friendly things to do! GA Aquarium, World of Coke, Atlanta ZOO, etc.. very vacation worthy! It is Outback's test kitchen for Allergy menus, being wildly successful I hope they plant another test kitchen soon!!

If you are travelling through Atlanta, it is worth the detour to go to the Outback. We travelled from Jacksonville to Illinois, and planned to stop for the night north of Atlanta. We decided it was worth stopping early and going over to Roswell to try the Outback. There are sevearal hotels at the interstate exit nearest Roswell, and they are just a few miles away from the restaurant. We did a takeout, and the food (3 different meals plus a bloomin' onion) were all excellent!! Now how do we get more restaurants to offer gluten-free foods of this quality?

I wonder if they will adopt this elsewhere?

FYI we got the Bloomin' onion recipe off the web and substituted Besan Flour for Wheat flour, tastes exactly the same if you want to make it at home.

There are several chains that offer gluten-free menus in Atlanta and also in their other locations. They are Outback, Carrabbas, and Cheeseburger in Paradise. The Olive Garden also has a gluten free menu, including pasta, but you have to be careful that your server makes a big point of the meal being gluten free so you don't get the regular pasta by mistake. It is obviously different in appearance though.

Other restaurants are offering gluten free choices too and many have made it to the GIG website for the Atlanta area.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By NanCel · Posted

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/
