Gluten Free In Miami, Florida


Ms. Celiac

Hey,

I was wondering if anyone has suggestions on gluten free restaurants and/or health food stores in Miami, Florida? I'm going to be visiting the area (specifically South Beach) soon and wanted to make sure I knew of some gluten free places beforehand.

Thanks!

I am not very familiar with the South Beach area, but i do know that there is a Pizza Fusion in teh North Miami area that has gluten-free pizza. When I you coming to Miami? I will try to get more infor from our local celiac support group. you can email me directly at ticap13@bellsouth.net

It has not been my experience that South beach is very celiac friendly, but maybe some of this has changed more recently? In fact, even before I went gluten free, I was never really impressed with much of the food on Lincoln road and some of it on Ocean Drive. However, all of the Publix grocery stores that I've been to have had at least some form of gluten free section, if you'll have access to cooking facilities. If you have a car, as the last poster suggested, Pizza Fusion in North Miami is good, and it's right next to a Publix grocery store. Also in North Miami/Aventura is a P.F. Chang's and a Houston's, both of which can accommodate celiacs. Also, if you'll be staying there a while, there's a Whole Foods just north of the Aventura mall (about 30-40 minutes from South Beach depending on traffic). Also, in Miami Shores (which is north of South Beach), there is a great little restaurant called the Village Cafe--you may want to call ahead to see if they can still accommodate celiacs, but when I was living in Miami Shores, I used to go there all the time for lunch and dinner, and they seemed very knowledgeable about gluten-free issues, and I never got sick eating there.

I heard that "Pasha's" in Miami beach has a gluten-free menu. Other than that I was told the usual- ask the waiter, speak to the chef, steak houses are usually a good option, etc... If I come across more information I will keep you posted.

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      I am on day 13 of eating gluten  and have decided to have the celiac panel done tomorrow instead of Wed. (and instead of extending it a few more weeks) because I am SO incredibly sick. I have almost no appetite and am not able to consume the required daily intake of calcium to try to keep up with the loss of calcium from the high parathyroid hormone and/or the renal calcium leak.    I have spent the past 15 years working hard to improve my health. I lost 50lbs, got off handfuls of medications, lowered my cholesterol to enviable levels, and in spite of having end stage osteoarthritis in both knees, with a good diet and keeping active I have NO pain in those joints- til now.  Almost all of my joints hurt now I feel like someone has repeatedly punched me all over my torso- even my ribs hurt- I have nausea, gas, bloating, headache, mood swings, irritability, horrid flatulence (afraid to leave the house or be in any enclosed spaces with other people- the smell would knock them off their feet) I was so sure that I wanted a firm diagnosis but now- I'm asking myself is THIS worth it? esp over the past 2 yrs I have been feeling better and better the more I adjusted my diet to exclude highly refined grains and processed foods. I didn't purposely avoid gluten, but it just happened that not eating gluten has made me feel better.   I don't know what I would have to gain by getting a definitive diagnosis. I think possibly the only advantage to a DX would be that I could insist on gluten-free foods in settings where I am unable to have access to foods of my choice (hospital, rehab, nursing home)  and maybe having a medical reason to see a dietician?   please let me know if it's reasonable to just go back to the way I was eating.  Actually I do plan to buy certified gluten-free oats as that is the only grain I consume (and really like) so there will be some minor tweaks I hope and pray that I heal quickly from any possible damage that may have been done from 13 days of eating gluten.

      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?
