New Gluten-free Restaurant Options In Kc

I just moved back to Kansas City from Florida and since I have celiac disease, I'm trying to familiarize myself with restaurants that have gluten-free menus or options. From being on this board before, I already know about Grand Street Cafe, Waldo Pizza and the chains (Chili's, Chipotle, Bonefish Grill, etc.) However, I got some information recently that I was new to me and I didn't find it on here, so I thought I would share.

First, there's a coffee house at 74th & Wornall called One More Cup that carries baked goods from Olivia's Oven:

There's also another pizza option--Spin Pizza. Just like Waldo Pizza, their gluten-free crust is from Olivia's Oven.

Not sure if you knew, but Pizza Fusion is now in the area as well, and they make their own gluten-free crust.

I also found out that Tanner's in Waldo carries Redbridge Beer, and so does The Fox and Hound on Metcalf.

Then there's Pei Wei. This is an Asian bistro that's owned by P.F. Chang's. The food is the same as P.F. Chang's but all dishes are under $10. They have a gluten-free menu as well. (I highly recommend the spicy chicken.)

Open Original Shared Link

That's all for now. I hope I helped somebody.

Also, if you aren't aware, Lulu's noodle house downtown has a celiac menu! So yuuuumy!

And godfather's pizza delivers a gluten-free pizza in 2 locations in KC.

I saw that Kona Grill on the plaza has gluten free options, as well as Eden Alley, First Watch, and Uno Chicago Grill. I didn't know about Spin! That makes me excited! Thanks!

810 Sports Zone in Overland Park/Plaze both are aware of Gluten and have several options.

Fortune Woks (Chinese) has a gluten free menu, I've heard rave reviews.

Jose Peppers (mexican) is very accomodating.

Tannah's (Overland Park)has gluten free options and the chef is aware of gluten issues.

I'm slow in replying, but I have to say that I think SPIN pizza is amazing. If you join their promotional program you can buy two pizzas and get one free every Monday. We ordered two gluten free pizzas and one regular with drinks and it was only about $30. I love Waldo, but it can get pricey.

I took the extra pizza home with the intention of freezing it but it was so good I ate it up. I hope all those in the Kansas City area have a chance to have this delicious pizza!!

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks!

      @JudyLou,  I have dermatitis herpetiformis, too!  And...big drum roll... Niacin improves dermatitis herpetiformis!   Niacin is very important to skin health and intestinal health.   You're correct.  dermatitis herpetiformis usually occurs on extensor muscles, but dermatitis herpetiformis is also pressure sensitive, so blisters can form where clothing puts pressure on the skin. Elastic waist bands, bulky seams on clothing, watch bands, hats.  Rolled up sleeves or my purse hanging on my arm would make me break out on the insides of my elbows.  I have had a blister on my finger where my pen rested as I write.  Foods high in Iodine can cause an outbreak and exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. You've been on the gluten free diet for a long time.  Our gluten free diet can be low in vitamins and minerals, especially if processed gluten free foods are consumed.  Those aren't fortified with vitamins like gluten containing products are.  Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, medicine, or vitamins? Niacin deficiency is connected to anemia.  Anemia can cause false negatives on tTg IgA tests.  A person can be on that borderline where symptoms wax and wane for years, surviving, but not thriving.  We have a higher metabolic need for more nutrients when we're sick or emotionally stressed which can deplete the small amount of vitamins we can store in our bodies and symptoms reappear.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards. The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.    Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.   However, another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.   I recommend getting checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  More than just Vitamin D and B12.  A gluten challenge would definitely be a stressor capable of precipitating further vitamin deficiencies and health consequences.   Best wishes!
