Udis, Udis, And More Udis

Three times we have eaten at an Udi's successfully. Twice at the location in Denver/Stapleton and once (tonight) at the Arvada location. I can't tell you how enjoyable this is. Delicious sandwich fare at Stapleton with fries!! Real french fries. I eat gluten and I ordered a gluten-free sammich just to see how it measures up. Honestly? I was worried that they messed up my daughter's sandwich (we ordered the same thing) because the bread was so tasty.

Tonight we went to Udis at the Arvada location. It's a lovely bistro-style place with pizza. No regular fries, just sweet potato fries, but an expansive gluten-free menu none-the-less. There are 4 (yes, I said 4) different types of gluten-free beer. One is Bard's Tale. There are two Green's varieties. The fourth is a micro-brew out of Boulder, CO that is gluten free. Plus, they have Strong Bow. There's a great patio that I have promised my daughter we'd go in the summer and sip on coffee and have warm cinnamon rolls. I can't wait!

Anyway--we're 3 for 3 at Udis with no glutening. They seem to really get it and the products are delish. Also, there's no add'l charge for gluten-free items, so that is a plus. The only down side is I think everything is slightly overpriced--about $9 for a sandwich entree, but the food is tasty and I think worth it.

If you are EVER in the Denver area, do yourself a favor and find an Udis.

This is so good to know! My daughter told me that Stapleton is just a stone's throw from where they live. Hopefully I'll be able to get to Denver this summer...but first I need to get to the point where I don't need to be three seconds away from a bathroom!!!

Do you have any other good recommendations for gluten free dining in Denver? How fortunate you are to live in a large city with so many options!

Sounds like a good vacation spot just for the food.

In the three years since my daughter's dx, there has been an explosion of options. There are several places we eat regularly including

Udi's (with several locations/variety to choose from)

Ling & Louies (real breaded and fried sweet and sour chicken that is gluten-free)

Noodles

Chili's (no longer on our faves list since they changed the bbq sauce)

Lone Star Steak House

Maggianos

There's more I just can't think of right now. I'd definitely say Denver is an increasingly gluten-free friendly city.

I forgot a couple:

Garlic Jim's (pizza in Highland's Ranch) and they DELIVER!

Beau Jos (locations around town)

Ahorsesoul - I've eaten my way through Denver before!!! tongue.gif

Thanks, buffetbride, I'll let me daughter know of the places you came up with. I'm sure there are a lot more that she hasn't tried yet...

I just tried a new place in Denver this weekend for gluten free crepes. They were delicious! We had two meal crepes and two desert crepes. Here is a link to their menu.

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling...

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

      The Happy Tart review

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my...

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
