Any Gluten-Free Friendly Restaurants In Hilton Head Sc?

Hi everyone!

We will be going on our Hilton Head summer trip soon, and I was wondering if anyone had any experiences with restaurants on Hilton Head Island? I'm interested in both the good and the bad so I know where to avoid and where might be a safe bet?

Last year I made my own food in our villa almost the entire time or went to real causal take out type places where I could bring my own food, but I know my husband would like to be about to go out like normal people once or twice. :lol: Also last year my son was not gluten free, and now he is, go finding reliable places is more important so he can have a few meals out. Any restaurant recommendations would be appreciated? We are in the north section of the island, but would travel further if the place is worth it.

Would also like to know. We are going to HHI in a few weeks, and I would love to know where I can shop and eat before I get there.

I know this is probably WAY too late to help you, but we just planned our trip, and when I emailed the condos we're staying at, this is the response I got. Hope it helps anyone looking!

From Michael Ramey, the Executive Chef at SeaPines Resort: "We offer gluten free options at 2 of our restaurants during dinner, the Harbourtown grill (843) 363-8380, & Topside at the Quarterdeck (843) 671-2222. At both restaurants we offer all of our pasta dishes with the option of a gluten free pasta, & we have gluten free bread service at both locations. We also offer gluten free pancakes during breakfast at the Harbourtown grill, & we can modify any existing menu item at any of our locations to fulfill your dietary needs."

Sounds good to me :)

I'm in Hilton Head this week and had a great meal at the Sage Room (Open Original Shared Link ) last night, they had a gluten free menu and would let you substitute any protein with any of three sauces and preparations. Also had a good experience at Wise Guys (Open Original Shared Link), a tapas place with a long list of gluten free items.

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
