Last night I went to BJ's and ordered to Gluten free pizza and the gluten-free beer. It was fantastic! I got to feel bread full for the first time in weeks! and it tasted "right"! A manager is assigned to your meal when you order gluten free and they stand in the kitchen to watch the meal prep and ensure there is no cross contamination.

I didn't have a single moment of anxiety during my entire meal!

I HIGHLY recommend BJ's!!! Now, all they need to do is a gluten-free version of their pizoke and I'll be in heaven!!

Thanks for the tip. Where is this BJ's restaurant located? I've never heard of them. The only BJ's around here is BJ's Warehouse (sort of like a SAM's Club) which is why I opened this thread--I was hoping someone had found gluten-free pizza at BJ's. :)

I tried BJ's pizza last week. I was a bit worried since I am very sensitive to cross contamination. I was thrilled to be eating in a restaurant! It was only the second time in 4 years I had done so.

A manager did come to my table, and he explained how the food would would be prepared. BJ's was a restaurant I would go to before I was diagnosed, and I did enjoy it. It was great to be able to eat there again

The pizza was good. I knew I'd be taking home leftovers anyway, so I decided to order their huge (I mean really huge) baked potato. It was loaded with cheese, bacon, butter, sour cream, chives. The potato was fantastic! Between the pizza and potato, I had leftovers for two more meals.

I know they have quite a few BJ's in southern California, but I don't know their other locations. It feels so good knowing that I CAN eat out again.

I just discovered a few days ago that Romano's Macaroni Grill also has a gluten free menu. It surprised me to see gluten-free at an Italian restaurant. After my BJ's success, I got brave and ordered the shrimp portofino. Success again.

Maybe people really are understanding the need for gluten-free meals. Yay!

Do they have other gluten-free options besides pizza? Maybe I overlooked it, but I didn't see any on the website.

I was so thrilled to have pizza I didn't even check. :lol:

From their FAQ:

Our restaurants can provide information for guests who have food and allergen sensitivities or an intolerance to gluten. Please ask your server for a copy of our Food and Allergen Sensitivities Menu and Gluten Free Selections.

Thanks! I usually look for FAQ's but missed them just now.

@GlutenFreeMama- I went to the one in Escondido, CA.

BJ's has a gluten-free menu with all kinds of stuff... fish, steak, the baked potatos and the pizza. Took me three meals to polish off the pizza!

:D This is excellent news! Thank you for posting. I'll have to keep BJ's in mind, next time we want to go out for a meal. Very nice that they offer gluten-free beer, to go with the gluten-free pizza. Hope that trend catches on. I don't drink often, but pizza and beer, well, that's just a perfect combination!

I had the gluten-free pizza yesterday-oh, yum! My hubby and I shared that and each got a salad. He can eat dairy and I can't. So his half had cheese and my half was completely cheese free. I'm so happy to have another option. I asked the waiter if gluten-free pizza is ordered often...and he said they've had a lot of people come in lately for it.

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      I'm really confused. I've struggled with pain in right side of abdomen, head fog, nausea, acid reflix etc and have attended A&E on several occasions with no cause found (normal ultrasounds and CT). My GP ordered bloods. TTG was 87.4 so I was referred for endoscopy. Endoscopy was very traumatic but seemed worth it to have diagnosis confirmed. Results...

      Do Antibiotics in Babies Increase Celiac Disease Risk Later in Life? (+Video)

      A high C4c usually points to activation of the complement system, which is part of the immune response, but it is not specific to celiac disease by itself. It can sometimes be elevated with inflammation, infection, autoimmune activity, or other immune-system issues, so the meaning really depends on the full lab panel, symptoms, and why the test was ordered...

      Having issues with chips

      Do you have any issues when you eat corn? It seems unlikely that two different corn tortilla chips that are marked as gluten-free would contain gluten. Have you eaten either of these in the past without issues, or is this reaction just on a recent bag?

      Having issues with chips

      When I get gluten sick I get pain in my stomach, exhaustion, migraines/headaches, pain in my gums. The same is happening after I eat those chips. The Gluten Assist enzymes are giving me relief. They were what stopped the vomiting yesterday.

      Do Antibiotics in Babies Increase Celiac Disease Risk Later in Life? (+Video)

      A quick Internet search produced this result: "C4C refers to complement component 4, a protein in the blood that plays a role in the immune system. It is measured to assess immune function and can indicate various health conditions, including autoimmune diseases and infections." How old is your son? Has he been diagnosed with celiac disease, which...

My GP ordered bloods.  TTG was 87.4 so I was referred for endoscopy.  Endoscopy was very traumatic but seemed worth it to have diagnosis confirmed.  Results have returned saying everything looks normal (7 biopsies taken) but they have arranged a repeat endoscopy to look at other areas of the bowel.  I really dont think I can go through the wait and traumatic ordeal again.  Is it likely I'm coeliac or not.  I was expecting confirmation but have been left more confused than ever.

      It certainly is possible that you have other food allergies/sensitivities in addition to gluten. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common ones seem to be dairy, oats, soy, corn and eggs. How do you distinguish gluten-caused sickness from other causes of sickness? For you, does getting "gluten sick" really different than illness caused by other things?

      Is anyone having issues with Santitas tortilla chips? They say gluten free, but I got vomiting sick after eating them. I also got gluten sick from eating Siete's certified gluten free serrano sea salt and vinegar chips. Is this possible or am I allergic to something else? I have been taking Gluten Assist enzymes and it is helping a lot, so I really think it is gluten.
