I'll be visiting Cincinnati for 4 days and was wondering if anyone could recommend any restaurants/cafes/dining for gluten free options. Also any natural/specialty food stores. I look forward to hearing from you!

I don't live in Cincinnati but my parents do so I go there pretty often. There's a Whole Foods in Hyde Park and a company that makes delicious gluten free cheesecake and other cakes nearby. They are called Moondance bakery. There are chain restaurants like Maggiano's and PF Chang, of course. My mom (who Aldo has celiac disease) says she's had good luck eating at Joseph Beth Bookstore's cafe. They have a cook there who eats gluten free. That bookstore is in Hyde Park- near Whole Foods. If you don't live in an area with Wendy's, it's a fast-food restaurant with a pretty good amount of gluten free options. Their website has nutritional info. I hope that helps some. Have a good trip!

I second the need to visit Jungle Jims. It's a really cool store, but be sure to pick up a map to help you find everything. They have an extensive gluten free section, but there are lots of gluten free items in the international section as well. I was thrilled to find they carried a gluten free oyster sauce in the asian section the last time I visited.

Open Original Shared Link provides an overview of dining gluten-free in Cincy. For chains, I have been to the Bonefish, Maggianos, PF Changs, Unos, and First Watch in that area and they were all very educated in gluten free preparation. The only other place I have eaten in Cincy are Doc Greens and Encore both of which I really liked. You have to be into salads to like Doc Greens though.

I live in Cincinnati area and would like to hear more about Doc Greens. I've never been there but it looks very interesting. Are any of the meats gluten free?

I concur with all the restaurants listed. I always enjoy Cheeseburger in Paradise, PF Changs, and most of the Mexican Restaurants are good. I love the Tacos Rincon at Rincon Mexicano in the Eastgate area Open Original Shared Link

I am not ultra sensitive but have never had problems with their Rincon tacos or chips and salsa. There is also a Thai restaurant in Eastgate that has good Pad Thai... the steamed edemamme are excellent as an appetizer too. Montgomery Inn is another good choice.. I order ribs, saratoga chips or sweet potato, and a salad no croutons. I also eat at City Barbeque Open Original Shared Link quite often. All their sauces are gluten free. I order the pulled pork naked, fruit cup, greens, or salad. We have a lot of Chipotles and a fair number of Chick-fil-ets... I love their breakfasts.. I order fruit cup, hash browns, and sausage patty plain. I eat at Penn Stations regularly too... I order the club sandwich no bun on a bed of lettuce and a side of their awesome fresh cut fries. I also eat Skyline Chili's chili cheese fries. Hope that helps!!

Hello all!  Last night I went to Montgomery Inn - The Original based on the reviews from this site, and had a bad experience.  I took a team of 10 business members in and we sat down to order.  I asked the waiter about gluten free options, and he (loudly) snickered, "if you're gluten free, you're in the wrong place."  Luckily, I ordered the saratoga chips and salmon, so didn't get glutened by accident.

Not someplace that I'll be taking my business again.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
