Looking for any tips on good gluten safe resturants.

Check out this post I made, detailing experiences I had in mainly non-chain restaurants. In-N-Out Burger and Burger King (and other chains with which you might be familiar) are of course also options. Please let me know if you have questions about any of the stuff from that post, but hopefully that will be helpful to you.

Thank you very much. I'm going to In-N-Out Burger for sure I ate there before I found out tha I had celical's and loved there burgers. I'm not staying on the strip but if I go down there I will take some of your suggestions with me. I'm Staying at the Aliante Station so I hope it goes over well. I looked at some of there resturants and they seemed to be some what safe.

This was only my first trip to Vegas and my first vacation with Celiac, so we stayed on the strip and did the big, tourist-friendly hotels. I found those the easiest to deal with because their whole motto is customer service. I personally find it easiest to eat at big, fancy restaurants or fast food chains. Some family restaurants are great because they want loyalty, too.

Craftsteak and Wolfgang Puck's restaurants at the MGM Grand were wonderful. At Craftsteak they had the spring tasting menu (we were there in spring 2010)the chef made virtually the whole menu gluten free so my daughter and the rest of us were able to enjoy a family style meal. It was expensive, but well worth it and absolutely delicious.

I need to admit two things before I elaborate more:

1) I am not a buffet fan

2) I am not a dessert fan (I usually have fresh fruit, cheese and chocolate instead)

But, I was staying at the Bellagio on business mid last year and a group of us voted to go to the Bellagio all-you-can-eat buffet for lunch. It seems like it was $14-$19 or so... I don't really remember.

But, they had SO many gluten-free salads on the bar and tons of meat and seafood selections without sauces (pork, prime rib, shrimp, crab, oysters, mussels, chicken, turkey).

Finally, they had a HUGE dessert section with a number of desserts that were labeled gluten free. It probably was one of THE nicest array of food that I have ever seen in a buffet.

The second recommendation that doesn't ever even hit the radar is "Bally's" on the strip. Check out their weekend brunches as well. Top notch.

Good luck (literally and figuratively)

      Your high lactulose test, indicating out of control Small Itenstinal Bacterial O,vergrowth is one symptom.  You likely have low vitamin D, another symptom.  Unless you get lots of sun.   Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption, often leading to subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  A lot of people have these symptoms just before an acute phase of Celiac Disease.  Each of the symptoms can have multiple causes that are not celiac disease,  but when you start having multiple symptoms,  and each symptom is treated as a separate disease,  you have to think, maybe these are all one cause. celiac disease. There is a misconception that Celiac Disease is  a gastrointestinal disease and symptoms are only gastro related.  Wrong.  It is an autoimmune disease and has many symptoms that usually are disregarded.  I made that mistake until 63 y.o.  It can cause a dermatitis herpetiformis rash,  white spots on the brain.  It caused my alcoholism, arthritis, congested sineses, protein spots on my contacts lenses, swollen prostate, symptoms that are "part of aging". You may be tolerating gluten, the damage will happen. Of curiosity though, your age, sex, are you outside a lot without sunscreen?

      It would be interesting to see if you were tested again for blood antibodies after abandoning the gluten free diet for several weeks to a few months what the results would be. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not necessarily suggesting you do this but it is an option to think about. I guess I'm saying there is a question in my mind as to whether you actually ever had celiac disease. As I said above, the blood antibody testing can yield false positives. And it is also true that celiac-like symptoms can be produced by other medical conditions.

      Welcome to the forum, @numike! We sometimes get reports like yours from community members who believe their celiac disease has "gone away." We think there can sometimes be cases of remission but not long term healing and that continued consumption of gluten will eventually result in a relapse. This is the state of our knowledge at this point but there is still a lot we don't know and celiac disease continues to surprise us with new findings on a frequent basis. So, we would not advise you to abandon a strict gluten-free diet. Perhaps you can draw consolation from the fact that at the present time you seem to be able to consume gluten without consequences when in situations where you do not have the option to eat gluten-free. But I would advise you to not generalize your recent experience such that you throw caution to the wind. But I want to go back to what you said about being diagnosed by blood test in the early 2000's. Did you not also have that confirmed with an endoscopy and biopsy of the small bowel lining? Normally, a celiac disease diagnosis is not concluded based on a blood test alone because there can be false positives. What kind of doctor did this testing? Was it done in the U.S. or overseas? In the last few years, it has become common in the U.K. to grant a celiac diagnosis from blood testing alone if the antibody test scores are 10x normal or greater. But that practice has not caught on in the U.S. yet and was not in place internationally in the early 2000's. Do you have a record of the tests that were done, the scores and also the reference ranges for negative vs. positive for the tests?
