Excellent Meal And Service At Chevy's

Last Saturday, I went with my family to Chevy's in Princeton. I googled it before we went to see if they had a gluten-free menu and low and behold, they did! You can find it here >> Open Original Shared Link

Sometimes service at our Chevy's can be spotty and slow, and while I wouldn't call the service this time around speedy, it was very attentive to my gluten free needs. We asked the waitress for a gluten-free menu and she said Chevy's didn't have one, but she could bring the manager out to talk to me and she would oversee the meal. The waitress reappeared a few minutes later and said the manager was actually printing off the gluten-free menu and would come over to talk me through it, which she did.

My order--crispy chicken tacos--was highlighted on the order as being gluten free. The manager and the waitress double-checked it before it was brought to the table. And it was scrumptious! Better yet, it didn't make me sick.

I hope this wasn't a fluke. I was a little surprised by how great everything was, but I will certainly be making a return visit.

I envy you. I went to the Chevy's on Times Square and violently ill. :( Hopefully mine was the exception to the rule.

I guess you got lucky. The Chevy's here was just nasty. It's closed now. I've eaten at two other ones in CA and never once got anything that tasted good.

HaHa :blink: I looked at the Chevy's gluten free menu and there was zero,nothing, nada I could eat :blink: I have the same trouble at PF Changs, Pei Wei, and on and on ad nauseum. However, I did order a lovely lunch out the other day of roast pumpkin and goat cheese risotto :) No ethnic restaurants for this gal. :P

Well, well....this is an improvement! Chevy's is the only restaurant that has ever invited me "to eat elsewhere." Yes, they suggested that I leave because they felt they couldn't accommodate my gluten-free diet. I actually cried....I felt so devalued. I've never set foot in another Chevy's since then.

However, I'll check out the menu and see what's what. Thanks for posting this information. It's good to see that inroads are being made with this very intolerant restaurant chain.

Some Chevys seem to be owned by different people. I have heard there are some in Missouri that have a gluten-free menu but it wasn' t companywide.

The above link is for the ones in Missouri. They have a separate owner or franchisee. You can't expect every Chevy's to honor that if it's not a corporate wide policy. Some may choose for legal, cost or other reasons not to honor the Missouri menu.

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
