Hi all!

I'm in my mid 20's and will be finally going to Vegas! I'm really concerned about where to eat that's not going to cost me an arm and a leg. Anyone know of any good places that cater to gluten allergies?? I also have an egg allergy so sometimes that makes it even harder. Thanks so much for any feedback!!!

Hi there,

Someone actually posted about their Las Vegas Trip back in Nov this year which might be helpful. The subject was Las Vegas Experience.

Have fun!!

Go to the more upscale buffets especially for lunch (cheaper than dinner per person). I'm not sure if you're a seafood lover or carnivore, but us Celiacs can THRIVE at these! Tons of salad bar items, roast beef, roasted pork, seafood, turkey breast, chicken breast, etc. Just watch out for the sides.

And, many of the signs on the buffet will clearly spell out vegetarian and gluten-free options. Same in the dessert section, but I have found their fresh fruit to be very ripe and tasty as well.

Bellagio is worth the trip for lunch.

I have to go to Las Vegas quite frequently for business (about 4 times a year). I have stayed at several different hotels from the main strip to the old strip. I have never had a bad experience. All of the resturants are pretty well versed in food "allergies" and gluten free. I find reaturants to be a bit easier than buffets. Don't hesitate to ask if they have Gluten free and egg free options. All resturants that I have eaten at that did not have a gluten free menu or options were more than willing to ask the chef to make anything I want to order. Examples: at small cafe in Flamingo made me a naked (sans bun)surloin burger with mushrooms and cheese with tomato, lettuce and onions on side (like a salad) and any sauce or dressing I wanted on the side at no extra charge. Mexican resturant at New York, New York double checked everything and helped me walk through the menu for tacos and enchiladas. Italian resturant at Rio made me a gluten-free eggplant "parmigana" made with rice and potato flour.

Best meal I ever had in Vegas was at Emeril's at MGM. Chef came to our table of 14 and took my order personally, ribeye, garlic potatoes and seasoned steamed veggies and then made me a special dessert of a gluten-free brownie and lavender ice cream (to die for}.

For gluten-free in Vegas it's easy, just speak up. They are very well versed in helping all types of diet issues.

BTW, I'm going to LV May 18-21 for the Hospitality Design Show.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
