Hilton Head Island Restaurants

Our family will be traveling to Hilton Head next month. First time since being diagnosed with Celiac. Any suggestions on where to get a good (and safe) gluten free meal? I know that most of the upscale restaurants will accomodate, but we will be traveling with our 17 yr. old son who does not care for, or appreciate fine dining; so any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I know that Wise Guys has a Gluten Free menu, but they're the only one I've found so far, other than the chain restaurants that I can eat at here at home. I love fresh seafood, etc. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've been going to HH since I was a little kid. Actually haven't been back since being diagnosed but some relatives took the trip and I had them do some investigating at some of our favorite places. Because HH caters to TONS of family tourists during the summer, many, many restaurants are gluten aware. You are right in that most of the nicer places will accomodate. Some of the more "chain" type restaurants may be harder. One Hot Mamma's has a gluten-free menu. (Brand new menu so its not on their website yet.) Its a great BBQ place. Wise Guys is another one with a gluten-free menu (lots of nuts, however, if there is a a nut allergy in the family). Mellow Mushroom also has gluten-free pizza that is supposed to be amazing. I still remember having their gluten filled pizza and it was great if this is an indication of anything. If you check out the gluten free registry for HH, this will be very helpful. There is also a Fresh Market which is like a Whole Foods that sells lots of gluten-free food. Kroger also has a good selection. Have fun!

There is an Outback with a gluten-free menu at 20 Hatton Place, several fast food restaurants (Arby's, Wendy's, Burger King, Chick-Fil-A) which have gluten-free menus, a Bonefish Grill - GFRAP certified - at 890 William Hilton Pkwy, a Longhorn Steakhouse with a gluten-free menu at 841 William Hilton Pkwy, a Carrabba's with a gluten-free menu at 14 Folly Field Rd, and a Cold Stone Creamery for dessert which has a gluten-free list at 890 William Hilton Pkwy. Hope that helps. Good luck!

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?
    • Fayeb23
      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…
