Good Evening Everyone,

My name is Melissa and this is my first time posting on this site. I have had Celiac's Disease for about 5 years now and I am always looking for new restaurants and foods to try, I'm sure like most of you do as well. I went to an Uno's Restaurant in Dedham, MA. a few months ago I decided to try the Gluten-Free vegetable pizza there and it was very tasty, but after a slice or two I started to feel really sick and queasy. I knew my symptoms automatically and realized that it was not Gluten-Free after all or someone had not followed proper care in preparing the pizza. Either way I let the manager know what happened and he apologized for it, but I will not be trying anything gluten-free from there again after that experience. has anyone else had this problem at an Uno's Restaurant before or any other supposed Gluten-Free pizza place???

Thanks,

Melissa

Uno's has been one of the few places I can eat without a problem. It's been a while since I tried their gluten-free pizza but I thought they only had pepperoni and cheese as gluten-free options. Was the pizza on a very thin crust or was it a thick crust? The gluten-free pizza is very thin.

Hi Manna,

Yes I had made sure to ask for the gluten-free pizza and it was on a thin crust. That's why I couldn't understand how I got sick unless it was not prepared properly...

The gluten free pizza is only pepperoni or cheese, like GlutenFreeManna said. Maybe, since you ordered the veggies, they just assumed it would be okay? They are not listed as a gluten free option at my Uno's. I have eaten the pepperoni pizza and didn't get sick, though I wasn't a huge fan of the taste.

We have Naked Pizza here (Cincinnati) and it's fantastic and all their toppings are gluten free. But I don't know if they have any other locations.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience! I"m fairly new to eating gluten free but I've eaten off Unos gluten-free menu a few times and have never had a problem. (but i've never had the gluten-free pizza). The management at my local Unos (upstate NY) takes care in explaining preparation procedures including preparing the food separately, wraping it separate (if it's to-go) and even having a separate server bring out a gluten free order (so it will not accidentally touch another plate). I was happy to see that some of my "old favorites" (like the baked stuffed chicken) are on their gluten-free menu.

Like I said, I've been happy with this particular restaurant but I can't speak for all of them.

I recently ate at an UNO's, but just decided to order the cob salad and felt fine afterward. I did notice that there was a veggie gluten-free pizza option on the menu too. (I live in the DC area.)

It's just so easy to get CC in restaurants, it always makes me nervous to eat out anymore unless I know they have dedicated a separate part of their kitchen for gluten free cooking/meal prep.

I had the gluten-free veggie pizza at Union Station in Wash, DC a few months ago and had no reaction. Then, last week, I had the same thing in Denver and had a minor reaction. My reactions are nerve related - I call it buzzing. The pizza may have been fine but I might have gotten contamitated off the table top or my soda glass.

      Ichthus is the Greek word (using English letters) for fish. The letters in the actual Greek word form an acronym that come from the first letters in the Greek words for "Jesus", "God's Son," "Savior".   Now, back to your family's denial of your celiac disease, I think you can relate to this:

      Anyone Else Experiencing These Symptoms?

      By Mantooth · Posted

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊
