Thank you for the information. It is 45 minutes from us, but plan on going this weekend. This is such a nice change from always doing PF Changs or Outback. Armetta :)

I tried this pizza out at their Scottsdale restaurant a few weeks ago... it is good, and it was really nice to go to a pizza place with friends and be able to eat something "safe."

Good points- It is a tasty rice crust... their toppings are great, and a non-gluten-free friend even had a couple of pieces. Waitstaff seemed pretty on the ball about the whole thing. It was good warmed up the next day as leftovers (it got a little crispier) so feel free to take some home to leave room for a gluten-free dessert (available at the restaurant) from the Aspire market. It is located across the parking lot, and is a super cool store/bakery that has everything gluten-free clearly labeled on their shelves (ie. anything gluten-free has a #5 listed on the tag, and dairy free is listed as D and so on... ). They're really nice and have a pretty wide selection of gluten-free stuff, a lot of which I've only ever seen mailorder before. I recommend a visit if you're ever in the area. (and no, I don't work there or anything, I just really appreciate places that put in this much effort.)

Other points- In my personal opinion (knowing that everyone has their own faves and dislikes, please take this with a grain of salt), this is a passable, if a little flat, and rather dense, rice crust that was not exactly what I'd had my hopes up for. Also, mine took a really long time to cook (my advice, order one of their yummy gluten-free appetizers to ease the wait) and then got soggy really quickly at the table.

Ah, well, at least things in the restaurant world are moving in the right direction! So hooray for picazzos for offering this service, and I'm sure I'll be back.

celiac3270 - THANK YOU! I just printed their gluten-free menu and showed it to my husband. We are going there this weekend! I am really excited to try eating out. I haven't really gone that route yet.

Jo Ann, which Outback do you go to? I'm nervous about taking my daughter and wanted to know if you've had success at the one by me (McKellips and gilbert roads)

I want to try the pizza place in Scottsdale even though it is farther away because i want to see the items available at the store across the street. I am so excited to try this. :)

Debbie,

I have not eaten at Outback since my gluten-free rebirth but I did speak to them right before I got my results. They seem great and their menu is just like their regular ones so you won't feel "different". I am going to go there this weekend too. I will let you know how it is. I go to the one on Clearview (near Superstition and Power).

They also have a Pacazzo's in Tempe but it is on the corner of Kyrene and Warner so that is pretty far south. I'm in southeast Mesa so it would be closer than Scottsdale for me.

Email me and let me know if you try either. Do you have celiac disease too or just your daughter?

Hi ladies I am also in Phoenix. The Outback on Power Rd. and US 60 in Mesa is good. Also, Chandler at the 101 and Chandler blvd. AND Ray Rd. and I-10. I eat at all of these and they're great. Also, Carrabba's Italian Grill at Ray and I-10 and Power and US 60 has a GREAT gluten-free menu. Outback and Carrabba's are owned by the same company.

Picazzo's is fabulous. I eat there every week. I work at Ray and Rural at Corona del Sol High School so it is RIGHT near my work. YUM!!!

Let me know if you need some advice on other places!

      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.

      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.

      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.

      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/
