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!

      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!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue. 
    • Scott Adams
      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
