We ate Carrabbas for the first time a few weeks ago. We are very sensitive to cross contact, and did not get sick. It was great food too! Our server was knowledgeable - which is always reassuring :) We will be back.

Still no gluten free pasta.  I don't understand the concept of Italian food restaurants with a gluten free menu that don't offer gluten-free pasta.  Its insane.  I like their Chicken Bryan entree, but with so many other gluten-free Italian options out there, I rarely frequent Carrabbas anymore.

Traveling is so much easier when chain restaurants have a gluten free menu!  If gluten free pasta isn't on par with "normal" standard for taste and texture- I don't want it.

 

They may not offer it because of the "gluten free trend" dieters- that are avoiding "white" foods like bread and pasta and order off the gluten free menu.  The chicken soup does not need any noodles, it is delicious.

I applaud Carrabbas!  They are adding some new exciting things to their menu.  And, regarding gluten free pastas in restaurants....well, even at home it's mediocre.  Why pay money for the same in a restaurant (ie. Olive Garden, yuck)  There are so many other new options at their restaurant.  It's nice to feel normal.  Thanks Carrabbas!

 

BTW - I have heard that if you bring in your own pasta, they will cook it for you, with all the safe guards.  That's pretty accommodating.

 

Thanks Karen for posting this.

We ate there again late last night (yes I know, Valentines day) But we went almost at close so they weren't busy. It was great food again and no cross contact. We had the caprese salad and the chicken trio (chicken marsala, chicken bryan, and rosa maria) and we shared it. We also shared the Johnny Rocco shrimp salad that is a main dish.  The staff was very accommodating.  When we went a few weeks ago, we went to a different one in Chandler, and they did a good job too. This one we went to last night is in Mesa AZ and it was just as good.

      Welcome to the forum, @JenFur! You must be relatively new to the celiac journey. I wish it were as simple as just having to cut out gluten and all our gut issues magically disappear. It is very common for those with celiac disease to develop intolerance/sensitivity to other foods. Often it is because the protein structure of some other foods resembles that of gluten. Sometimes it is because damage the damage done to the gut lining by celiac disease wipes out cells that produce enzymes needed to break down those foods. Sometimes it is because the "leaky gut syndrome" associated with celiac disease causes the immune system to incorrectly identify other food proteins as threats or invaders. The two most common non-gluten foods that cause trouble for a lot of celiacs are dairy and oats. But soy, eggs and corn are also on that list. Sometimes these non-gluten food intolerances disappear with time and the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel.

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?
