Outback Steakhouse & Carabbas Italian


Tem

Recommended Posts

Tem Newbie

I'm new to this site, but i was told about it by a co-worker who also has sprue. -- I recently went to Outback Steakhouse for my birthday. I was so pleased to hear that they have a gluten-free menu, and were very willing to

accomodate my needs. They are apparently affiliated with another chain called Carabbas Italian Grill, which also has a gluten-free menu. Just request the menu from the hostess. Outback actually has a couple of gluten-free desserts, like the chocolate thunder from down under. This was a great treat for my birthday. -- Does anyone know of

any other chains that offer this type of menu? PS- I plan to try Carabbas soon.

These are the only places I have been where I've been able to order from a gluten-free menu. Both places were great! No glutening! I have had good experiences at red robin's, but I've also had bad ones :P I usually order the cob salad no bread, no bleu cheese (and will send it back if I see either, b/c I have gotten ill from it before).

I know PF Changs is supposed to be good, I haven't been there myself though.

I recently discovered that Chick-Fil-A cooks their fries in a seperate fryer...I asked them :) I just don't know what else to eat when I order them...

Don't know if you have Wingers around you (I think maybe it's just in Utah...don't know) but they are supposed to be working w/ GIG on a gluten-free menu....

That's all I know :D

Good luck!

Hi Sweetfudge,

Thanks for the tip about PF Changs, i think there's one in Manhattan. We don't have Red Robin or

Wingers or Chick-fil-a. --By the way, Happy Birthday. (We actually have the same b-day).

There are no PF Chang's in Manhattan but there are 2 Outbacks. One in Chelsea and the other in Midtown.

There are tons of great restaurants in the city however that cater to gluten free. My favorites are Risotteria (gluten-free pizza!!!!), Lumi and Bistango.

Check out these websites.

Cheeseburger in Paradise is also part of that chain. I went there last Friday, and the manager had just come back from a seminar on celiac/gluten free! He said they use clean pots, pans, and utensils when someone orders gluten-free. They take it very seriously. This is a good reason to ask for the gluten-free menu EACH VISIT rather than just remembering what you like and ordering it. When you order gluten-free, they do prepare it differentl and taking precautions.

I love Bistango...My girlfriend lives in the neighborhood so whenever I visit we just walk over there. It's great and they are so friendly and accommodating! Risotteria is great too! I have to try Lumi...I was hesitant since no one on here has mentioned it but since you did its on my list - thanks!!

Bone Fish Grill is also in the Outback Family. They have a shrimp app that is really great. They have a gluten-free menu that is pretty good.

Oh, and if you can eat dairy, their creme brulee is outstanding!

      You are most welcome, Marie.  Thank you for getting in touch, because this sort of post will be seen by other parents who find themselves in this position, I am sure there are many.   And as I say, in the long run, I am sure your daughter will be sorry for what she said.  I remember having a go at my dear Mum when I was in my twenties about something and then apologising, saying, "I don't know how you put up with me."  I can't remember her exact words but it was something along the lines of, "I used to say things like to my Mum.  Now it's my turn [to be on the receiving end]!"    😂  Although it isn't very nice to be on the receiving end, it is good your daughter feels safe to say these things to you. We look forward to hearing from you again in due course.

      Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results? Some people test negative but have a positive biopsy, others test positive but negative biopsy.  This is why it can take years and misdiagnosis of other diseases that Celiac Disease can mimic. The above link is a good read with real life examples. Something I find interesting is that in 1980 or so a new diagnosis was created, Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, only 10 years after Norman Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize for creating our modern wheat and the Green Revolution.

      @Steve-n-Portland, there is a difference in the requirements to use the label "Gluten Free" and the label "Certified Gluten Free". "Gluten Free" is governed by FDA regulations and has a ceiling of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is a labeling convention used by the GFCO, an independent international third party certifying group that uses 10 ppm as its standard.

      We have had numerous reports from forum participants experiencing gluten reactions from Trader Joe "gluten-free" products. It seems it's not a good place for the celiac/gluten sensitive community to shop.
    • Steve-n-Portland
      Also, a class action lawsuit was launched in 2024 against Trader Joe's re: their " gluten free" everything bagels. They tested at 269ppm. (Personally, I am not sure they will win. The FDA says that the *ingredients* have to be less than 20ppm for a company to label something "gluten-free."  In order to be certified as gluten-free by the GFCO, the *final product* needs to be less than 20ppm. That said, the lawsuit is arguing that most people read that label and assume the final product is safe for people with celiac. Thus, many people were made sick. And being sick can have costly consequences in regard to work or school, depending when one becomes ill.)
