Any Experience With Toot's Restaurant?

We're traveling to Kentucky later in the week for a competition for my son. Toot's restuarant is a favorite of the team - they have been in previous years. From the website, Toot's is a regional chain, only a 4 or 5 restaurants in Kentucky in Tennessee. I am going to call the Bowling Green location, to see if I can talk to someone, but was wondering if anyone had any personal experience.

I appreciate your help!

I haven't eaten at Toot's since diagnosis and I've only eaten at the one in Murfreesboro. My feeling is that it is more a bar that serves food than the other way around. It is bar food and a bar atmosphere. Now, it may be different in other places as Murfreesboro is a college town. I would say it would be difficult to just walk in and eat. Good grief they fry their pickles!!

Hope that helps a little!

I just ate there today. The waitress said everything is fried separately in its own oil. Was going to try the French fries but they are curly fries very similar to Hardies and I know Hardee's curly fries aren't gluten free, so I didn't. I really, really wanted fries, too!  The ribs and new potatoes are wonderful, though!!

      Yes stress can .make the pain worse. That being said it is taking years for my body to heal. I am not able to eat out as 98 % of restaurants do not know how to cook for celiacs.  I only eat out on special occasions. Any time I eat gluten I feel there is a tourch going through my digestive system specifically in the area you have mentioned.  Like where the deudenal is . I am very sensitive to cross contamination so any small amount of gluten makes me sick.

      @Ems10, celiac diagnosis normally involves two steps. The first one is serum antibody testing which you may have already have had done and are waiting on the results. The second step involves and endoscopy (aka, gastroscopy) with biopsy of the small bowel lining. This second step is typically ordered if one or more antibody tests were positive, is a confirmation of the serum antibody testing and is considered the gold standard diagnostic test for celiac disease. Now hear this, you should not be eating gluten free weeks or months in advance of either kind of testing. Prematurely going on a gluten free diet can and will sabotage the results of the endoscopy/biopsy should you get a referral to a GI doc who would want to do that. Eliminating gluten from the diet causes causes inflammation to subside which allows the small bowel ling to heal such that the damage they would be looking for is no longer there.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      It might make sense for you to find out if they've run a celiac disease test on you, and if not, consider planning for it.

      Thanks for your reply! I’m really not too sure, the doctor just took a few tubes of blood & that’s all I know 🥹
