Hi all,

I'm about to go on vacation and was wondering if anyone had any good experiences with their gluten-free diet at restaurants in Las Vegas? I know there is a Whole Foods there where I can always get something but looking for ideas for anything unique, etc.

Thanks!

Kelli

Well I may have missed your trip by now but for your next visit. It all depends on where you are staying. If you are downtown one of my favorite italian restaurants is conveniently located. Its call Maggianos and its inside the fashion show mall. I have never had a problem there. I absolutely love their chicken parmesan and alfredo. They make all their sauces from scratch for you. The waiters are very knowledgable about eating gluten free. Sometimes they tell you they dont think they can do the chicken parmesean but i just tell them to ask the chef and he does it without a problem. PF Changs has a decent size gluten free menu and even has gluten free soy sauce and a chocolate desert! There are a few pizza places such as Sammy's Woodfire Pizza, Mark Richs, and a new one which is getting great reviews called the saucy tomato. There is a place that serves fish sticks, its called Lazy Joe's fish and chips. I havent tried it yet but once again great reviews. The local support group even held their meeting there. And if you get a sweet tooth there is a local bakery called Posh Cakes Bakery that has multiple options available. Finally, if you are craving some frozen yogurt, there is a place called U-Swirl. I used to work there. All the machines are labeled with the flavor and allergies. Most flavors are gluten free. When it comes to the toppings I would avoid most things except for the fruit because of cross contamination. It is all self serve so things tend to fall in the wrong buckets when people are topping their yogurt. I have also read that the mirage is very helpful. I think most MGM properties are. I know the food director at Excalibur has a son on a strict gluten free diet plus many other things. If you plan on eating at any hotels just contact the manager and they will be more than willing to help you.

Just back from 4 days in Vegas and we had a great time

We found the BEST Gluten Free pizza made from scratch at 'THE SAUCY TOMATO' restaurant, located at 3870 E. Flamingo Road

Don't be put off because it's located in a mini mall, the pizza is fantastic and at $10 for a 10 inch pizza, we had a Hawaiian with tomatoes, believe me, you will thank me for this.

Phil the owner is a great guy, he has a friend who was Celiac and decided to try to make them a better tasting pizza.

Phil is very friendly and the pizza tastes just like regular pizza dough, not like the cardboard attempts we are so used to

Please do yourself a favour and go check it out

We also ate at the MORE Buffet in the Luxor, just ask to speak to a chef and they will 'walk you through' what you can have (LOTS by the way) and what to stay away from

Also check out the OUTBACK Steakhouse 2 miles south of the strip towards the Las Vegas outlet mall...they have a gluten-free menu and we enjoyed a steak and lobster dinner which was really reasonably priced

All of the hotels we visited were pretty good when you advised them you were on a gluten free diet.

Don't let anyone hold you back from travelling and enjoying life...it only takes a few minutes to ask and in our experience, all of the chefs and servers we spoke to were only too happy to oblige

Celiac Disease is a Blessing, head up and you'll be amazed at how much better life is when you embrace it and 'pay it forward'

Good Luck & Bless you now, go and hit the slots ;-)

      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?
