Gluten Free Restaurants
So my girlfriend is a celiac (which means she cant eat gluten) and wondering if CP knows any places that are not necessarily gluten free, but good about doing it. We've been to Sorantinos which does gluten free pasta and its awesome, but would like to find some place new. We dont go to Earls anymore because they basically told us that they wouldnt clean their grill for her to eat because they were to busy so i told them where to go and we left. But ya help would be awesome!

I have seen signs at Primal Grounds that they offer Gluten Free choices, although it is a cafe I have heard they have really tasty food:
http://www.primalgrounds.com/menu.htm
At the bottom it has gluten free choices. Good luck!

My wife is celiac and we've eaten at Tasty Menu. It's on 17th Avenue SE, I don't remember the actual address, but the area isn't exactly the ritziest....
Tasty Menu is great - I take the wife there whenever she gets a hankering for pizza - They make a thin crust pizza, which I think is excellent - the crust doesn't taste like chalk... Also, they make some pretty good desserts - I had the chocolate cake one time, and I really couldn't tell that the cake was gluten free. Plus the prices aren't that expensive, so you could have a pretty good meal for two for under $30.
They have a website:

Also forgot to add that Chianti's has Gluten free options as well.
Oh, and Bolero's is safe for celiac's too. A bit pricey, but great food. Make sure you bring your eatin' pants though...

Vietnamese restaurants always are a good cheap option. I can't have wheat (but I can have gluten) and I go there a lot... All rice all the time...

Hmm. My wife never said anything, but then again, she doesn't really have high expectations for gluten-free food anyways.

Swiss Chalet chicken and fries is Gluten free. Joey's on Barlow and 32nd has a gluten free menu.
Even the batter at Joey's only Seafood is gluten free. They use a rice batter for their fish, so go nuts order all you want. 
I too suffer miserably from this intolerance / allergy.

Matty, depending on your fast food tolerance, sometimes my wife gets a craving for fries - So I can take her to Wendy's, Mcdonald's, or whatever - we just have to make sure that the fries were cooked in a separate oil vat than other breaded fatty foods.... mmmm... grease....

Only those thin angel hair pastas. I buy the brown rice pasta for myself. A lot healthier then the regular rice pasta. You boil that stuff.

Ya i know....actually apparrently (according to my gf) Macdonald's is the only one guaranteed to cook their fries in seperate oil than the chicken fingers, nuggets etc.

What have you got against Gluten? You're just an Anti-Glutite. One day, they'll build camps to hold your kind. Camps with cages. Cages and ovens. Ovens to bake Gluten into everything and force you and your kind to eat it!
WTF is Gluten anyway? Sounds like ass juice.

I'm not sure this was completely sarcastic or not so Ill just say it. This isnt a choice my gf made. She has celiac disease which basically means if she continues to eat gluten she wont be able to absorb nutrients and eventually die of malnutrition.

I'm sure Locke was just joking.
My dad is a recently diagnosed celiac, and when looking around for a restaurant in which to get him a gift certificate, I was surprised with how many offered gluten free foods. I'm sure you've done it, but it can't hurt to call any place that you want to eat at, and ask them if they offer a gluten free menu.
Some food for thought (no pun intended), apparently something like 1 in every 100 some of us will have celiac disease, but only 1 in 3000 or so people know thy have it.
