A taco and burrito chain restaurant that uses fresh ingredients, takes time to prepare them just so, and then quickly combines these ingredients to the specifications of each customer. Though they do not have a gluten-free menu, numerous items are safe for celiacs. Best bets are the burrito bol, fajita bol, and crispy corn tacos. Choices of meats include carnitas, barbacoa, chicken, and steak. Other safe selections are the fajita vegetables, cilantro-lime rice, black beans, pinto beans, and all four salsas. Be cautious about the chopped lettuce and shredded cheese only because servers use their hands to scoop these items, and the same server could have handled the flour tortillas. In general, Chipotle gets high marks from the celiac list. more

A creative stir-fry dining experience. Diners line up to help themselves to the more than 50 items on the food bar, and then watch as the mixture is stir-fried on a giant grill. A gluten-free menu board helps you know which items and sauces are gluten free, yet you still must take a few precautions. Always ask that a bowl of white rice, brown rice, or rice noodles be brought out from the kitchen for you because there is too much risk of cross-contamination at the food bar. Also, be careful of food items that are placed near gluten containing items. Finally, make sure your meal is cooked in a clean wok rather than on the communal grill. The food is great! more

Outback has a gluten-free menu in PDF format but always discuss your order with your server, and ask to speak with the manager if necessary. Make sure to save room for the decadent Chocolate Thunder from Down Under dessert. more

Every dish here is made to order; each a pleasing blend of owner Han Olmstead's native Korean cuisine with Chinese and Asian-Californian influences. Healthy and low-fat dishes are at the core of Han's cooking, and she is very adept at also making them gluten free. None of the meats are pre-marinated, a bottle of Tamari Wheat-Free Soy Sauce is a mainstay of the kitchen, and white rice, brown rice, and rice noodles are in abundance. more

Pei Wei is an informal Asian-style restaurant created by P.F. Chang's China Bistro. The gluten-free menu must be requested at the counter where you place your order. It consists of Vietnamese Chicken Salad Rolls, Asian Chopped Chicken Salad, Pei Wei Spicy Chicken Salad (can also be made with shrimp or scallops), Pei Wei Spicy (chicken, shrimp, or scallops), and Pei Wei Sweet and Sour (chicken, shrimp, or scallops). Specifics about how to order each dish gluten free is stated on the menu; be sure to convey this information to the person taking the order so it can be keyed in correctly. Pei Wei Spicy omits the vegetables from the gluten-free version because they get cross contaminated with cooking liquid from regular noodles. Speak with the manager about having vegetables cooked in fresh water instead. more

A challenging, but not impossible, place to eat gluten free. The first order of business is to alert the manager and chef to your needs. If the restaurant is not too busy they can customize a meal for you. When possible, call ahead to request that a serving of non-marinated veal, pork, steak, or seafood be set-aside for you, and add steamed veggies and a salad for a full meal. more
