The Best Restaurant Chains For Gluten-Free Eaters
BY Yvette Johnstone
True Food Kitchen
Every dish at True Food Kitchen is either already gluten-free or designed to be easily made gluten-free. The ingredients are also of the highest quality.
It serves comfort dishes that are difficult to find gluten-free in most other places. Words like grass-fed, organic, wild-caught, seed-oil-free, and keto are common on the menu.
P.F. Chang's
It can seem impossible to follow a gluten-free diet at an Asian restaurant, but P.F. Chang's has an extensive gluten-free menu with a lot of its signature dishes.
Seven unique main dishes feature both animal and plant-based protein alongside rice or noodles. You can even finish your meal with a chocolate souffle with vanilla ice cream.
Outback Steakhouse
The seasonings used for steaks and seafood are often made with gluten-containing ingredients, but Outback Steakhouse ensures there's a gluten-free option.
It has a separate gluten-friendly menu that offers multiple cuts of steak and seafood as well as other popular side dishes. It's been serving gluten-free options for over a decade.
BJ's Brewhouse
BJ's Brewhouse is famous for its pizookie — a cookie baked into a skillet, topped with ice cream, and served warm — which is also available in a gluten-free option.
It has an entire menu of gluten-sensitive appetizers and main dishes, including favorites like the spinach and artichoke dip and loaded burgers served on gluten-free buns.
Nobu
It's often difficult to find a sushi restaurant that has substitutions for wheat-based soy sauce, but Nobu solves this by offering gluten-free tamari upon request.
While Nobu doesn't have a separate gluten-free menu, diners have stated that the chefs are more than happy to work with any food allergies to create a memorable experience.
