Utah Restaurant Reviews:

The following are informal reviews of local Utah restaurants submitted by various individuals based on their personal dining experience.  The information provided has not been verified in any way by the Gluten Intolerance Groups of Utah.

Sage's Cafe (review submitted 6/11/06)

They have a gluten-free menu.  You can check their ingredients at www.sagescafe.com and click on their ingredients list. A GFA (Gluten-Free Alternative) is provided for most dishes.

_______________________

This restaurant is located in the Sheraton, downtwon Salt Lake City. They created a GF dinner menu for the GIG 2006 Conference. The manager said they decided not only to keep it, but to expand it. :-))

• Salt Lake City :  150 W 500 South; 801-401-2000 

_______________________

I emailed corporate Buca di Beppo and they sent this list of gluten free menu items on 10/18/05.  I have been to Buca di Beppo in Salt Lake City four times since then and have had no problems with contamination.  This restaurant is fun to go to with a big group, since you share big plates of food.  They call it 'family style.'  Just tell the server you request the chicken dishes listed to not be dusted with flour.

Texas Roadhouse (review submitted 01/07/2005)

• Taylorsville: 5418 S. 1900 W. (Right off I-215, Redwood Rd exit), (801) 955-7514

"I contacted the corporate headquarters for Texas Roadhouse and received a gluten-free eating guide from them. We have eaten at the Taylorsville location as well as in North Carolina while traveling. [We were] able to order off the menu. Both locations were accommodating and seemed to be knowledgeable about providing for [gluten-free] dietary needs. A word of caution would be to read the menu carefully as items such as naked buffalo wings are safe, but the blue cheese dressing normally served with it is not g-free."

Mazza, Middle Eastern Cuisine (review submitted 12/02/04)

• SLC:  1515 South 1500 East, (801) 484-9259

"I want to add a restaurant to the list of places where you can easily eat gluten free. The name of the restaurant is Mazza (mazzacafe.com). The owner Ali Sabbah has always served fresh tasty food. I've been a regular customer of his since he opened several years ago. When he found out about my celiac diagnosis he asked me what he could do to make changes in the menu and kitchen to make more items gluten-free. At my encouraging he has even added a gluten-free menu to his website. He recommends people download a copy and bring it into the restaurant. The food is wonderfully healthy, tasty comfort food made with love."

• Sandy:  1315 E 10600 S, (801) 619-4848

"My sister in law did a booth down at that food expo last weekend, she came across Sunfresh Market and Cafe.  They have a gluten-free menu.  She brought one home for me, looks great!  I can't wait to go there for lunch! (they close at 8 pm during the week and 6 pm on Saturdays, closed Sundays)  She said the lady has dealt with lots of Celiacs and is knowledgeable about the "safety"... a relative or something... I am definitely going to go there after looking over the menu."

East West Connection Restaurant (review submitted 11/8/03)

• Salt Lake City:  1400 Foothill Dr, (801) 581-1128

"We have found a delightful restaurant that is almost exclusively GF.  It is East West connection in Foothill Village.  The food seems to be an Asian hybrid of some sort.  It is wonderful and all of the servers that we have talked to seem very aware of problems with wheat.  Some of the spring rolls are made with tapioca flour.  As usual, though, check with the server."
