Prior to being gluten-free, outback was my favorite restaurant. I frequent there at least once a week and cannot say enough about the wait staff and quality of the food at this Outback. Once I was diagnosed, you can imagine my excitement in learning that I wouldn't have to say goodbye to one of my favorite meals:
Victorias Fillet, broccoli, and a house salad.

Not only does Outback have an extensive separate menu that is gluten free, but the wait staff is typically very knowledgeable and understanding about the gluten-free lifestyle. When you consider the quality of the food for the price (gluten free, or otherwise), along with a kind crew of wait staff, there is no better place than Outback!

I should note, that prior to being gluten-free, I LOVED Bjs. They have wonderful mozzarella sticks and chicken paninis. However, for being a restaurant with a "gluten-free menu," it is definitely lacking. The menu is extremely limited and is an entire "allergen menu," not really separated from the gluten-free dishes. The main thing this restaurant has to offer is their gluten free pizza. This is definitely a plus, but overall I would say the pizza is only sub-par. For me, the taste is not all right, and therefore BJ's is a disappointment.
*Update: I got very sick at BJs and therefore can not recommend this restaurant to anyone. The kitchen is filled with flour since they do make and serve non-gf pizza.

Hands Down- Best Gluten Free Pizza in this town! It is a little pricey and the gluten free pizza only comes in the Individual Size (10" - 8 slices, $12 - $15). Even so, I LOVE IT! There are two sections to the restaurant, a lounge and the dining area which are divided basically into two separate rooms, keeping the noise level down. Lots of large tv's for sports fans along with gluten free beer. Their menu options for gluten-free go-ers are pretty minimal besides the pizza, but I think the ribs should be OK since they have sweet baby ray's BBQ sauce (I would double check with the manager first though). I almost forgot to mention my favorite part- the brownie sunday! They have a great nut-free, gf brownie that comes with vanilla ice cream. FABULOUS!
