| A Gluten free friend is in town for business and I’m looking for a fun restaurant with a lot of great gf options. Thanks! |

| My brother and niece have celiac disease and he uses Find Me Gluten Free app and then calls to ask about their practices (ie separate fryer/prep area). Then makes the call based on that information and reviews. My niece is a real struggle so he has to be extra careful. It depends on your friend’s comfort level, and tolerance for cross contamination possibility. |

She doesn’t have Celiac and I have never heard her express concerns about cross contamination. She’s just had intestinal issues her whole life that went away when she went gf. So - any other recommendations for restaurants with a lot of gf options? Thanks! |

If she doesn't have Celiac, you can really go almost anywhere.
We trust the Jose Andres restaurants and have had luck with our kids not getting sick eating at Oyamel, Zaytinya, Jaleo which all have many GF options. But, if you're really not worried about cross contamination and just need some GF options on the menu, you are basically saying .. where should I have lunch? |

Yes. Highly recommend any Jose Andres restaurant. DS is allergic to nuts and we've eaten here lots of times without issue. They have allergy menus too. |
