GLUTEN FREE IN WISCONSIN and BEYOND!
NOTE: this page needs an update as I make a return to tending to my blog, please bear with me and do your due diligence to vet places… especially now with so many changes frequently, be sure to call ahead to make sure the places are even still open and if they still offer safe options.
Adding my GF in MKE & Beyond Google map for more ideas/locations.
Remember to ask questions and be an advocate for yourself for a safe meal! If something is fried, be sure they have a separate GF fryer. Is the kitchen knowledgeable? Stress and then stress again if you are a severely sensitive celiac like me, because GF has become so popular, there are many restaurants who say they have a GF menu, but aren’t prepared to serve those with serious, severe dietary needs. This list is a compilation of places I have personally been and places recommended by local GF friends — menus, staff, chefs all change over all the time, and as hard as I work to keep it current, ALWAYS ask questions, every single time!

GF BONUS POINTS: “Everything on our menu is gluten-free or can be made gluten-free easily by switching out buns, taking off croutons, avoiding the caesar dressing which is not gluten-free and we don’t make in house, avoiding tomato soup for the same reason. All of our sauces other than the caesar and balsamic vinaigrette are made in house including the ketchup, mustard, mayo. Our beer batter is 100% gluten-free using Lakefront New Grist beer meaning that our homemade pull apart cheese curds, chicken tenders and jalapeno poppers are very popular with the gluten-free community! Fish fry is gluten-free just please tell your server or bartender you are gluten-free so they can ring the food in properly and someone won’t accidentally throw a piece of rye bread on top, contaminating the meal. Our kitchen does have gluten containing items (that are prepared and cooked separately) so we definitely have a disclaimer on the menu for that but our entire staff is careful and aware of the correct methods to not cross-contaminate!”
OIL USED FOR FRYING: Canola, but there are dishes that contain ALMOND flour that get fried in fryers, so for NUT allergy, take note! One fryer has duck fat just for fries. Fun fact: ALWAYS dedicated fryers!! “There’s not a single thing that gets fried in the entire restaurant during any service that is not gluten free.”

GF BONUS POINTS: “So much on both our brunch and dinner menus are offered as gluten free. Right now we are planning a Valentine’s 3 course dinner (all available GF) as well as a pop-up bakery for Valentine’s with GF dipped chocolate and other desserts.

Celiac in the City

If Racine is considered “surrounding areas” to MKE, Blue Bear must be included!
Yep! It’s on the google map link, added to list. 🙂
Just wanted to let you know that there is a completely gluten-free restaurant in Minneapolis called Sassy Spoon

If you’re every down in the Chicago suburbs, I’d love for you to visit the Gluten Free Co-Op Bakery I am now a part of. The bakery is Sweet Natalie’s (228 S. 3rd St. Lower Level, Geneva IL 60134). My brand is Rejuveneating and my products are gluten free as well as paleo, dairy free, egg free, naturally sweet, soy free, and some vegan options. You can check out all the products at http://www.rejuveneating.com/store. 🙂
Geneva is a beautifully charming town, enjoying a nutritious treat while strolling downtown is absolutely wonderful!
Screaming Tuna. I have had great experiences here…so far. A few weeks ago we went on Monday night because they have a half off sushi menu. It’s a special menu that doesn’t have the GF items in a special color. Anyway, I told my waitress I had celiac, she went through the options with me. I ended up order kani kame, which is fake crab. In the depths of my mind I might remember that this is often not gluten free, but in 5 years I have never had it and forgot. Anyway, we went back last week and I went to order the same thing and the waitress said it is definitely NOT gluten free. She was super apologetic. I talked to the owner the following day and he said they had all had a meeting about the episode. And they were in the process of making new special menus (for sunday and monday) and were going to use the same color coding system on them. I thought their prompt action to resolve the issue was really great. He even mentioned how Celiac in the City had written them up, and they work really hard not to have issues like this. Just thought I would make everyone aware!
Nicole
So glad to see this! Do you know of any gf fish fries?
Laurie — my go to place for all things fried is Grill Junkies in Oconomowoc, but they are moving to Delafield in May. We’re actually having our next GF Get Together there on 4/28, join us!
Simmer Cafe at 718 N. Water St. Is delicious and VERY Gluten-friendly. Husband and wife owners, Steve and Jennifer are so kind and helpful when I eat here. Jennifer has Celiac, so she is aware of how important GF menu choices are. She bakes the GF bread! They have the most delicious soups! Also great salads and Panini’s with GF bread (I have not tried because there is not dedicated panini maker for GF bread so they have recommended not taking a chance!). Give them a try, you can feel safe and will be so happy with their food. They also have a food truck in the summer!
Sadly Mia Famiglia in Hales Corners has closed 😦
They just moved locations
Tried Hotel Metro recently–had a great experience and was well-taken-care-of on the GF front. I used online reservations, let them know I was gluten free AND had a coupon. They were waiting for me and my hubby with a table set up, special menus ready, and no attitude, no issues with the LivingSocial deal. I will be going back there for sure. I had the salmon and my hubby had a bleu cheese crusted filet. They had a lovely dark choco/berry torte as well. SO delicious! I want to go back and try the full menu soon. I can’t get over how many restaurants serve GF and am still grateful for the exceptional experiences.
Ubeer Gastropub in St. Francis is wonderful for gluten free! We have eaten there multiple times without any problems. They have gluten free bread/bun options with no upcharge! The staff are super knowledgeable about all things gluten-free. It’s become our new favorite place.
This is so exciting! I’m in Bay View and always looking for good, safe places to eat nearby. Is the selection pretty good? I tried to view their website but it wasn’t working. Thanks for posting this!
I have to second and third Becky’s comment. Ubeer is the ONLY place I go for burger and fries gluten free. It irks me to be offered a “gluten free burger” for the same menu price WITH NO BUN OR BREAD! The burgers are fantastic, and there are multiple salads and entrees, including beer can pulled chicken…you can get a nice grilled chicken breast instead of the burger, if you want. They have good gluten free bread and a safe fryer for delicious, crispy fries. They always have at least a couple of special ciders on tap, too–like one with blue agave or a pumpkin-apple blend or one of the dry-hopped varieties I love. I’ve tried so many I’ve lost track. I get tired of the sweet-sweet ciders because I have to drink cider rather than beer and get easily over-sweetened, and I just can’t stomach Magner’s and Strongbow so much anymore. Ubeer’s manager actually gets it and orders for cider drinkers who don’t necessarily want a mouthful of sugar water. When they can get local, they do. The staff is wonderful and welcoming, and the regulars–among whom I include myself now–are lovely and learn your name. I look forward to going every week. Yep. EVERY week. You will be treated like family, and not a single server or bartender will curl their lip at your gluten free needs. It’s just too bad that it’s getting too late in the year for you to try the GF food AND sit on the patio, which looks out onto Lake Michigan just north of the condos in St. Francis. Your non-gf loves will enjoy it there, too, because of the great dishes and outstanding beer menu. I take ALL picky people to Ubeer because everyone will get delicious food and great service in a homey, beautifully traditional wooden pub atmosphere.
PS I’m glad to have found your site and will be back to see what else is new!
For the commenter above asking about Dr. Dawg I work nearby and eat there on occasion and it is an AWESOME place for people with Celiac. They are knowledgable about cc and even the cupcakes are GF! Separate fryer for fries and GF bun options for everything. Highly recommend them!
Another place I have really been excited about lately is Ian’s pizza on North Ave. They have a GF crust that they can make with any of their regular pizza toppings (I usually get smoky the bandit). The first time I found out about the crust I asked some questions about CC and I was satisfied with the answers (however, I would always encourage someone to ask for yourself before just taking my word for it). They told me they use a clean cutter for all GF pizzas.
Does Jose’s Blue Sombrero have a dedicated fryer? Their gluten free menu looks pretty good!
Have you ever been to or do you know anything about Jackson Grill on the south side? It’s on Mitchell St. Ate there before being diagnosed and the food is excellent. Would like to go back.
Hi Alicia — I haven’t been, and to be honest, I haven’t even heard of it. But after reading about them and checking out the menu… now I want to go! http://thejacksongrill.com/menu.html I would give them a call and ask questions: do they have GF options, if YES, how are they prepared to avoid cross contamination, is the chef/staff knowledgeable, etc. Come back and let us know!
I ended up going to Jackson’s Grill and had a positive experience. The waitress was knowledgable and after I asked her questions the woman at the table next to me informed me she is GF and eats there all the time. I am newer to my Celiac diagnosis so I’m still a bit sheepish at times about asking about cc issues but with the waitresses willingness to talk to the chef about anything and the women next to me being so enthusiastic I decided to not worry too much. (I know the woman may have just been GF and not Celiac, and I realize I was taking a risk, I’m still learning). I had a great experience and the food is always amazing there (used to eat there before diagnosis). I don’t feel comfortable vouching for the CC issues but I think they would be accommodating as they were very helpful with all of my questions. And the food is fabulous. It’s mostly steak and veggies. They have a few soups and salad dressings that would be a risk but the menu is pretty simple.
Oooo! I see Chipotle on your list. I haven’t had it in 3 months because I’ve been nervous! Which location do you go to? Because I will be going.. 🙂 Thanks!
Hi Stephanie — I’ve eaten safely at the Chipotle on the east side, on Ogden I believe. And also at the one by Mayfair. I just tell them I have an “allergy” (I know, celiac isn’t an allergy, but they GET that.) 😉 and to please change their gloves and have the same person handle my order all the way through the line, rather than switching for the condiments. It has always worked well and they are happy to do it. I’ve eat at Chipotle while traveling in other states as well, both CO and AZ successfully.
Has anyone tried Dr. Dawg on Port Washington Road in Glendale? I was doing some investigating since I have seminar near there next week. I called and the gal was super nice. She happily rattled off GF: Hamburger buns, hot dog buns, burgers, brats, dogs, italians, kolby beef and salami. (all sausage is homemade.) And FRIES! She said they are awesome, home made, soaked in water and deep fried in dedicated fryer. People who are GF stop in to purchase them by the ‘bag’ (yes they sell them cooked by the bag full!) I will see if they have a seperate GF menu. Made my day!
PS Any “typo’s” I had – is just because I am so excited to have found this site. 🙂
Hui’s chinese is Wauwatosa does not have a GF menu. Rose and her brother are very familiar with GF. I bring my own GF soy sauce and have never had a reaction. Chicken and shrimp is safe. Pork and beef is marinated in regular soy sauce. And nothing deep fried is safe. They have great Saturday lunch plates.
Hui’s Cantonese & American
(414) 475-5150
8818 W North Ave
Wauwatosa, WI 53226
Thanks for the info!
Mo’s in Tosa…has good food. Be leary of the GF menu. They’ve told me they can NOT guarantee the GF foods not getting cross contaminated. Server was nice, but, again uneducated — I can’t take the chance.
Mo’s didn’t make my list because of the issues with their “GF” menu. Some gluten intolerant friends eat there, but after hearing from them about their own concerns with keeping things GF, I’ve skipped it and had a cider instead. 😉
Sarah – I am so happy my friends saw your great write up in the Cue Food section. I have celiac disease..Easter will be 3 yrs. your recipes and blog have given me my enthusiasm to cook back!
You have a restaurant listed that you have NOT tried. I have, love the place and the people, but last 3 visits my GF dinner left me sick. Last lunch I ended up in the ER. Besides being sick for Christmas, having a large medical bill I’ve been torn on what to do with the restaurant…I do NOT want others to get sick.
Hope to talk more. Thanks so much,
Jennifer
Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for stopping by, so glad you found me! 🙂 And it makes my day to hear you are back to cooking again.
If you’d prefer, you can send me a private message: celiacinthecity@gmail.com But I definitely want to know about your experience and I feel it is our job to help our little community, so let’s chat!
Marty’s Pizza in Brookfield now has a 10″ gluten free pizza! Delicious!
REALLY? I thought they would NEVER catch on at that location, yay!!
Just ate at Casa Di Gorgio in Franklin yesterday. Great pasta dish. However was not impressed with their pizza. My current favorite pizza is at Classic Slice in Bay View or Mia Famiglia
Mo’s Irish Pub downtown has a gluten free menu. I am not sure about Wauwatosa, though. I am also not sure about the fryer situation, but they do have gluten free bread for burgers and sandwiches.
El Fuego (on Layton by the airport) has a gluten free menu. They do note on their menu that their cheese is not gluten free.
Kil@wat does not have a gluten free menu, but will work with you. Same with Ward’s House of Prime and Mason Street Grill downtown.
Thanks for the tips, Stacie — word of caution… Mo’s has a big disclaimer on their menu that their main ingredients listed do not contain gluten, but other ingredients may, it wasn’t enough for me to feel safe to eat there.
I ate at MO’s down town and loved it. no issues, friendly staff – manager came out… the whole nine yards
Went to Tosa and not only did I get extremely sick, but they were rude and for a place that has a DEDICATED G-F menu, were EXTREMELY uneducated even the manager came up to me and rudely said what are you complaining about all our breads are gluten free, and 20 min later came back and said sorry I am from ohio where we ONLY serve gluten free breads and did not know Wisconsin does- but his TONE of sorry was condescending and he was just a plain ASS.
Thanks for letting me know. I have not had a problem downtown, but I haven’t eaten at the one in Tosa. Downtown has a dedicated fryer. Kil@wat now has a gluten free menu, but it’s basically taking items from their regular menu that are gluten free. They totally work with you to subsitute whatever you want. Their menu changes often enough, too, kind of like Tess.
