Creekside Grille Offers Gluten-Free Menu Items
It all started when Mick Wilson discovered that he had Celiac disease. In people with celiac disease, the immune system reacts to gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye and barley, which causes inflammation in their gut and interferes with the absorption of nutrients. A few chain restaurants in America like Outback and P.F. Changs offer gluten-free menus, but most restaurants do not.
Most of our items are naturally gluten-free because Chef Steve makes all his sauces from scratch and most of the fresh fish and steak items are already gluten free. Steve has worked hard on finding tasty gluten free pasta and a home-made gluten free bread. Steve prepares gluten-free items using separate cutting boards and knives to avoid cross-contact. We also offer an amazing flourless chocolate dessert. All wine is naturally gluten-free, but we also offer tasty gluten-free beer. The early feedback from many local gluten free eaters (word gets out fast in the area) is that there are a lot of items to choose from and that they are very tasty.
