Dining at Chili’s–Gluten-Free February 22, 2008

We took the whole family out on Tuesday to finally see how Chili’sGF menu was. It’s actually not too bad for a non-picky 4 yo Celiac. They had their kids’ burger & cheeseburger (sans bun, obviously) & ribs on the menu. There were quite a few other interesting picks. For the picky eater, however, there is corn, on or off the cob. 
They were very accommodating, printing out the menu for us when we asked and making, maybe a bit too sure, we didn’t get anything that wasn’t on the menu. The waitress was looking for the chocolate shake under “beverages” and wouldn’t let our son have one ‘cuz she couldn’t find it, it’s actually under “desserts.”
My dh will vouch for the taste of the loaded mashed potatoes & Memphis Dry-Rub ribs and I’ll do the same for the Salmon w/Garlic & Herbs. Their veggies were also delish. I asked for a side of butter ‘cuz sometimes restaurants like this have kinda gross veggies, but they didn’t need it. They were steamed perfectly.
All in all, this is our new fave restaurant. It’s too bad they don’t have one closer or we’d order ahead and eat there on our necessary Wednesday’s.
I have not been to Chili’s in years. I didn’t even realize they had a gluten free menu and it is actually pretty impressive. I will have to check them out next time I am close to one.
Thanks.
