Celiac visiting Scottsdale

Hello Fellow Chowhounders,

I'm visiting Scottsdale next week for a little getaway, and looking for the best places for a pescatarian, celiac to dine. From the research of done, Scottsdale looks pretty gluten-free friendly as a whole, but I'm just curious if there are any "must-visit" places. We'll be staying at the Fairmont Princess, so a couple of close options would be great.

Thanks for your help!

    I would also recommend that if you go to a place that regularly changes up its menu that you call ahead to let them know you're coming. It's much easier for restaurants to accommodate those with dietary restrictions if they are able to prepare for them.

      Your searched the board for "gluten", right?

      Here is one of a few matching threads:

        Thank you - I did peruse that thread. I was just curious if there were any specific places with more pescatarian and vegetarian gluten free options, especially in and around our hotel.

          Near your hotel I would recommend Calistro Bistro (either location), Picazzo's for a more casual pizza, or White Chocolate Grill for their tomato gin soup. Calistro and WCG both have nice fish options.

          If you're willing to drive up to Cave Creek, Tonto Bar & Grill is a neat place.

          If you plan to be near Old Town Scottsdale then make a reservation for the counter at FnB. Always one fish item on the menu, but have fun exploring the veg options, it's Chef Charleen's forte. Hope that butterscotch pudding is on the menu that evening. Citizens Public House has a wonderful scallop dish. Specify GF on the Original Chopped salad and no bacon with the scallops. Herb Box, POSH, Atlas Bistro and noca are also great spots that can accommodate. Beckett's Table has lots of great veg and GF options, but might be farther than you want to travel.

          Please report back with any new finds you might make in the area and enjoy your visit.
