Look For Gluten Free Restaurant In A Smartphone App
Have a smartphone? Try the Find Me Gluten Free app. It is useful for locating user-contributed gluten-free options! Search for it in the app store.
What I don’t like about this app is that a few reviewers leave bad reviews for restaurants for reasons like a bad wait person or menu choices when it is kind of not relevant to the whether everything was GF…so know that before you use the app.

- Keep a couple GF nutrition bars in your car or bag just in case.
- Spend time to do some research. Come up with a few Gluten Free Restaurant options.
- If this is your first time to a Gluten Free Restaurant in Santa Catalina Island , then stick to foods that are likely gluten-free – meats, salads, fruits and that kind of thing. This is probably not a good time to try gluten-free pasta or cake – if you’ve never been there before!
