I am a fan of Stir Crazy at Legacy Village in Lyndhurst.  The restaurant features a Market Bar, a wok stir fry created while you watch.  Let the server know you are gluten free when you order and choose one of the gluten free sauces. My favorite is the teriyaki. Then fill your dish full of veggies. Skip the sauce section as the chef will get your gluten free sauce from the kitchen.  I really like communicating directly with the chef, making sure the wok and cooking spoon are washed prior to starting preparation of my food.  I also ask that my dish be cooked with no oil and they happily use water or vegetable or chicken broth instead.

Thanks, Bette, for sharing your experience:

Located on the CSU campus, Elements is a popular lunch spot. Unfortunately, there is almost nothing on the menu that is naturally gluten free. Some of the salads can be made safe with omissions and substitutions, but choice is extremely limited. The knowledge level of the servers, and their attention to detail, is quite variable. Some are wonderful, others are either clueless or careless. On one occasion I was assured the salad dressing was safe, but got quite sick after eating it—now I bring my own.
