Tried J Gumbo’s yesterday.  It is a fast food cajun/creole eatery.  About a half dozen menu items are designated gluten free, including spicy Voodoo Chicken, creamy Bumblebee Stew and a traditional Jambalaya.  Loved that they offer samples, so I tried all of the GF varieties before placing my order.  I enjoyed a bowl of White Chili served over rice.  As I was leaving I saw a menu notation that you can order a 2nd entree for $1 or 3rd for $2 more, served together in one bowl. The next time I would get the spicy Voodoo Chicken in combination with one of the milder offerings.

Located just up from Public Square between Chipotle and Noodlecat.

From Gay:
Last night we stopped at Light Bistro (Ohio City neighborhood) for a late evening bite.
The general manager stopped to chat and assured me that the kitchen is always willing to work with the gluten-free requests coming from folks with CD. I ordered my favorite “small plate” of lamb meatballs in a tomato sauce plus a side salad with a fresh vinaigrette dressing.
When I go in at lunch, I typically order their fresh fish or chicken entree for the day.

Update 3/14/2013: Gay says: If life brings you to the Ohio City neighborhood in Cleveland, Light Bistro located at 2801 Bridge Ave., now has a printed, gluten-free menu.  In addition, they often have specials that can be prepared gluten-free.  I especially enjoy their salmon or chicken entrees at lunch. And Nicole adds: I have also eaten there before and they were easily able to accommodate anything I wanted.

The Oak Barrel

I much enjoyed lunch yesterday at The Oak Barrel.  They have an extensive gluten free menu and the server was very knowledgeable and made several trips to the kitchen confirming french fries were gluten free, but the house made blue corn chips were not made in a dedicated fryer.  They do not have GF bread, so you would have to byob (bring your own bun) for a burger.  I had the Yucatan BBQ Pork taco, sans shell, and the tender well-flavored pork was served platter style with a bowl of tasty slaw.  I did not miss the shell.  I also tried the Chef’s Garden Pickled Vegetables and was treated to a nice selection of pickled radish, carrot and rutabaga slices in addition to the expected cucumber.  There are a number of vegetarian friendly menu items.  The server said the restaurant would soon announce a Sunday brunch menu and promised it would have gluten free options.
