    Angry Food allergies are driving me mad!!!!

    I've been placed in charge of finding a restaurant that can accomodate the following:

    a raw food diet (essentially just fresh fruits/vegetables/nuts)
    allergy to gluten
    allergy to onions/garlic
    allergy to dairy
    allergy to fish
    allergy to vegetables

    and can seat 11 people at 7:30 on a friday night.

    ....anyone have any ideas?

    O.o
    getting someone on a raw food diet and someone with an allergy to veggies might be hard xD
    Tell them to bring their own meal

    most meat places have a salad that the raw foody can eat.
    I am having the most trouble with no garlic/onions.....

    anyone know a cuisine that that is optional?

    Well, most restaurants with garlic or onions they can just order their meals to keep those two things off. Mention allergies and most restaurants will accommodate you.

    Maybe sushi? My friend allergic to gluten can eat it, someone on the food diet can get salad or edamame, I don't think onions or garlic are in sushi, and I don't think there's dairy either, if they're allergic to fish they can get vegetable rolls, and if they're allergic to vegetables they can get the rolls with just fish in them

    Adding to this, if you're making reservations, it's always nice to give the restaurant a heads up. That way they'll be ready and know what they can offer each person that will fit their dietary restriction.

    that's a really good idea, but the family is very paranoid about cross contamination with the seafood items. thank you though!

    There is this place where I live called Mad Greens. Its basically a build your own salad bar (like subway for salads), but they also do sandwiches and paninis. Are there any places like that in NYC? The build your own salad bar accommodates everyone except for the allergy to vegetables, and that person can grab a sandwich.

    Btw how can someone be allergic ALL veggies? Dx Thats what my son says when he doesnt want to eat his. Sure they arent faking? haha



    Or maybe some other buffet style restaurant where people can pick and choose what they are comfortable eating.
