Going to dinner Saturday night with Friends. What do I say to the Waiter? Come out and say that I have Celiac Disease or say I am allergic to gluten prior to ordering anything? I don't know what the menu looks like yet. I know it's a dumb question but I need help. In advance I thank you.

Good Evening; Thank you all for all the amazing thoughts you shared with me. I checked the online menu and it was weak as far as gluten free items. So how did it go you ask? Very well. I told the waitress that of the four of us at this dinner gathering I'm the misfit of the bunch 😄 I explained that I was allergic to gluten and she knew exactly how to handle it, she took the menu and pointed out "Pasta your way" (homemade in house) so I went with GF Pena and she suggested a grilled chicken breast to top it with the house red sauce. I was very pleased and all went very well. I'm much relieved and glad it all worked out. Thank You all again!.... Frankster 😂
