Bluewater Grill

Love this place. Excellent food, great location, and very knowledgeable about cross-contamination. There are lots of options (even beyond what is listed on the separate gf menu, including the crab and artichoke dip), and the food is exceptional. The risotto and scalloped potatoes are now gluten free as well, despite an earlier review indicating otherwise. My brother is a very sensitive celiac and he has never been contaminated here.

Not very impressed with this place. First place I've been to where the risotto is not gf, and scalloped potatoes were not either (in Europe they're usually gf). Server didn't seem very knowledgeable, but was friendly and asked the kitchen. When we got the food, both of our dishes were different than advertised. Fish was the same, but I got it covered in spices (seemed like it was with flour, so had to double check with the kitchen) and with sour cream instead of a beurre blanc.

Waiter was helpful in choosing what items would be safe and asked chef when not certain. I had fish of the day and my gf son had brick chicken -both tasty with no issues.

DO NOT RECOMMEND. The waiter asked me if bread had gluten in it. When I asked to speak to the manager, I was told that the previous manager knew about gluten, not him. So he never came to our table. I am aware that the service industry took a hit during covid and we need to be patient but this place is unsafe.

Celiac friendly?

No

We have eaten here twice and both times really enjoyed our meal. We happened to have the same server both times and he was excellent at making me feel safe. We ordered GF + DF and items were great!

We loved this restaurant. I had the crab cocktail, crab Louie salad (shared) and the clam and mussel combo pot. It was delicious. The manager is GF and was very helpful. My husband and sister are not GF and they really enjoyed their meals as well.

The food was wonderful and the staff was very knowledgeable and took extra care to ensure my dish was gluten free and that my intolerance was noted. A lot of variety of gluten free options when it comes to the main dishes. Many of the fish can be prepared without flour or grilled plain. Unsure if they use separate cooking utensils as I am not sensitive to that kind of cross contamination.

We stopped in here for lunch. The waiter said they could make many of the items gluten free and cook separate for safety. I ordered a gluten free burger, he said I couldn’t have the fries. Which was fine. They brought out my burger with fries. I was a little worried to eat here after this, but they did redo my food. I didn’t get sick, so that’s good.

Offered a gluten free menu and the server was knowledgeable about what items could work. Had the salmon, rice and green beans with no problems.
