There were several gluten free entrees, although no specific gluten free menu. My salmon, rice pilaf and vegetables were healthy and very satisfying. Nice location on the waterfront. Recommend.

Not knowledgeable about gluten free at all. Only said the salads and dressings were gluten free. Did not feel comfortable eating here.

We tried the scallops and pork belly with risotto and asparagus. Wow, the taste of this dish was amazing! We also tried the salmon with a side of carrots, broccoli and rice. It, too, was great. For dessert we had the cream brûlée. We certainly were not disappointed. Great service too. Zero reaction. Definitely would return.

The waiter was very helpful in identifying what my options were. We went there for lunch and there were 4 or 5 options.

I had the chicken and Brie salad. It was very good!

We’re also able to accommodate my soy and canola oil allergies.

Service was awesome. The lunch menu was marked to show which items were GF. There were only a few options but they all sounded delicious. I had the marinated vegetable salad and they added a salmon filet to the salad. We also had the Peel & Eat Shrimp for an appetizer - it was all very fresh and delicious. I did not get sick.

Check you dish before you eat I ordered shrimp scampi with rice pilaf substituted for pasta. My dish came with rice but there were several pieces of pasta under the rice. Got sick and they didn’t offer to cover my meal.

Was here for lunch. Very few options for GF on the menu and server not interested in offering substitutes. That being said, I went with the Brie salad. Very good.

Update 8/2017 --- wonderful GF dinner last night! Even a special fruit fondue dessert and no worries about CC. What a treat to have a safe place while visiting with delicious options! Can't wait to return.

They do have about 6-7 gluten free menu entrees that are labeled GF. You need to specify that you want it GF though, as we assumed it was obvious that my husband and I purposely ordered GF meals after discussing options for our 3 yr old celiac son, but my husband's entree came out with bread on top! This caused a problem once our son wanted to try our food and a cross contamination hassle we were trying to avoid having to do for once. They were very accommodating for our son by trying to come up with an option for him. I believe it was Brett (??) who came to our table and said his whole family is celiac.
