Flipper's on the Bay

Loved this place! We are planning on doing more excursions in fort Myers in the future. They can alter most dishes basically that you want. Service was super pleasant. And the food was exceptional! Especially for what you get. Lots of food for the value. Bottom line when you're telling them that you were celiac they know what it means!

My meal was delicious (black grouper) and our server was understanding of Celiac. He was generally otherwise quite terrible at his job but I would go back since it was a great meal, nice environment and other staff was really good.

Seems safe but not many gf options. No kid friendly options. No gf buns, bread or pasta. I was hoping for the gf chicken wings I saw online but they weren’t offered (maybe they’re only on the dinner menu). My daughter had a burger with no bun and a side of rice. Not really great for families with gf kids. We probably won’t be back.

JP was very helpful in making sure my food was gluten free and service from him and food was excellent! Highly recommend!

Very good food, very willing to accommodate gluten free and have the chef come speak to me. Tortilla chips aren't gluten free in spite of being listed as such. Food was great, but a bit pricey.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Such wonderful service!!! I've stayed in my comfort zone, since being diagnosed 4 months ago. Our server (wish I remembered his name) was fabulous!!! He made sure what I ordered was in-fact not only Celiac friendly, but prepared separately as well... We had a beautiful sunset view as our table was on the water, which was great for my sister n law and her brother to see...
