Delicious meal but not many gf options. Staff seemed knowledgeable about Celiac. Had an incredible Sole dish. On a previous visit, I has gf crab cakes that were amazing but unfortunately they were out of crab when I visited this time.

Delicious food. Lots of options. Waiter was knowledgeable and asked chef questions for items he was unsure of. Had crab cakes, salad, and tomatoes with olive oil and sea salt.

Hallelujah. Outstanding food and value -- nothing fussy, just well done seafood and drinks -- at Rehoboth Beach. I had the GF crab cakes the first night, and some seafood special platter the next night, both extremely nice. Husband enjoyed soft shell crab. Service was good, servers knowledgable, nice atmosphere.

Really delicious food. Great wait staff that is kind, knows about gluten, and knows their menu well. No gf menu bec many items on menu are gf in their “normal” preparation. Excellent crab cakes(gf in “normal” prep)) Outside seating during covid.

I highly recommend. I will be back.

While this place does not have a gluten-free menu specifically, ask any server and they should be able to help point you in the direction of what is gluten-free. Most of the menu is available gluten free. I have celiac disease and have been gluten-free for 18 years, so I have a very high expectation and requirement for any restaurant I go to, and this definitely won my heart. A great place to take a nice date to and definitely a more high-end feeling.

Our server told us about the specials for the day and offered the crab cakes instantly saying “gluten free” I was sold. I have never had a problem eating here. One of the best restaurants in town. That is why we constantly go back.

It seems the restaurants in this area do not make their menues with GF items, and the consumer is subject to how knowledgeable thei server is. in the case of Henlopen City Oyster House the staff knows their stuff. My voice of meal was modified to be GF and was outstanding. we will be returning.
