Hooper's Crab House

The menu is clearly marked with what items are gluten free!!! There were lots of choices- I had the short ribs with mashed potatoes & green beans!! Obviously it’s a crab house so lots of the seafood dishes are GF! We were with a large group- I was the only one GF- but every one enjoyed their meal !

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The menu was clearly labeled and I felt fairly confident that this restaurant would be safe after reading reviews. I ordered an appetizer that was able to be made gluten free and when it came out I asked if it was gluten free, and the girl who ran the food wasn’t sure so she went to check. Turns out it contained gluten and the waitress did not ring it in to be prepared gluten free. They ended up preparing me a new plate that was gluten free, which was fine. Then the dinner arrives at the table and I start eating, and I notice it’s missing a lobster. I ended up getting the wrong platter delivered to me which may have not been prepared with precautions. I eventually got the correct dish, but unfortunately I already started eating the wrong one as it was very similar to what I ordered and I didn’t know any better. Within the hour I was sick. The manager and waitress were attentive, but not so knowledgeable. Avoid this place if celiac.

We ate here on 8/10/17 and we had the best experience. My oldest son has Celiacs so I made sure I told this to our server, he wrote it down next to my sons order, order came out just as ordered. Menu had clearly labeled what items were gluten free. Will definitely go back again!

Very GF friendly! Great experience.

I questioned the wait staff 3 times to ask if the chicken wings were cooked in the same oil with any thing containing gluten and she repeatedly assured me they weren't. She also assured me the tortillas were corn. I wasn't comfortable after ordering so I spoke to the manager and he confirmed what I thought. Wings are cooked in same oil as rockfish bites that are breaded in flour and tortillas were flout NOT corn. I told the manager he should strongly consider removing the "gf" symbol from the menu and educating his weight staff !

Beware of this place. You have to be very specific when ordering. There menu labels their wings as Gluten Free. I double checked with my server to make sure their wings were not fried with other breaded products and she replied "I believe they are." I asked to see a manager and the manager told me they could bake the wings to accommodate my Gluten Free request. I ended up ordering the bacon wrapped scallops. Just be very specific with server if you eat here

This establishment has items on menu that are indicated as gluten free, but really are not. The Buffalo chicken bake is listed as gf but comes with pita chips. The dip itself is gf, but they don't have anything to dip into it. The fish tacos are listed as gf, but is served on a flour tortilla. I requested to speak with the manager who said that he would take it under advisement and look into having a new menu printed as he realizes it could "mess with people's stomachs". I informed him that many people, including myself becomes violently ill. If I had not questioned any of the menu items I would have gotten very ill. However, about 20 minutes after leaving I had some stomach upset. it was probably from cross contamination.
