Island Wing Company

Great for French fry lovers. No shared frier to worry about here! All the other stuff I’d be really careful. The staff doesn’t seem very knowledgeable. It’s more of a sports bar vibe so not the place I would go if I wanted a really good and really safe gluten free meal. However, the fries are a reliable choice, and this is where I go if I’m craving decent fries and a drink.

Island Wings has recently changed their wing supplier. The new wings have yeast extract made from barley therefore they are no longer GF. I ordered off the GF menu and the manager came out and explained it was a recent and permanent change. The fries were safe but bland.

DO NOT GO HERE. I was told 3 times by a hostess, server, and carry-out employee that my meal was gluten free. I was instantly sick. I waited on hold for 20 minutes with a manager who completely denied that I ate gluten, was willing to give me $6 out of $31 back as a refund. Finally fought for my money back completely and he said the bone-in wings are gluten free, but boneless wings are not (which I had). Never apologized once.

My husband & I ate here tonight (2/12/22) & I had an awful experience. I have celiac & I told our waitress who provided me with their Gluten-free menu, which surprisingly had a lot of options. I order chicken wings & fries & within 10 minutes of eating, I was horribly sick & suffered for several hours. I will never eat here again.

This was my favorite wing place in town before I learned I have celiac disease and it still is! Servers are very knowledgeable, the bone-in wings, fries, and some sauces are gluten free. As are a handful of other items, including sandwiches on gluten free bread. They'll make sure your food's prepared separately with clean equipment, and since their wings and fries are baked instead of fried there's minimal risk for cross contamination from frying oil.

The fries and wings were good. Separate menue with clear outline of sauces, dressings and menu items which were GF. No reaction after eating there, but I am only mildly sensitive to cross contamination.

Went here based on reviews. The staff were fantastic and they had a separate gluten free menu, but the food wasn't fantastic. I had the garlic Parmesan wings and the bacon cheese fries. Wings didn't have much flavor and the fries were soggy.

Ordered online. There was no option to mark it GF (though you can choose GF fries). I spoke to the restaurant and confirmed the wings are GF as is (just pay attention to which sauces are safe on the GF menu posted online). They said I could call back after placing the order and they’d make sure it was noted GF for the kitchen. Had wings and fries, no issues.

I have eaten here a few times with no issues. I order the wings and GF fries with no issue. It is a shared kitchen so I stick to what works but it is delicious.

Had the Lunch Special 5 Buffalo Traditional Wings with fries yesterday and it was awesome. Separate GF menu but they easily incorporated GF items for the Special of the day. Everything was baked so no fryer issues. I haven’t had wings at a restaurant since my Celiac diagnosis so this was truly a treat and I will be back!! Oh and confirming that I had no issues with the food 24 hours later! Manager came to make sure everything was good which I greatly appreciated.
