I was so excited to try this place on our trip. However it backfired on me. I was sick before we were even finished dinner. They brought out gluten free rolls. But waiter advised against oil for dipping since it’s made in the regular bread station. Had a Caesar salad and the sausage gf pizza. Two slices of the 10 inch pizza and I had to run to the parking lot. Would not recommend for celiacs I won’t return. I was up all night and had gluten bumps on my hands the next day. Really unfortunate experience.

Great gluten free options- sandwiches, pizzas, and dinners. Dedicated special orange plates help insure no mix ups. They take GF seriously. Enjoyed pan seared seafood cakes served on a bed of yummy cheesy polenta with haricoverts. Absolutely wonderful. Great casual atmosphere with nice bar. Service was prompt and attentive. Our terrific server Jack was awesome. Don't hesitate to try this place!

All gluten free items come out on an orange plate! They have an extensive gf menu and some items I’ve never been able to find - French onion soup was great! I also liked the pizza and they had a bunch of different topping options!

Was there last week.Their gluten-free menu is small. Had a shrimp and crabmeat sandwich for dinner. The bun was dry and crumbly. The sandwich was small . I was not offered a side. All I got was a small bag of chips.For the price the restaurant could of done better.

The disclaimer/warning at the top of this restaurant’s GF menu is so long and scary that I almost left immediately, but after interrogating the waitress – and double-checking the reviews on Find Me Gluten Free – I realized I’d be safe. The allergen warning says that ALL meats are cooked on the same grill as glutinous items, but the waitress assured me that the kitchen would prep my meal on a clean, uncontaminated surface using clean utensils. In fact, the restaurant has a system by which they “tag” celiacs with an orange napkin and then serve GF meals on orange plates. I had a cup of Manhattan clam chowder to start and then a pulled pork sandwich on a GF bun. Both were delicious, and I did not get sick.

Went to Lucky Bones for the first time tonight. We were lucky enough to have Jenni as our server. I am Celiac and this place is AMAZING for gluten free options. They have a Gluten free menu with such variety! You don't feel like you are settling for what you can have. I had the best and goat cheese salad and the Salmon with polenta! I felt very safe in this restaurant as the gluten free food is served on beautiful bright orange dishware. They are paying attention! There was even gluten free desserts but I am too full to even think about it. I am still sitting in the restaurant as I am writing this review because I was that impressed. I will be back! Date of visit: October 2023

I was glutened and this place is just not good. The food (regular and gluten free) was meh. They made a big show of having orange plates for gluten free food. But the the waiter carried my plate (gf) and another plate (not gf) on the same arm and my sandwich was touching the non-gf crab cake on the other plate. I tried to eat around the area that was touched but got glutened anyway.

Second time coming here (last year was the first while visiting cape may). They have a separate menu which makes it easy to make choices. They also bring all gf items out on orange plates to ensure that you get what your ordered. I had the crab and shrimp cake sandwich which I enjoyed. Would have loved fries, but they are not safe so they serve with a bag of chips. Not a big deal, I was more interested in the sandwich anyway. The bun was soft and did not get soggy, which is a win for me!

I was very pleased with the way this restaurant handled gluten free dietary restrictions.

When I told the server I had Celiac disease I was handed an orange gluten free menu and, she gave me an orange cocktail napkin instead of the standard white everyone else received. All allergy-friendly meals come out on orange plates. I found the "orange designation" gave me confidence that they took care with my order. I very much appreciated that.

They also had Ghostfish GF beer on tap.

Service was great. Food was pretty good, but not great.

My only gripe is that the Gluten Free menu is that it claims "AWARD WINNING" pizza. The pizza was not great.

This place has an exceptional gluten free protocol! When you arrive and ask for a gluten free menu, you are given a orange napkin which signifies you have a gluten allergy! All of your food (except dessert)is served on an orange plate which signifies that it’s gluten free. I felt at ease that I didn’t have to explain I had celiac disease and how I can get sick if I receive cross contaminated food. I ordered French onion soup, Sofia pizza, and flourless chocolate torte. Everything was delicious and I didn’t get sick!

Best GF experience to date since my daughters diagnosis. Impressed they are so careful with GF items. The separate Orange Menu & Napkins to indicate Celiacs are a great idea to alert your server visually to the GF requirement at the table. Appreciate the orange plates that all GF items are served on too as a helpful reminder of the allergy. Server (Vicki) was very knowledgeable about Celiacs, as her own daughter has Celiacs. We had the French Onion Soup, crab cake sandwich, pizza, filet, garlic mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli. No dedicated fryer though. But many options to choose from!

The staff seemed knowledgeable, and Lucky Bones has a separate gf menu. Our server was able to answer my questions. My daughter and I are gf due to celiac. She had French onion soup with the pork chop dinner, and I had Crab Cakes (which I had the night before too at Fins, but I am just so thrilled to be able to eat crab cakes after 3 years!). My crab cakes came with polenta and green beans—it was all delicious. We both still feel well after eating!

Disappointing visit. Waitress seemed untrained to explain the protocols for preventing cross contamination. Couldn’t answer question about how grilled chicken was prepared but just responded with a general, “we have a lot of protocols like the orange napkins and plates for people who cannot have gluten.”Nonetheless she proceeds to bring out the alleged GF Mac n cheese for my celiac kiddo NOT on an orange plate. So I ask her where the orange plate is, and she just says, “I literally just made this myself.. it’s gluten free.” Not instilling a lot of confidence.

I personally don’t have dairy and when I wanted a DF salad dressing that seemed to be another blind spot not just for the waitress but even the manager. What they claimed was DF seemed awfully creamy to me … and after all that truthfully the Mac n cheese wasn’t very good according to the people in my family who do eat dairy. Just think they can do better. Really going to think twice before going back.

A busy location, even at 5pm. Seated promptly. Service was excellent. Drinks great, esp the Fig Martini. Highly recommend that. Rocket salad was an innovative blend of arugula and other veggies with a great green goddess dressing. Things went a bit downhill after that. We ordered a gf pizza (classic jule). And a smash burger. The pizza toppings were flavorful and spot on, but the rice crust was tasteless and had a cardboard like texture. Not one of the better gf crusts I’ve had lately. The burger bun was soft and chewy (just right) but the burger itself did not have much flavor. It did not live up to the description on the menu. Mind you neither dish was bad, but I guess we were expecting more than just okay.

We went as a large party and made reservations. This is a must because of the long wait times of over an hour (mid august).

As we walked in we were asked if there were any kids or gluten free menus. My gf menu was a separate one that was a different size and color. Waitress confirmed I needed it and also asked if I was celiac or gluten allergy (I am celiac).

The door I ordered (crab cakes with polenta) was brought out on an orange plate (normal plates are white).

The food was amazing. We will definitely go back.

Unbelievably good!!! Staff is very knowledgeable. All the gf plates are orange so the staff is aware of the allergy. my daughter had her very first crabcake and she fell in love. She also had bacon wrapped scallops. Then for dessert, she had a flourless chocolate cake with raspberry sauce.

Ate here several times on vacation. Excellent variety of GF food. Had the pizza and the shrimp and crab cakes. They serve all GF food on an orange plate. Servers were very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.

My partner has Celiac and so far this is the best place we’ve had dinner so far while visiting Cape May! He is a “silent” Celiac, so I can’t speak to cross-contamination, but they do have an extensive GF menu with plenty of options and our waitress said the owner has Celiac, so they seem very aware and knowledgeable. They even go so far as to plate any GF food on orange plates so you know it’s been communicated between kitchen and staff and is safe to eat! What a great idea! Highly recommend the Brussel sprouts special and the pork chop!

I’ve eaten at Lucky Bones many times over the years and have never gotten sick. I always stick to the pizza. The crust is good and not too thin. It tastes like actual pizza and not a cracker!! The non-GF people I’ve gone there with have said the food is good but to stick to simple orders and not go for the fancy specials.

We frequent Lucky Bones regularly. I always order off of their GF menu, stressing each time I have celiac. The last time we ate there I ordered the daily pasta special GF. Unfortunately, I got sick & am not sure whether it was the sauce or the pasta. Going forward I will stick with broiled options & salad.

Went here for dinner 6/24/22. Yes they have gf menu. However, ordered crab & shrimp cake and though it was good, was very small for the expensive price. Husband also got a fish and chips and gave him two pieces of fish, and again, very pricey menu for small quantities. Wouldn’t visit again.
