Nick's Fish House

Sept 24, 2023- This was without question, one of my worst gluten free dining experiences since I was diagnosed with Celiac disease in 2017. They do not have a separate GF menu anymore. They used to have one, but no longer offer this choice. The only things that you can eat are a Cobb salad or a shrimp cocktail. Staff isn't knowledgeable about what ingredients contain gluten. They really can't speak for how they address cross-contamination. Just a bad experience. I ordered a Cobb salad. It was not what I wanted as the rest of my party ate trays of fresh crab. My salad was bland but at least I didn't have a gluten reaction. See EDIT.

EDIT: By the time we arrived back at our hotel, I was having all of my typical symptoms when exposed to gluten. I can address how they deal with cross-contamination. Badly!! Won't be back here again.

I ordered off the gluten free menu. It came with a crab cake. I asked if it was gluten free. He said no and he needed to take it back and I asked them to redo the whole plate as I will get sick. The waiter told them, and the cooks did NOT redo the plate. I only ate the rice and I told the waiter. The waiter was clearly upset with the cook. He took it off my bill but clearly the cook does not care.

The atmosphere is fantastic! I told the server I am allergic to shellfish, dairy and gluten, but also stayed on the safe side with grilled Mahi grilled asparagus and seasonal veggies. Flavor was amazing and I didn’t get sick. Always a plus.

I wanted this meal to work out so badly. The atmosphere was fun and we were celebrating a birthday. I ordered from the GF menu, speaking to my server who assured me they do a good job here. Broiled Seafood platter came out I ate it, it was delicious and two hours later (as is the case if I accidentally eat gluten) I was throwing up.

Celiac friendly?

No

Couldn’t eat anything, every dish is made with gluten

Celiac friendly?

No

The staff wasn’t very helpful. I just asked for steamed items to avoid any issues but wish they had a more knowledgeable stuff or a gluten free menu.

Our waiter is very knowledgeable and seafood is delicious. I had The grapefruit crush, tuna appetizer and steam pot
