I had a lovely brunch at Orion’s! The service was excellent and the view was terrific. Get there early and you might get the corner table for 2 with a panoramic view of the beach! I knocked off a star because there were very few GF options. I had sushi rolls with GF soy sauce. But most of the other dishes were not available to be made GF. I was really disappointed because of the other reviews that showed a GF version of the menu. I never saw that. They also had no non-dairy milk options for coffee. But our server was great in helping me figure out the best option for my GF/DF diet. Maybe brunch was the wrong time to go. The sushi was delicious though!

They have an allergen menu that list GF/ DF options, but leaned more towards DF. The server and hostess seemed knowledgeable so that was helpful. I settled on the pad Thai, which was pretty good. Overall, I feel ok but just wish there were more options. Nice view and friendly service though.

We had a lovely time here! The sushi was really good and our waiter handled our many dietary requests very nicely. They modified a roll for me to be able to eat it gluten free and my waiter Aaron made sure I knew which ones were gluten free. They also had gluten free soy sauce available. The printed menu they gave me was less informative than Aaron was and we definitely felt like we were in good hands. Bridgett also took some amazing photos of us - this restaurant is beautiful, the views are great all around. Everyone on staff was helpful and kind to us.

Yes they have a gf menu but they are not “all in” on providing a safe and plentiful GF dining experience. Atmosphere and their sushi is top notch. However, pad Thai we had to send back as it was inedibly salty. They also brought me a salad which ended up not being gluten-free despite the server being aware. The lobster salad was bland and chewy. They should take notes from a restaurant like legal sea foods as to how to provide a safe and consistently excellent gluten-free day experience

There was not a separate gluten-free menu, but the waitress talked me through the gluten-free options. They are able to make a lot of the menu GF through substitutions (especially fish dishes, but also steak, pasta, and chicken!). The staff seemed very knowledgeable and communicated with the kitchen about allergies. I had the Chicken Pad Thai, which was amazing, and had no problems!

They didn’t have a gluten free menu to hand out, however the hostess showed me a modified menu that highlighted which options were gluten free. It also highlights which options can be modified to be gf (different sauce, noodles, etc.) I took a photo of this and used it when ordering. Would recommend doing the same! I had the chicken pad thai, which was gluten free and dairy free. It was spicy which I wasn’t expecting, but good overall. I also had a delicious creme brûlée for dessert. Our waitress was very nice and they were good about moving the outdoor heaters closer to us.

Great food. I only went for lunch and they had a separate menu with gluten free items listed. Very accommodating and felt like I had many options.
