Pops Sunset Grill

Not a lot of celiac offerings, but if you are easy, it can be done! Our waitress initially appeared flippant about my concerns As a celiac. But she came through, checking with the kitchen and making sure my food was as “clean” as possible. I had the fresh grilled mahi mahi either a veggie skewer and steamed green beans. Food was flavorful and good. Ended up being a good experience despite my initial concerns. Yea to Princess, our waitress, who took it seriously. Yeah to the cook who understood my needs.

I was hesitant to eat here since their weren’t many GF options, and the few items that did seem safe to eat were labeled GF (gluten friendly) and GFA (gluten free available). I typically stay away from establishments that don’t have clear protocol for gluten allergies but since I was on vacation with my family I didn’t have much of a choice. However, I was very pleased with how knowledgeable the wait staff was about celiac and safe menu items. Even though there weren’t many options to choose from, the one dish that I did get (mango rubbed shrimp) was absolutely delicious!

Our son has celiac. We informed our waiter who had the restaurant manager come over and go over our options. They were super kind and helpful to make sure our sons food had not been cross-contaminated. Our son wound up getting ribs (he devoured them), grilled vegetable skewer, and a garden salad with white balsamic.

My waiter argued with me about the fries. I asked “What sides are gluten free” and he said the fries and sweet potato fries. I asked if they were made in a separate fryer (I’m highly sensitive to cross contamination). They are made in the same fryer. I said, “Then they’re not really gluten free because of cross contamination.” HE said “Well they’re not breaded so they are.” I’m a server at a restaurant so the attitude bothered me but his indigence is alarming when it comes to something as serious as celiacs. This might just be him as an individual server but I’m wary of the lack of precaution taken in his training and I’m cautious if this is also the attitude of the kitchen. Unfortunately they were out of both gf pizzas and gf wraps. Our server really killed my night. He shut down any questions and wouldn’t check with the kitchen. The opposite of accommodating. The lack of GF options aside (maybe their vendors are out idk). $20 for 6 shrimp on a skewer and I left hungry. The food and the drinks were tasty. My mom (also gluten free) comes here all of the the time and loves it. Make of all of this what you will.

VERY ACCOMMODATING Service EXCELLENT the manager went to the kitchen made the chef aware & had them changed gloves. she also checked ingredients & carried my plate out with gloves Food was great! I had Mediterranean salad I highly recommend

I would be very cautious of this place. Many things on the menu are marked as gf but when I inquired about them, the server would check with the kitchen and say things like, yes, but without sauce, which is not noted in the menu. They have gf quesadillas, but I would be cautious of those as a celiac. I would assume they are cooked in the same griddle as non-GF. I have eaten here a few times and never felt great after so I would stick to a salad with baked fish or something.

I had the chicken wrap and the wrap was actually tasty. It was really good. We sat in the tiki hut and it was beautiful but too hot - need some ceiling fans. Will eat in next time and not in the sun. Will go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Menu is clearly marked what is gf, but when I told server I was gluten allergic, she said, "OK, as long as you know what gluten is". I then explained basically what it was, she looked confused, and I said put the gluten items on a seperate plate. Plates came with onion rings on one and other gluten items on the others, truly exhausting, over 100.00 worth I food I could not eat, but I paid for. Luckily, the people I was with were able to eat it all and said overall it was good. Always fun to sit and watch others eat, wasn't the first time and won't be the last time either. Can't fix stupid with some servers, and the reason I lose weight when we travel, the upside I guess.

No

No gluten free menu but the main menu is clearly marked. Delicious food and lots of options!

Great waterfront restaurant and fresh seafood on a wood burning grill. The menu highlighted a large gluten free selection and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable .

excellent fish served with delicious mashed potatoes and ginger carrots. staff was very caring. They made a point to note GF and soy free when I ordered. ordering was simple, and the food was fantastic

Not gluten free no menu no separate fryer. Wish places wouldn't show up on this ap that truly are not gluten free

Celiac friendly?

No

I eat here often. Buffalo wings are great as well as the steam pots. My favorite is the black jack burger (no bun) on top of a side salad with their own lemon vinaigrette dressing. YUM!!
