Skipjack's Seafood Emporium

Consistently good food. Love this place!

The gluten-free menu is somewhat deceptive, particularly if you have Celiac Disease or a strong intolerance to gluten. DO NOT eat the fries, they are fried with battered foods. I was charged an extra $1 to have vegetables steamed without butter (dairy intolerance). Lobster was great, but none of my food was seasoned- at all! Gluten-free should not mean seasoning or spice-free.

We eat here every time we are in town. They have great GF selections and the food is unbelievable.

Great, fresh seafood and tasty GF options! Fried calamari was excellent for all- GF folks and not. Also had fried fish on menu but we didn't try it. We will go back.

There were a lot of negative reviews on this site from 6 years ago, so here is a better one from 2023. Skipjack's now has a menu of the items they can make GF and they also have a dedicated fryer. So you can get fries and calamari in a rice batter. Unfortunately, they do not list on their website that they have GF options and I almost didn't go there because of that.

I have celiac and got extremely sick a half hour after leaving while shopping. It ruined my night out and I had a very painful 40 minute ride home after spending an hour in a store bathroom. I got calamari as an appetizer and fish and chips. If you have celiac DO NOT GO HERE!

they say gluten free but manager told me not to eat anything because its not guaranteed. aweful experience

food was delicious. Waitress warned me not to have anything fried if gluten allergy.

Please note the staff & management are not properly trained. FYI the calamari is cooked with sweet potato fries that have a coating that contains gluten. I would not recommend eating here.

Celiac friendly?
