Review of The Seafood Shanty

We dined here for dinner today with a larger party of 17 -- 8 of which are kids, 10 and under. I mention the size of the party so you can get a sense of how chaotic things may have been at our table. The waitress confirmed with the manager that we could get the lobster roll GF by having it on a bed of salad instead of bread. We also ordered the Cole slaw which is GF.

When the food was brought out, there were several waitstaff to help. Our main waiter brought the lobster directly to me. However, one of the other waitstaff stacked the coleslaw with the plates of fries when was carrying and unfortunately fries landed on top so I asked to send it back.

The manager hand delivered the new coleslaw to me. And asked about the dressing on the salad (which luckily I did not touch). He said the dressing may have gluten so they ended up exchanging that plate as well. I am glad he caught it... But I wish the chef/waitstaff caught it sooner.

The lobster and coleslaw was delicious. My daughter did not get sick from eating there.
