Low country boil was ok. Food is satisfactory. Stuck to obvious GF items and did fine. Average food.

Not much on the menu for gluten intolerant folks, but I was able to find something that didn't make me sick. Menu is fairly limited and there are no gluten free bread options. The shrimp and grits were pretty good.

My family had the low country boil for one, collards, and traditional salad with ranch. This was enough to feed my husband, 9 year old, and me. The boil had plenty of crab meat, the salad was fresh and tasty. The collards were not the best I’ve had but very good.

There isn’t a dedicated gluten free menu and your options are limited. I got the ribeye with fries and didn’t get sick but the staff seemed confused on the word gluten

I was so disappointed by the small number of gluten free options on their menu. But then I saw one of them was the low country boil. So fresh! So delicious! Totally killed the jealousy I had over my mother in law's plate of shrimp and grits and my husband's pot roast.

Crappy salad was the only option. 12$ for a pile of spinach. Terrible service.

I had the spinach salad. Gluten free options are listed on the menu. Mostly salads and steamed seafood, not a lot of options.

Good options for breakfast. Their omelets are cooked In separate pans if you have oil issues also. Though the staff is not as knowledgeable about the process as other places, they are so friendly, it makes up for it.
