Islands has always had a very small gluten-free menu. But, in recent months, they have maintained an online nutrition guide and allergen guide. Using those, I can figure out what really is gluten-free, above and beyond what the menus and servers suggest. I have used those as guidelines, and have not gotten sick.

not a big gluten free option! last year when we came the food was really good. This year not so much. They brought a big half head of lettuce bigger than my burger cause they don't Have gf buns. The fries were suppose to be seasoned in their special seasoning but had no flavor! So disappointed!!! we won't be coming back here next year when we come to town.

Not super knowledgeable about celiac, but managed with proper questions. Waitress recommended getting a burger with lettuce wrap and the fries had a dedicated fryer.

The manager came to the table and reviewed my daughter’s order to make sure it was gluten free and assured us that it would be prepared with special precautions. She ordered the nachos — cheese, chips, etc. taken from the back supply, etc. No beans due to possible gluten. Swapped spicy chicken for grilled chicken to be safe. Manager monitored order and delivered food! Couldn’t have asked for a nicer manager and/or experience!

Had an enjoyable meal. Gluten free items were marked on the menu and there was a dedicated fryer. Would definitely eat here again.

I ordered a salad with grilled chicken (marked GF). When it arrived, the chicken looked different than “safe” grilled chicken usually does. Often, restaurants will dust the chicken or pan with flour to get additional browning & crispiness on grilled chicken. I triple-checked with our server & was told that it was gluten free, including that the celiac note I’d requested. I was wary but had a few bites of the after they repeatedly reassured me. Unfortunately, I definitely was glutened :(
