Islands Restaurant

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.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Server was somewhat knowledgeable. They had a specific GF menu but shared kitchen spaces. My husband ordered off the GF menu and the server told us she would make sure to emphasize. Husbands tacos came out on flour tortillas… they remade and manager brought them back out and apologized. Didn’t get glutened once they brought us the correct tacos though.

I would never go back here. Terrible service and little concern for gluten allergies. Yes, I know celiac is not an allergy but that is what we tell the servers to avoid confusion when we go out. They brought my Celtic daughter’s food stacked with all the normal buns. Everything touching. The waitress was rude when I mentioned the gluten allergy as well. Island’s is usually better. Steer clear of this location.

Great place to stop while traveling on the 101. Right off the freeway, lots of free parking, rapid service, large portions, friendly staff, lots of gluten free options. I get the hamburger with gluten free bun and fries. Never a problem.

The waiter was helpful about the gluten-free options and they have a separate gluten-free menu. But I got contaminated and was I’ll for the next day.

I love this place! As soon as I asked for a gluten free menu, the staff reassured me that they made everything separate from items with gluten. I got tacos, cheesy fries and a sundae, no issues at all! GF menu isn’t huge but does have nice options and dessert. Would definitely come back again!
