Legal Sea Foods

This place is fantastic! The GF rolls here taste just like I remember from a cruise ship .. so delicious and my server gave me some to take home, no upcharge. The manager came to the table and talked to me about the safe practices they have in place for allergies and then brought my food to the table. The house salad is delicious .. and most things can be prepared GF. My husband and I had the fish and chips. Looking forward to trying more things soon. Enjoy!

They have a dedicated GF fryer. Had popcorn shrimp and scallops. Waiter was very knowledgeable. Excellent food and very friendly staff. Wholeheartedly recommend.

Dedicated fryer, HOT fresh gluten free roll, and gluten free fish batter! I was in heaven to have fish and chips for the first time in ages! They have several gluten free options and take it seriously. I’ve eaten here twice now and both times, the manager has brought out my food and specified that it was gluten free and monitored for zero cross-contamination. There’s definitely good reason that this place has so many high reviews! I love not having to question if I might get sick, they take out all the guessing so you can simply relax and enjoy! it’s one of my go-tos now when I’m in town.

I am a very sensitive.Celiac and I had a great experience here. Everything fried is GF! The lite clam chowder soup is delicious. Very attentive and helpful staff. The manager brought out my food. I can’t wait to come back!

Our server was extremely attentive. She brought out GF rolls and converted an appetizer not listed with a GF option so it would be safe for me. The manager brought out my food separately. Everything was safe and delicious!

Amazing food & amazing service. Felt completely safe eating here.

7 year old with CD had so many gluten free options!! She enjoyed appetizers, the gluten free rolls and a cheeseburger with a GF bun and fries. No signs of cc and she loved the food! Staff was very accommodating.

This restaurant is a must for Celiacs. Back in 2005 they created g-free items on their menu and the list is lengthy. I loved the fisherman's stew. The hot g-free rolls are delicious. I will definitely come back for more when I am in the area:)

Amazing!! You must try the buffalo fried shrimp appetizer! Great selections, great taste, great service!!

Amazing fried seafood, I tried the calamari, shrimp and fish. Our waiter told us that they have changed all the batter to gf so all fried items are gf. They also brought the most delicious warm rolls I've ever had. Loved my gf seafood dinner experience!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We've eaten here twice and I've ordered fried seafood & fries both times because I could!! It was really, really nice to feel safe (based on reviews here) and then to enjoy the dinner as well. Our second time the waitress wasn't as knowledgeable, but we saw & heard her confirming things with a manager to make sure she got my order correct.

Celiac friendly?

A great place to go for upscale gluten free food. I have been there many times and never had an issue.

I love it here. The food is awesome. The staff are amazing. Highly recommend.

Great experience! GF rolls, a big selection, delicious food, accommodating staff, and even desserts (try the chocolate pudding cake- best flourless cake I've EVER had)!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I'm not Celiac, just gluten sensitive...but I've dined in a lot of restaurants that claim to have gluten free offerings and let me say, this one is at the top of the pile! They offer a lot of GF options - more than many restaurants. I was able to have fried clams, which I have always loved but haven't been able to eat in years! The waitress was extremely knowledgeable about their GF process and selection, and even offered a GF roll (one of the best I've ever had). Even the dessert menu has GF options. The Belgian chocolate mousse parfait was wonderful. Will definitely visit here again!

Very attentive, careful, and aware. Dedicated GF fryers, even the beer batter is made with GF beer. Server Andrew was very helpful in answering questions about the menu.

One of the only places where we can get gluten free fish and chips, since they have dedicated fryers. Several other items on the menu are gf as well. They also bring out great gf rolls.

Fantastic find! The first person we encountered was the hostess followed by our waitress.Extremely gluten aware. Waitress even knowledgeable about condiment safety. Dedicated fryer. Dedicated gluten free menu.

Loved the GF calamari, rolls, and seafood casserole. I look forward to my next gf meal there it was all amazing.

Amazing gf fried oysters and calamari!

Excellent food, service, & selection for gluten free & celiac!

I had the option to enjoy cuisine that I thought I might have to forget such as calamari. I placed reservations for a birthday celebration via Open Table noting that there was one of our party (myself) with a gluten allergy. Upon arrival, our table was set with our menus including a real menu for celiac not just a page or a binder nor were prices left out as other places do with their allergy menus.

My full meal (appetizer, entree, & desert!) was delicious so I over indulged in foods normally off limits. There were even gluten free dinner rolls that were tasty & warm. They seemed as if they were baked on premise although I neglected to inquire. They were certainly far superior than most of the alternative beads I've encountered.

Our server as well as the rest of their staff were knowledgeable & attentive. Each of the gluten free selections were brought out separately from the regular dishes to further ensure against allergy cross contamination.

It's wonderful to be able to bookmark a nice restaurant for safe gluten free dining and not feel like an inconvenience. I will definitely be keeping this place as one of my dining options.

Very good gf options! Delicious food, love that they offer me my own warm gf rolls too. The breading on the calamari is really yummy and it's a great treat!

Food was phenomenal and the waiter was perfect with my GF food! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I am extremely sensitive to cross contamination and I didn't get the slightest bit sick. I loved it!!!

Honestly there are so many better options in Boston for seafood that I don’t think Legal is worth the money. Their calamari is heavy and not as good as 110 grill, which seems ridiculous since Legal is a seafood restaurant. The last time I went to this location they didn’t have any GF rolls or buns. The grilled seafood is mediocre and not any better than what you could just prepare at home.
