Just went here. If you’re celiac you might want to be careful. I told them I was celiac and they said the owner’s son was, and that they’d make sure my food was gf. I tested it with my Nima sensor and it found gluten. They claimed they took all proper precautions when making the food. They remade it and the second one tested gf. I guess my body will be the final word on whether or not it was safe. Update : I passed out asleep when I got back to the hotel and my head and muscles ache, I vomited and am having the other symptoms associated with me getting glutened. Thanks to this place for ruining my anniversary/birthday vacation.

The owners children have celiac and they take it very seriously. My son was able to get fried mahi mahi tacos and French fries also coconut pie for dessert. I would highly recommend. It was very good and something new to us.

Excellent GF menu selection! I had the spicy Ahi Tuna appetizer and the dinner plate Grouper with mango salsa, white rice and sweet potato fries. The sweet slaw and mango slasa with the blacked fish was a perfect flavor combo! Portion size was generous as well.

Amazing food and understand gluten free! They have a extensive menu for gluten free. It’s not a lot of substitutes but naturally gluten free.

Really good food. The owners have someone with Celiac Disease in their family. Rumor is there is a dedicated fryer just for Celiacs but I didn’t ask. Really cute restaurant and I did not get sick.

Fish tacos are awesome with the aloha fries (mixed sweet potato and regular fries). Dedicated fryer so no cross contamination!

Yes

Several options and great food. My wife is Hawaiian and loves the taste of home.

Very good food. They do not have a designated gluten free menu, but owners are very knowledgeable about gluten allergies. Owner's son is celiac, so they clean surfaces for gf. They do not have a separate fryer, but plenty of other options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Waiter and owner's son was well versed in gluten free. Went out of their way to get everything I wanted.
