Update - Quinn’s was damaged by hurricane - limited options while renovating.

The manager was super accommodating. My son wanted bacon but after discussing with the chef he said it was not cooked in their kitchen and advised against it. He said they had GF burgers, chicken nuggets and French fries. They have a dedicated prep area and separate frier. He also said if my son wanted pizza or pasta they would get it for him from Pazzi’s next door.

We got to the JW and first stop was Quinn’s for fries. Too bad they don’t have a separate frier anymore, this was one of the reasons we chose the Marriot over the Hilton. Overall the food was fine but I was worried about CC the entire time and wondered aside from my bread coming out of a plastic bag, how safe my meal was. I got pick and peel shrimp, ceviche, and the grouper sammy blackened. Would eat again in a pinch but I worry it set me off for a bad start. If you are super sensitive celiacs, I would maybe stick with a salad.

Other Characteristics

• Good for lunch

My wife (celiac) and I both ate there and seemed to have had a slight reaction. They said the had a dedicated fryer but we think there was some cross contamination. Their GF fries were different from their other fries, but still a reaction. I had the sliced ribeye sandwich (which my wife took a bite of), maybe there was something they had in the ingredients we missed. Waiter said it was GF. They had GF buns, hoagies, and bread. Seems like lots of people seemed fine here. Just be smart and use caution!

Great tasting gluten free food and beverages. Dedicated fryer for delicious fries. Corn chips house made and delicious salsa and guacamole. Excellent view of the beach and sunset. Live music. Cannot say enough good about this place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Visited for dinner tonight- great location right on the beach with awesome views of the sunset. Was a warm day but there was plenty of fans and shade on the patio. Our waiter, Derek, was excellent – I ask one question about gluten-free items and he proceeded to give me a lot of information about what they could do on their menu for me. We ordered shrimp cocktail for an appetizer and their chips and guacamole, which was done in a separate fryer, he told me. I was undecided about what to order for a meal and ask his advice – he recommended the grouper sandwich which I went with – I got the gluten-free bun with it and it was excellent! My husband also had the grouper sandwich on a regular roll and he said it was delicious.

They have dedicated fryer. Gluten free buns and bread. Waiter stated they take gluten issues very seriously. They have very little listed on the menu but when talking to waiter they can do so much more!

Staff was friendly but the choices for healthy celiacs were non existent. There are a few small items on the menu, but I decided not to order anything with my family.

Celiac friendly?

No

Staff were great and knew how to handle gluten free

Celiac friendly?

Server was very helpful, several good gf choices on the menu, and there able to adjust many other menu items to be gluten free. Chips and fries made in separate gf fryer. Good experience.

No gluten free fries or buns. Soooo d it disappointing. Server has no idea. We came here because of high Find Me GF rating. Awful. My gf person is 9.

Had a couple great experiences here this week, but yesterday we ordered gluten free chicken tenders and fries, and regular ones were brought out. Luckily we knew they looked different than usual - but first time guests would have no idea. Just be careful and triple check your food is what you ordered!

The host had the chef, Tiffany, come out an speak with us. She offered not only menu items but offered to customize other meals.

Horrible experience - waiter said he could bring gluten free chips and queso. Then said the queso was not gluten free because it contained dairy. I ordered fish tacos, the fish came out pink and under cooked.

I came here due to all the good ratings in this app. and was truly disappointed. The waiter was unengaged. I had the fish tacos on corn tortillas...they had absolutely no flavor. The $14 glass of Cabernet Sauvignon was terrible. The view is nice but not worth the money.

This place is AMAZING! I am 12 so usually there are not a lot of gluten free options I like in restaurants, but Quinn's was outstanding! The waiter was so knowledgeable about being gluten free and there were so many options for me. I had the chicken nuggets with French fries and it was fantastic. They cook in a separate fryer to avoid cross contamination and you could even tell because the fries were a different color from the gluten fries.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I didn't see this listing before we came but my thoughts mirror what everyone else said. The server, Manny, was very familiar with Celiac because he fiancé has CD. He was incredible with suggestions and alternatives to the menu. This was my first visit but will not be my last! I enjoyed the fries the most since it has a dedicated fryer. You can tell because the regular fries look a lot different.

Great food and a great view also! The staff is very knowledgeable about gluten free. The fish tacos are amazing! I am extremely sensitive to any gluten and I felt fine. Highly recommended this restaurant!

Huge selection of gluten free menu items. Excellent location & service. Try the BBQ Brisket Tacos, they're amazing!!

Love Quinn's! They definitely "get" gluten-free here! I had the fish tacos with sweet potato fries-all GF. They do have a dedicated fryer for us. Waiter was knowledgeable about GF. Be sure to have your parking ticket validated by waiter if you park in lot across from the Marriott so you only pay $2.50. I'll definitely go back here, maybe tomorrow ! A little pricey but live a little! Nice view, too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is awesome, great views and great food. I got the octopus lettuce wraps without cilantro and a side of fries which the have a dedicated fryer for and both were excellent, so good that we returned the next day for the same dish!

Good food separate fryer. Almost everything on menu can be done gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Waiter very helpful and knowledgeable about gluten free. Had brisket tacos in corn tortillas . Very good. They use separate fryer for gluten free.

Many gluten free options. Burger was tasty. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the fire thrower at sunset!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wanted to update - no GF menu but very knowledgable. Able to make adjustments to black bean burger to make GF and arugula salad is awesome. Tons of food - not cheap but they do have a flame thrower to entertain at night and dedicated cooking spaces.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Meh. Two of us had Marriott Burgers and liked them. Cuban Sandwich was so-so. Skirt steak sandwich on GF bread wasn't very tasty. Cole slaw tasted like neither cabbage nor cole slaw. Good pickles. OK fries. Huge portions. Parking is $8.00 but once validated, it's $2.50. Four sandwiches, four waters, and tip was $75.00. We don't need to go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Knowledgable and great food! Ceviche, fish tacos and spinach salad are great!

This is about my favorite restaurant! I want to go there all the time. They have great food for people who are and aren't gluten intolerant! The kids chicken nuggets are amazing. We've looked for so many good gluten-free chicken nuggets but could never find them! They even have gluten-free bread available! We are a family with some gluten intolerant people and some not. It makes it hard to go to restaurant that everyone likes but at Quinns everyones happy! Not to mention that it is right on the beach! When you are done with your meal you can go and sit right on the beach (you can also let your kids play around while you are waiting for your meal). Every year we go and we love to watch the sunset. I really recommend it!
