Rudee's on the Inlet

The meal was delicious, however, my mom (dairy, egg, wheat allergy) and I (wheat allergy) were both sick following the meal. She ordered the fresh catch grilled with vegetables without butter. I ordered the Seafood Combo with vegetables and potatoes. I was very excited to see the extensive gluten free menu. The food was great, but be aware I was very sick after eating it. There must have been cross contamination or something in the seasoning as the food I ordered should have been naturally gluten free.

Good menu, would stay away from all fried or grilled items according to server! Broiled is safer she states. Went with crab and spinach dip which was amazing! Broiled fish fresh catch of the day— plain but safe and gluten free! Didnt get sick!

They have a gluten sensitive menu with lots of choices. The server was helpful and aware of celiac and our need to be careful of cross contamination with the food. Great crab cakes. Gluten free buns for burgers. Fries are NOT gluten free. We sat outside in the fun rocking pic-nic tables and we had a great time.

We've eaten here twice now and had a nice experience both times. Indoor seating is what you'd expect from a crab house, outdoor seating is great on a sunny day. I can say all around they have good food. Some things stand out better than others. Broiled shrimp, scallops and flounder were cooked perfectly. The oysters Rockefeller was above average and I'd rate their crab cakes slightly below average. The crab cake is more like a cake with the lump crab meat sparse. I'd rate the food at a solid 4 stars and the GF awareness/options gets them the 5th.

The glider tables outside were a lot of fun, their crab dip appetizer was gluten free, AND their crab cakes!!! Little on the pricey side, but good food!

Many of their appetizers are gluten free and can be served with corn chips. I had broiled flounder which was cooked perfectly. My husband had a lobster roll which he said was delicious. Overall is was a tasty meal in a marina atmosphere.

The food and service were both good. Like most seafood places, no dedicated fryer but they were accommodating and knowledgeable. We had a good experience.

This place was a great. Felt like a little hidden gem. They have a separate GF menu, my only critique on it is the menu is like a search and find. The GF menu doesn’t describe the food, but you find it on the main menu. A lot of GF alternatives, the food was delicious, and the service was great. She was very friendly, attentive, and helpful. Definitely recommend

Ok food. Pretty spot on the water however you can tell that some major cuts have been made budget wise.

Great place to eat! They have a gluten free menu with many choices. And the waitress came and checked to make sure that my crab cake was GF! I did NOT have a issue with sickness after eating there, will definitely eat there again in the future!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ate 2 huge crabcakes that were GF. They have a GF menu. You can even get gf fried shrimp. Best crab cakes ever!

Ordered take out. I had a crab cake and baked potato. It was excellent and I did not have a reaction.

I have 7 food allergies so having several food options is rare. I had the crab cake blackened. I haven't had crab cakes in years and it was amazing.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Pleasant staff, great burgers and steak. Mom's seafood alfredo was mostly good, though she didn't like the fish part; it was dark unappealing meat. But the pasta, shrimp, and scallops were good. A bit pricey, but being by the ocean, it's to be expected. Dedicated gluten-free menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I was there pre gluten free menu...but no one I was with had food worth eating. I ordered a salad with oil and vinegar dressing and the oil was rancid. I had a tuna steak which was way over cooked.

Celiac friendly?

No

we had lunch here. I had the seafood platter and my husband had the crab complete. both were good. but for lunch the only sides were broccoli, mixed veggies and rice.

Nice atmosphere and great food.

Pleasant wait staff too

If I could give this place a negative amount of stars I would. My boyfriend had a steak and I had the crab cakes. His steak was obviously cooked before we arrived and reheated for our order. It was dried out and tasteless. My crab cakes were mush and flavorless. I've never eaten cat food but if I did I imagine what I had for dinner that night would be very close to the experience. Our "vegetable medley" was undercooked summer squash and and zucchini with canned corn thrown in. Yes, CANNED corn. Outside of the food being a complete abomination the interior was cheap and felt like a Captain D's dining room. Relatives that live near by have informed me that most people only go here for the outdoor bar and I can't imagine any other way this place could stay open if their food is what we experienced.

They do have a separate gluten free menu unlike many other places in the area but it isn't worth it. I paid $27 for my cat food cakes but we did have the staff take off the steak seeing as it was beyond the classification of "food." The staff was friendly enough and offered to comp the steak without us having to ask.

I would never ever step foot into this place again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Nice restaurant and staff. Food was delicious, however, I cannot be 100 percent sure that my meal was gluten free as I did not feel great afterward. Since I am not sure what caused this, I recommend Celiacs be wary and be sure to ask a lot of questions.

Celiac friendly?

No

The crab cakes are made with corn tortillas. That are indeed GF. And. WOW. My mouth is so happy. Gf menu and staff is excellent! They can make most things gf. Just ask! This is by far the most diverse menu I have seen for gf! We will be back a lot!!!!

This place was wonderful! Staff very helpful with questions. The ambience cannot be beat!! Outdoor dock seating with rocking gliders, right on the water. So beautiful and tasty!

Have a very specific gluten free menu. Server was helpful with any kitchen questions. Food was amazing!
