Our go to spot when we visit Mystic. Appreciate the gluten free menu. Food is always delicious, this time we shared the spinach and artichoke dip with blue corn chips, shrimp and scallops risotto, and cod over spinach and potatoes with a great hard cider. Would have gotten the flourless cake for dessert if I had room but was feeling full!

Excellent. Adorable. Tasty. Loved the tuna guacamole. Set right next to the drawbridge in Mystic. A great dining experience. Servers Jordan and Ashley understood my GFDF needs and made sure my food was safe. (Someone accidentally left tomatoes on the order even though I requested none. That is the reason for 4 on safety. ). Otherwise delightful. Nice to be able to attend a quality restaurant and enjoy an evening out.

Great experience!!! After a terrible time with gluten ALL OVER my GF order at a restaurant down the street from this place a couple nights ago, this was a totally refreshing experience. They took their time, answered all the questions, double checked everything and made me feel very safe and secure about what I was eating. And, the food was AMAZING. Abby helped us and she was sweet and patient.

They have a GF menu, with plenty of choices. The food was delicious. I had the fluke with green salad and blue corn muffin. The muffin was fresh, warm and served with butter pats on the side, just like you'd receive warm bread if you could have gluten.

The lunch portion of shrimp scampi risotto was perfect. The food was fresh and tasty. I found them on this app, and was very happy with my meal.

The indoor dining room looks over the water. It was a very pleasant setting. The tables were very well spaced out for social distance dining.

The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about GF. They have a dedicated menu. The only thing the waiter didn’t know about was the vodka used in one of their very yummy martinis. Food was excellent and dessert (pot de creme) was sooo creamy.

Separate GF menu with many options. Staff seemed celiac aware food wise. Would have given 5 stars but they lose one for promoting Omission as their GF beer, which is not considered celiac safe.

Delightfully surprised by the dedicated GF (also dedicated Vegan) menu on the table so you can choose without making the special request. I personally love that so there is no need to draw attention to my diet preferences. Servers were confident, so I didn’t feel compelled to quiz them, which is a nice change. We declined bread, but the server happily stated they have GF bread, so I indulged in the warm, comforting GF bread, which is a nice and often overlooked compliment to dinner. The seafood was fresh, culinary and deliciously prepared and presented. Service was excellent. Beautifully decorated for the holidays. It is a special place that I will visit again without hesitation.

Delicious meal with several gf options. The staff was happy to help and very knowledgeable. The restaurant is in a pretty place and we had a great view from our table. I’m celiac and am pretty sensitive to cross contamination. I’m posting this review the day after dining there as I wanted to make sure that I didn’t have a reaction to the meal.

Over priced, got glutened by a salad that had no obvious signs of issue and was on the "gluten free" menu. Oysters are always okay as they are raw, but they serve then with malt vinegar on the side and if that should spill...not sure cocktail sauce is ever safe. Maybe okay for those of you who are "gluten intolerant".

Was pleasantly surprised. The wait on a Friday evening for 4 was only 25 minutes (even though they said 35-40). I had a salad and cod and my non-GF family also enjoyed their meals. The waiter was great and brought a yummy GF roll for me (which was really more of a corn muffin). This is a nicer fairly expensive place, but the food and views were great. Just be warned that parking in downtown Mystic is tough -- the lot is extremely inadequate, so you're most likely going to have to park several blocks away.

My husband and I went to celebrate our one year anniversary at Foxwoods and decided to venture around Mystic. It had great reviews so we gave it a try. Our waitress was absolutely wonderful and made it a night to remember. We had the Prince Edward Island Mussels and Mediterranean calamari without the breadcrumbs or flour. They made the calamari so tender. It was fantastic. My husband had the Island Salmon and I had the Shrimp Scampi which was delicious and fresh and not overcooked.We finished the night with some Cabernet Sauvignon and Creme Brulee. If we are in the area again, we will definitely be visiting again. Great experience!

The jumbo shrimp scampi risotto was phenomenal! S&P has a varied GF menu with options for each course. Be aware that the GF roll is more like a muffin. The staff says they are careful about cross contamination (changing boards, gloves, towels etc., but to be certain to emphasize that you are "allergic" to gluten, especially during the summer time due to the volume they serve.
