Steamers Clam Bar & Grill

Our waitress was very nice but didn’t know what I meant or ask any questions when I shared that because I have celiac disease I need to eat completely gluten free, so I welcomed suggestions for plain steamed or boiled seafood options. I wound up with the steamed shrimp, which were chilled and supposed to only have old bay on them, with a water. I felt sick after we ate, and I have no idea if it was the food, cross contamination, or something else, but I wouldn’t suggest it to other folks with Celiac. Or, if you go, just stick with something from the bar instead.

We had a great waitress! She was knowledgeable about gluten free items and what she didn’t know she promptly asks the cook without hesitation! We had a window seat right by the beautiful ocean. I love the way the inside is decorated with sea shells. The food was fantastic and the waitress suggested trying grilled grouper and it was fantastic! I got the slaw with it to much vinegar for me. Fries are not gluten free they are lightly battered. I just looked over the menu and asked if items were gluten free and the waitress directed me. I didn’t ask about cross contamination.
