Celiac. Had the Mahi Mahi. No GF menu but our waitress Natalie was very knowledgeable and made sure it was safe. It was awesome. Everyone loved the food. I would definitely go back.

Our server, Andrew, was knowledgeable about allergens and very attentive! There was not a GF menu, but he said that since everything is made from scratch, they could make a lot of dishes gluten free. He also advised that I should avoid anything fried, because the fryer is used for everything and would be a source of CC. I had the shrimp and grits after Andrew confirmed with the kitchen that it was safe. It was delicious!

The staff went above and beyond to understand my allergies and accommodate. They genuinely cared. They were willing to prepare separate non-pilaf rice and unseasoned grilled chicken for me.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. I came here for breakfast & I asked my waitress if the farmer’s omelette was gluten free. She then asked me what gluten was. I ended up just ordering two scrambled eggs due to the lack of knowledge and hopefully be safe. As the food was being carried out, the food runner touched a biscuit on one plate then touched my plate of eggs. 15 minutes after eating and I am already feeling sick.

All steamed or grilled seafood IS gluten free according to the manager. Baked potatoes, corn, boiled potatoes are gluten free. Italian, blue cheese, sesame ginger salad dressings are gluten free. Just ask the manager for any questions. It was an enjoyable meal.

i am very sensitive and i was not sick what so ever!

Well since most of it is seafood they offer mostly everything grilled. And the salads are also.

It was my first time ever coming here and the manager was very accommodating, and showed me what i could and could not have. i ended up getting the seafood salad with ranch. all gluten free. it was amazing!

The waitress was helpful in ordering gf/df/corn free. The grilled chicken breast sandwich without the bun and steamed green beans were very good. No separate allergen menu, but the staff seemed knowledgeable and very kind.

No separate GF menu but staff was willing to offer GF friendly items on the main menu. Got the shrimp platter (grilled) and substituted the fries and hush puppies for corn on the cob. Was great!

The gluten free menu is a joke. Just don't bother. Ordered steamed veggie side and it looked like frozen veggies warmed up in the microwave. Sent them back.

Ate breakfast there and staff was knowledgeable about gluten and cross contamination. No GF menu. They explained the different cooking processes so correct choices could be made.

Gluten free options include grilled seafood, baked potato, and salads (sans croutons). I asked for my shrimp platter to come without hush puppies but it was served still on the plate. Use caution

Not a lot of options. Staff not well trained on menu options. But in the end a nice piece of grouper with white rice.

Possibly the worst experience I could’ve had. Our server, Dee, was very uneducated and kept naming off things I could have but then when I questioned what fryer it was cooked it she told me the same one as everything else. The gluten-free menu is very limited and half of the item on there are labeled as gf but are breaded with normal breading and fried in the same fryer as everything else. I got a ribeye steak and baked potato and the steak was awful. Do not recommend.

Fun little beach place! They had a menu that had all gluten free items highlighted. Many things to choose from. I got the shrimp and grits which was good for a bar food place! Very busy and very crowded. My guess would be that the chance of cross contamination would be high here but I felt find afterwards.
