The Seafood Shanty

Ordered sushi as it was one of the only lunch options marked gluten free. As soon as I finished my meal I got extremely nauseous and had to get up from the table. I informed the waiter and the manager told me that the sushi was prepped in a completely GF area, which could not be true as my mom sitting next to me had gluten on her sushi roll. Would not eat here if you are celiac

Had a bit of a panic as my original choices weren’t opening until 5 pm. We ended up here based not on Fine Me GF but a Cape Cod GF guide. Choices were clearly marked. Not too many options but my daughter had a few sushi rolls, which she enjoyed. When she said GF the waiter asked if it was an allergy or not. They also brought GF soy sauce to the table.

We dined here for dinner today with a larger party of 17 -- 8 of which are kids, 10 and under. I mention the size of the party so you can get a sense of how chaotic things may have been at our table. The waitress confirmed with the manager that we could get the lobster roll GF by having it on a bed of salad instead of bread. We also ordered the Cole slaw which is GF.

When the food was brought out, there were several waitstaff to help. Our main waiter brought the lobster directly to me. However, one of the other waitstaff stacked the coleslaw with the plates of fries when was carrying and unfortunately fries landed on top so I asked to send it back.

The manager hand delivered the new coleslaw to me. And asked about the dressing on the salad (which luckily I did not touch). He said the dressing may have gluten so they ended up exchanging that plate as well. I am glad he caught it... But I wish the chef/waitstaff caught it sooner.

The lobster and coleslaw was delicious. My daughter did not get sick from eating there.

Very little gluten free options. They have things labeled gluten free that aren’t and gluten free things not labeled as such. Pls get it together seafood shanty. The Pink Panther roll was delicious, but not labeled gluten free even tho I think it was. However, I am not celiac just gluten intolerant so it was possibly a cross-contamination issue. No gf buns either.

Adequate sushi. Very little gluten free options. No gf for entrees. So not recommend.

Not a ton of gf options but the ones they had were safe. I had the shrimp cocktail and a salad with salmon and I felt fine afterwards. Good seafood!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Menu items were marked GF but were NOT gf!!! BE WARNED!!! Sushi marked gf had tempura in it and edamame was boiled with gluten dumplings even tho marked gf! If celiac AVOID!!!!

Celiac friendly?

No

Not a ton of options, but more than most places in the island, plus they have GF cider if you want a drink. The food was good and it's a nice view dining outside. Staff was knowledgeable and when they label GF they mean it for celiac, as opposed to places who put GF on the menu to tailor to fad diets.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This isn’t somewhere I would go for lunch. Very few options. The lunch menu only has a few salads, steamed lobster, and steamed vegetables in a curry sauce. The dinner menu does have more options for entrees. Overall, I’ve never had a reaction here, and the wait staff is kind.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good gluten free options, all clearly marked. I ended up sticking mostly to the raw bar and sushi menu, was glad to see that they had Tamari in clearly labeled bottles. No stressing.

Fantastic for my daughter with celiac. We ended up eating here every night of our vacation

Extremely few options. Staff not knowledgeable. Go elsewhere.

Casual dining with Great atmosphere overing looking the Edgartown harbor! Excellent selection of GF options---obviously salads, but also chicken wings to sushi to seafood dishes.
