Review


I was losing hope trying to find gluten free on the island. I took a shot at Tikis and it’s a tad confusing. On their menu there are options listed as “gluten sensitive” so I wasn’t sure if that meant I could or couldn’t have it. I told the waiter I’m celiac and asked what I could eat. He wasn’t sure so he asked the chef. I guess gluten sensitive meant I couldn’t have it? Which is confusing because it was listed next to some salads that should totally be gluten free. The waiter saw my confusion and told me he will talk the chef again. He came back and said the chef will make me something special instead. I legit almost started crying. I got some fresh salmon with green beans served on white rice. It sounds plain but it was perfect. I’m so happy the waiter went above and beyond to accommodate me and that the chef went out of his way to make me something special. Oh and the drinks were great too. I will probably eat here the rest of the trip.
