November 2, 2022. Ate the Wednesday night, all you can eat crab leg special for dinner. Our server was very knowledgeable about gluten and cross-contamination. She double checked with the chef about the crab special. The chef said do not get the corn fritter but that the crab, butter, ear of corn, and salad (w/o croutons) would be fine. I ate several plates of crab and did not get sick. Delicious!

This restaurant also had several "Gluten Friendly" items on their regular menu. I did not eat anything off the menu but would consider eating off the menu because the head chef seemed to be so engaged and knowledgeable. I will post pictures of their regular menu which notes the gluten friendly items.

They have options to make some dishes gluten-free. However, they kept saying that certain sauces were gluten free and then asking to double check, and they weren’t. My friend and I who are both gluten free had to change our order several times. I have celiacs and she has hoshimoto’s disease. Then when my friends order came they had put croutons and cheese (she can’t have either) on her salad that we’d asked them to leave off. She told them she couldn’t eat it and explained why. They brought it back to her after just trying to pick off the croutons and top layer of cheese, because underneath there was still a layer of both.

We went on a Saturday night w/ live music (extra cover charge). The atmosphere is nice both for kids & adults. A kot of the food can be made GF upon request or w/ slight changes made. We got the house salad, shrimp coktail, the bacon cheddar grilled chicken burger, & a red sangria, which were all delicious. Our server, Mary, was super accommodating & friendly & cautious about our allergies. Fries are not GF, but I subbed it for a baked potato. They also have a separate casino room & a separate arcade room for kids w/ ice cream. Most of the ice cream is also GF & egg free. The food also comes out VERY quickly! 4/5 overall.

They don't have a gluten free menu, but a lot of the items can be made gluten free. They have a gluten free soy sauce upon request. Our server, Hope, was beyond amazing talking through what I can have, and took my celiac very, very seriously. I ended up having chicken stir fry with gf soy sauce, and Titos with pineapple juice to wash it down. 😊
