GF items are denoted by two asterisks** and is mostly limited to grilled seafood items and salads. I had the Grilled Sampler (shrimp and mahi-mahi) and it was some of the most fresh and flavorful seafood I’ve had. We also ordered the crab dip as an appetizer and were able to substitute the crackers for tortilla chips. I am not celiac, so for those who are you may need to inquire a bit further but I do highly recommend this place!

I had the grilled sampler. It was baked fish and shrimp with rice, veggie mix and salad. I didn't get sick. There is not a lot of GF selections.

We have eaten here several times in our Port A stay. My husband has a gluten intolerance and be has not gotten sick once. We have had a couple different wait staff that had personal experience with people with gluten allergies and they were extremely helpful

Staff has no clue about gluten free. I asked if their salad dressing was gluten free and they responded, "I don't know, is it?" I opted against the salad since they couldn't tell me for sure. I was told anything grilled was safe so I went with grilled shrimp. They couldn't tell me if the chicken broth in the rice was safe but said the potatoes were instant so they should be safe. Still unsure if I will get sick or not, so we will find out.

The staff did not know anything and didn’t even know what Gluten Free or Celiac disease was. I had just a burger patty and a side salad that they told me was gluten free and got extremely sick. I would not recommend going there especially if you have celiacs disease!
