They assured us they could handle gluten-free. My son ordered a filet mignon with mashed potatoes and then they proceeded to garnish it with two fried potato chips from the shared fryer.

The food was excellent. All fish could be prepared gluten free. Server and kitchen staff were very knowledgeable. I am celiac and no issues. They even brought me gluten free bread to start.

Lunch-Good reviews Unsure about safety. Came in excited to try the GF burger & fries. Upon seating I ask waitress what is GF. She said bread but no rolls. Can’t have fries or burger because shared fryer & cooktop. If you wanted fries it would take too long to cook separately. Recommended a salad. Got the Cobb with grouper (which was good) but had oil because of uncertainty. No avocado on salad either so I didn’t eat much. Iced tea came with a paper straw which I removed in case the glue contained gluten. I spoke to a man the evening prior and he assured me they were great with allergies. Fingers crossed that I will feel ok. My husband, not celiac enjoyed his burger & fries. Overall, a disappointing experience and it was a poolside restaurant at resort.

Felt very safe at this restaurant. Owner came by and said he is allergen certified and has family with allergies. Only downside is food is just ok.

The owner went out of his way to accommodate us. I contacted them in advance about my son’s celiac and the owner called me and reassured me about how they understand cross contact. They have a dedicated fryer. They bring gf bread to the table. My son had a burger on gf bun and fries. Highly recommend

Review
Loved our dinner here!! I ordered the escargot (incredible) and grouper and it was amazing. Our waitress was knowledgable about the ingredients in the food and clearly showed me what was gluten free and what wasn’t. If you have any questions just ask and clarify that you cannot eat gluten.

When you arrive, be sure to ask what gluten free items they have. They are very accommodating and will prepare the gluten free items in a safe environment. Since we are staying at this resort, we contacted them ahead of time and they asked what we wanted and purchased those items for the 2 weeks while we are here. I'm sure there are other guests who will enjoy these gluten free items as well. Highly recommended!
