What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free fried seafood (calamari, shrimp, and other battered/fried items) prepared in a gluten-free batter with many reports of dedicated GF fryers.
- Gluten-free fries and other fried sides that are described as GF.
- Gluten-free bread or dinner rolls served to the table as starters or with meals.
- Gluten-free lobster rolls (often served with a gluten-free bun or in a GF-friendly presentation).
- Gluten-free desserts (e.g., certain GF cheesecakes and GF pies) mentioned in multiple reviews.
- General note: Many items can be prepared GF and are clearly marked on the menu, with staff confirming safety at the table.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not all evidence points to a dedicated gluten-free facility; one recent report notes the fryer may not be dedicated to gluten-free. This highlights that cross-contact risk can vary by staff and exact kitchen setup.
- A few reviews call out potential cross-contact or uncertainty about certain menu items (e.g., items not clearly GF or miscommunication about gluten-free preparations). These remind diners to ask explicit questions and to seek confirmation from the kitchen when ordering.
- As with any large GF program, occasional missteps can occur, which is reflected in a small number of negative or mixed reviews.
