Top 13 Gluten-Free American Spots to Enjoy in Ocean City

Bethany Butler

I really enjoyed my food and drink. My family was not as impressed. I had an Irish coffee with a club on a gluten-free bun. The sandwich had a huge amount of turkey, and the bacon was nice and crisp. It came with a lot of chips. I needed to ask for mayo as it only came with a small smear of Dijon. One kid had the same on a pretzel bun and enjoyed his as well, but also said his was dry and added mayo. 2 kids and my husband tried the mac and cheese. They all said it was mid. It was explained as sticky and dry. It was not creamy at all. The crab mac seemed to have cheese on the top and bottom but not the middle. One kid said they tasted the crab in the mac, and the other one said they couldn't taste it at all. She barely touched her meal, and we came in hungry! The thing that brought the rating down the most was my husband's meal. The ceasar salad did not have enough dressing to even speak on the flavor. The rack of ribs maybe had 2.5 ounces of meat. That "rack" was about as big as my husbands palm. It was one of their higher priced dishes and was totally disappointing. The barbecue sauce was an afterthought. It was smeared on and not even put back into the oven to caramelize. My husband also had some wine that he said tasted like box wine. One kid had fish and chips. I tasted the fish. I thought it was pretty good. The batter could have been lighter. The inside was a little mushy. Kid didn't really eat his meal. He had half of his dad's mac and my chips. But that worked out. My hubby was able to substitute his lacking meal. One kid had nachos. He enjoyed them and almost finished. This is from a kid who complains about nothing. A true gem in this world! All in all, for the price, we felt "mom could do better." In fact, my husband said he could do better. In all fairness, I love being in the kitchen and have about 20 years of making things from scratch, but it hurts when we spend $250 and are not satisfied. The service was great. Atmosphere was bar like. Food was only there to soak up alcohol if you had 1 too many drinks and had to beg the kitchen to turn on the fryer 30 minutes before closing.

Great little restaurant. Great food. Had a chicken taco and a chorizo taco in corn tortilla. Both excellent. Chips were great. I wasn't a fan of the salsa buy my family gobbled it doen.easy to pay with a QR code. Fun surfing vibe. Enjoyed watching surfing on the TVs. So far so good with the gluten free for my Celiac.

Absolutely delicious! So allergy friendly—my celiac partner was able to get a lobster roll, yay! Such friendly staff too and great vibes.

Gluten free options, however if you were looking for crab, almost every crab dish can not be gluten free :(

I visited Fager's Island for the first time on April 5th and dined in the fine dining area. Prior to my visit, I received a call to confirm my reservation and seating preference. During this call, I found it a bit impolite when the person mentioned that entrees were $50 or more, as I would not have made the reservation if it were beyond my budget. Upon arriving, we were seated at our table. I ordered a lemon drop martini, a house salad, and the scallops risotto from the gluten-free menu. I found all of my dishes to be delicious. The view was also very nice, and I wish I had arrived earlier to better appreciate the sunset from the top. Overall, I would likely return to this restaurant.

The Pit Beef is fantastic, tender, moist & flavorful. This is a great place to stop in for Great food. I finally tried their sandwich with grilled onions & swiss cheese, its even better. All 4 of us enjoyed terrific food & good service from someone who cares. My gluten free daughter was very pleased; wonderful place to relax right on the boardwalk

We went for lunch to beat the heat & stumbled across a true gem. They seemed understaffed as the hostess sat us and tried to take our food orders. However when we asked for fresh orange juice in our crushes the bartender was confused. Luckily one of the managers - Emmy - saw our perplexed looks and got right on making us amazing orange crushes. She even made our son a glass of fresh squeezed orange juice to drink and helped us navigate the menu as our daughter is gluten free and a pescatarian. Our daughter got beet salad with a shrimp topper as emmy said her favorite snack from the restaurant was seasoned nuts from the beet salad! Husband and i got crabcake and burgers and made our own surf and turf burgers - emmy’s response when she saw us - hey, its your dining experience! She was attentive and helpful, you could see her helping her staff with issues they were having but she didn’t forget about us! Definitely have to go when Emmy is working at dinner service because she is amazing - so i can only imagine how well she trains her staff!
