They have dedicated fryers and are well versed in Celiac protocol. I had the fried shrimps and it was amazing. Highly recommend it!!! Staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I just loved it!!!!
It was just okay. The coolest part was definitely the free games to play while waiting for lunch. However, even with those, I wouldn't go back because it was just okay.
We have food allergies. I was surprised to learn the gluten-free pizza crust has cheese. The server was a little snoody when she told me that all cauliflower pizza crusts do because she was so confident and so wrong. I've been gluten free for 11 years and have a child who could not have dairy for several of those years. I've read ingredients on pizzas myself and also have spoken to chefs at restaurants. Never have I seen dairy in the crust before so I really did not appreciate being talked down to like that. Otherwise the service was decent.
The pizzas were just average though. They were a little overdone, and the sauce was pretty "meh." There are much better options around that I would recommend checking out instead.
Gorgeous outdoor dining right on the Beach. Many gluten free options. Very popular place.
Unique covered tables out on the beach that are actually gliders - difficult to describe but awesome. We ate under the massive Tiki roof.
The Square Grouper leans into its quirky Keys history with a fun, drug trade-era theme that gives the whole place a bit of an edge — in a good way. The upstairs bar is lively and well-run, and we appreciated the good conversation and service from the bartender.
The menu upstairs is small, and gluten-free options are limited. It was a bit frustrating that they couldn’t bring food up from the main restaurant below. That said, we did head downstairs for dinner and had a solid meal. The wine list was especially impressive, and everything felt curated for a more upscale experience.
It’s definitely on the pricier side, but if you’re looking to splurge on a night out with some character and a great drink in hand, the Square Grouper delivers.

I visited both the Islamorada and Key West locations, and as a soy and gluten-free diner, I enjoyed their pork tacos and naked Kobe beef burrito, respectively, without any issues. Thank you!
Are safely as gluten and coeliac, the waitress was so helpful and gave me lots of advice and knew exactly what coeliac was etc, the food was ok the bun my fish burger came in was very dry and I opted for coleslaw for a side which was barely any as I could have chips, so food was ok, but the main thing was it was safe and the waitress was brilliant in making me feel relaxed and confident to eat there
Shasta was an unbelievable server! She went above and beyond to make sure our friend with Celiac was taken care. Her kindness and upbeat demeanor was infectious!! I highly recommend this place! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
Awesome happy hour unitil 7pm
Amazing food from start to finish. The chef was very accommodating to our Gluten and Dairy allergies. Everything made was spectacular. 5 stars. Our waitress Sandra is a rock star as well. 5 stars for her too. Bravo!!
We absolutely loved this place. Very memorable experience. The manager was our server because the restaurant was busy due to an event. She took fantastic care of us and we had the best meal we've had yet. Everything from the drinks to the desert was superb. Thank you for such a wonderful experience we won't forget! Also restaurant is celiac friendly and has great gluten free offerings.
Best food we had in all of our trip to the Keys! We went to a lot of good places, but this was our favorite! Fantastic fantastic food. Great service! Our waiter was wonderful, and knew how to help me with my gluten free needs. Atmosphere was so fun, and playful! They made my husband feel so special as we were celebrating his birthday. We had 4 young kids with us, and they had a lot of fun playing around in the side area. Just go! Don’t look for anywhere else!
Nice place.. Pricey. Good service. Knew about gluten free diet as I have Celiac's that is important. Food was pretty average though. Thought the tomato and gorgonzola salad was the best thing I had. Was husband's Birthday so they gave him a free desert and it was gluten free so I could eat it too! Nice folks. I am fine with spicy food but their shrimp cocktail was actually clearing my sinuses. OY way to much horseradish in that. I also had a special.. Fish oscar??? Gf version... Had hollandaise sauce on it... Was not good.
The place looks not at all on the outside like it does on the inside btw. It is a popular place so might need reservations depending on when you go.
Had an amazing time here! I had been all up and down the Keys for a week and this was my last meal on the way to the airport. It was absolutely amazing! The skillets were phenomenal and as a bonus, gluten free. Loved their bottomless mimosas, views of the water and the amazing service. Can’t wait to come back again in the future.
Celiac friendly
