Ate there on May 10, 2025
I have to avoid gluten at all costs and this place provided a great selection of safe options. The food is good and the person taking the order was friendly and knowledgeable about the gluten issue and cross contact.
Celiac Review
We are visiting from out of town & Uncle Vinny’s was recommended to us as a must try. We love pizza & they have gluten free options, so we were very excited to try it! We went on a Monday night, walked right in it wasn’t very crowded at all. It smelled delicious & was super cute on the inside. There were several tables open. The bartender seemed nice, told us someone would be right with us so we waited. After a few minutes passed she asked if it was just the four of us & if we wanted to eat inside or outside & we told her we didn’t have a preference. She went to the back came back out & said it’d be another minute. We waited probably 5-7 minutes before walking out. There were at least 3 workers gathered around the bar area at one point in time, but no one would seat us. From the vibes we were given, if you are a local, you’re good. If you’re vacationing, you fall to the back burner. We were extremely disappointed! Being someone with food allergies, it is a chore to find a safe place to eat, so it threw our entire evening off.
Counter-service bagels, which are ok. Be aware that new ownership has paradoxically decided to eliminate both vegan and gluten free options from the menu. We were disappointed since we chose this place based on a Google search that claimed they have 3 vegan schmears and “a variety of gluten free options”.
The staff is very friendly and prompt. The setting is cafeteria-like.
Our server was Oran and he was fabulous he accomodated all our needs with two small kids and an adult with celiac... Next time we are at the beach we will be sure to go back... And the food was very good and a lot of it for the price.
I have gotten Poke bowls and smoothie bowls from here with are good but it’s been a couple years since coming here and the last time I came I got the Malama smash and it was terrible, don’t recommend getting this at all. No flavor and they cut a hard boiled egg and just stick it on there like that’s edible that way instead of slicing it. Kinda seems like it’s something thrown together without taste testing it. On top of that it cost $8.50 for one piece of toast, I got gluten free which ups it I think a dollar but that’s expensive regardless for one piece of toast. At least give customers two pieces for the cost. The coffee was good but not hot at all, I'm pretty sensitive and don’t like anything too hot but even I had to microwave it when I got home. Other food I’ve had has been great but don’t get the malama toast.
We grabbed takeout from here during a beach trip. They had gluten free and vegetarian options so it worked for us. The salsa bar was really fresh and had a nice selection of options. Food was good- nothing spectacular but it was filling.
In the context of a hot dog place near the boardwalk at the beach, this place is good. Especially considering we require gluten free items Nauti Dog had us covered. The hot dog buns, the fries and even the cherry tart hard cider were all good and gluten free. The location, seating (metal seats, no padding), and atmosphere (open dining room, concrete floor) were all reminders that you were at the beach and there to chill out. Oh yeah, the food was very good.
I wouldn't recommend this place if you have a gluten allergy. They tried to accommodate my 8yo daughter but wouldn't make her anything other than a cheeseburger with a gf bun. My fish taco tasted fishy. Our drinks came out around when our bill came, and it was a stressful environment. Our waitress was delightful but overwhelmed with tables. You can park across the street, but why would you want to. Hang Ten down the street was Waaaayyy better. I'm already getting a stomach ache as I'm writing this. And our bill for two adults and one kid was $87.00, including a 20% tip.
Beautiful, delicious food. Gluten free tamari available. The Nigiri is called Sushi and the sushi rolls are what you'd expect but all is divine. Perfect for lunch or dinner by the boardwalk (which otherwise offers mostly fried/greasy type foods)
Friendly, fast service, and great recommendations for menu items (which was highly appreciated by everyone in our party). She was knowledgeable of gluten-free options/ adjustments to the menu as well. The food was very good as well. Cranberry spinach salad with an added side of shrimp-excellent! Lobster mac-n- cheese bake- very good. Crab leg plate-excellent. My son ordered the bacon cheeseburger (which they forgot to put bacon on), and they brought out a whole new burger corrected. (He ate both). He was very happy with his a well.
Delicious and quick! Mahi mahi taco was a delight with double corn tortilla so-cal style. Burritos were huge and looked delicious. Shrimp salad wonderful and a good gluten-free option without the fried tortilla bowl. Soft and hard corn tortillas are also good gluten-free options. Check with cross-contamination fryer issues. Yum!
We were extremely pleased with our food and service at this location. They were knowledgeable about accommodations for a gluten-free diet as well fortunately. I ordered the Philly cheese steak which is served on a bed of lettuce rather than in a bun (they do offer Udi gluten-free buns as well).

Stopped by yesterday for a coffee and some gluten-free pastries. The vibe was great, coffee too. The owner said her pastries were normally a hit but that she had just used a new recipe for them. Aww, you know they were super delicious too!
