Great meal, always consistent - great gluten free gf options. In 20 years of coming to IOP, Acme always delivers! Got take out and aside from having to call in a few times to get through - meal was easy to pick up and delicious. Take out staff even helped carry out the extra bag while the place was packed. Great value for money.

Very disappointing they have gluten free crust but it’s not celiac safe due to being done in the same oven/surface so risks cross contamination.

Papi's was recommended to us by a stranger on the beach. We looked up the menu and let me say, they have THE best ALLERGY FRIENDLY, including GLUTEN and DAIRY FREE menu! (See pic.) I sent a picture to my MIL bc she hates onions! You'll understand when you see the menu! So, my bestie and I walked to dinner, and luckily we got there early so there wasn't a wait. (Get there early.) We were seated immediately by the front door. Me, being the observer that I am, noticed the total occupancy is 39 people max. Note: it is a very packed tight restaurant. Don't be afraid to get cozy! I also noticed there were 3 levels. Level 1: dining, level 2: more dining, level 3: patio bar! And then there are tables outside for some more dining. They do have bar seating as well. Weaving through tables and a high top, you'll find the restroom on the first level. Let's talk about food! The chips and guacamole were awesome! The chips are made in house and made with corn, so definitely Gluten Free! I highly recommend. If you like salt, these crispy chips are just right! My friend and I ordered the sesame seared tuna taco. I ordered mine gluten free, she ordered hers without any special requests. The size wasn't too big, in fact, they were the perfect size especially if you're going to order more than one. (Which I recommend!) I take one bite and being super distracted by the amount of people coming in, I didn't notice that my taco was on a flour tortilla. I pick up the taco for a second bite and immediately realize what I had done. I let the server know that the taco was on a flour tortilla as I rushed to the restroom. I was not upset with anyone but myself. I am so careful! I guess the people watching had me so distracted. The server said there were more restrooms upstairs, but then a gentleman exited the restroom just in time. Let me say, the GM and the servers were AMAZING and so KIND. They apologized and said they should have caught the error. I felt terrible because I should have caught the error. Some could argue that it's their job to ensure the food comes out as ordered, but cooks, chefs, servers, GMs are all human. The GM took care of everything for us, which was very kind. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this restaurant for Gluten Free, dairy free people!

Great for lunch or dinner! All of their fish dishes can be broiled. They have quite a few salads and all of their sandwiches can be made without the bun. The Salmon BLT is amazing! They do not have a dedicated fryer, so no fries or sweet potato fries if you have celiac.
