Rappahannock Oyster Bar

Came here on a weeknight with coworkers during a work trip. They said the crab cake was gluten free but I’m unsure if it really was since I had digestive issues after. The shrimp were good but didn’t seem the freshest. The server was great and we had the outdoor dining area to ourselves. They had heaters but was still pretty cold so dress accordingly.

Really sorry for the 2 star rating, but I came for lunch recently, thinking that this place would be no issue for myself with dietary restrictions (gluten intolerant, pescatarian) but ended up getting served food with gluten in it and got sick. Our waitress was nice and explained that for the scallop carpaccio (which I inquired about and asked for them to double check) she didn’t “notice anything from the label” that had gluten (it was clearly normal soy sauce instead of gluten free ponzu). And explained that the kitchen hadn’t been paying attention, and that “so could read the label for the soy sauce if I wanted to”. They comped the potion of the food that they served that I ended up not being able to eat, but I still now have to deal with digestive issues for a month due to my intolerance. The food is good, but I would say that if you have any dietary restrictions probably steer clear of this place as the staff is not knowledgeable.
