celiac/gf friendly!!

The smell of the cooking pizza is wonderful. We had one traditional crust and one gluten free. GF is small thin crust - ok but waited 20+ minutes and it was literally cold. Traditional crust was all that you would hope for! Excellent crust and yeast flavor. Almost Wish I glutened myself to eat the regular crust - it’s that good

This is a wonderful place for celiacs . They even have gluten free French toast ! Always friendly service

We try to come here every time we visit our kids. The food and service are always the best anywhere! We love everything we've tried, but especially love the $10 Taco and blackened shrimp taco. Our grandkids are gluten free and they have gluten free soft shells and, of course the chips already are. We love the salsa, the guacamole and queso! I wish I could remember our waitress 's name, but she was so attentive and took very good care of us.

Amazing place, shout out to Charlie our amazing waitress! I love the food, the service was amazing, and the atmosphere is cool and chill. The only reason I don’t go here more often is I just wish there were more gluten free options, like gluten free cheesy bread or hoagies. I have celiac disease, and it’s hard to find restaurants with a wider selection of celiac friendly foods. They did do amazing dealing with gluten allergy though, asking me if it was an allergy or preference to keep from cross contamination if an allergy (which mine is), and asking about anything else that could possibly harm me. i.e dairy, seasoning, etc. Overall, I love this place, definitely worth it!!

I’ve never left a negative review before, but I was genuinely disappointed with our experience last night. We ordered a gluten-free meal due to a food allergy, but when it arrived, it included fried plantains, something that shouldn’t have been on the plate. We had to send the dish back, and by the time the corrected meal was brought out, the rest of the table had already finished eating. While I completely understand that remaking the dish would take time, I was surprised that there was no acknowledgment of the inconvenience or offer of compensation. Additionally, our server accidentally spilled a full glass of water across the table, which added to the disruption of the evening. Overall, it was a frustrating experience that unfortunately fell short of expectations.

Another amazing dinner at O-Ku. We never know what to order so we asked our server, Dominick to guide us through the menu and basically surprise us. He did amazing! Plate after plate of deliciousness. Such a fun evening! Plenty of labeled Gluten Free options and more options that could be altered to accommodate.

I have a gluten allergy and the staff was super accommodating. I was so impressed. The food is phenomenal, I’ve been a few times and it’s always great.

I was very happy with this place! I was pretty nervous ordering here for the first time because I have celiac disease and there is so much gluten used but the staff was knowledgeable and accommodating. I did keep it very simple because I was worried about cross contamination so I just got a plain burger with cheese and added my own condiments at home. The burger was delicious well seasoned and the bun held together nicely while I was eating it. I did not get sick and will definitely visit again. No dedicated gf fryer though. Maybe one day!

We stopped in for a quick breakfast while on vacation, and it didn’t disappoint. Our server, Cheyenne, was friendly and attentive. The best service we’ve had in Jax Beach so far! Food was delicious and there were good gluten friendly options. We will be back the next time we’re in town!

Patricia Gills

Great food, great drinks and amazing service. The goat curry and lamb meatballs were a 10/10 (and gluten free)!

Interesting place, big counter, small market, sit down tables and a separate beer bar, large menu. Make good sandwiches and have some options that satisfy dietary restrictions, e.g. i had a vegan gluten-free sandwich (Athena's Gift) with an olive salad and vegan mayo on a thinly sliced gluten free seed bread that fell apart in my hands after 2 bites but was good enough for me to go a second time and get the same thing. Most of everything has meat though, with my dietary restrictions I think there was only one more option that i could have had (but didn't). My companion had the French dip and liked it enough to order it again for the second visit. Cookies are a quite hard but big and my companion who i bought them for (i couldn't have any because gluten and dairy) seemed to like them. The place is busy so if the locals keep going back it must be consistently good and it's relatively inexpensive. I only got takeout but the people at the counter that took my order were very helpful. As a European i always chuckle at clearly American establishments that pretend to be European but this one had some goods from the old continent so alright, we'll allow it :⁠) Liked the place, liked the food, go give it a try.

My wife and I would order delivery through door dash from Carrabba's frequently. The quality of the food was delicious. The price was very reasonable for the amount of food you would get. It is much cheaper in comparison to getting spaghetti from other restraunts. The breadsticks are delicious as well. They have gluten free spaghetti which is important for my wife and it taste great!

Michael Reed

It's been 2 years, and I can't begin to say what a delight it was to find a gluten-free sub sandwich that I didn't have to make myself. Staff was friendly and welcoming, the food was delicious, and we will definitely return when we're in town again.

Sara Yun

We were so eager to try Rachel’s baked goods as gluten-free and low sugar couple that I drove 30 minutes back to the beach to native sun food market today (it was a perfect excuse to see the water again) but we tried the honey lavender cake pops, cookies and cream cake pops, and the carrot cake! They were all absolutely incredible!! She is so kind & talented. Def try out!

Michelle Case

Very cute and relaxed little beach coffee shop. We enjoyed the decor and atmosphere with abundance of things to do. There was a nice selection of pastries that even offered gluten free and vegan. The vanilla lattes were sub par - they were mostly milk with little to no vanilla flavoring. The pita sausage egg and cheese sandwich was pretty big and had a nice flavor.

Carie Murphy

Loved it here! Gluten free chips with dedicated fryer!! Lots of gluten free options. Server was amazing. Shout out to Belky! Dragonfruit refresher was amazing. Will definitely be back to try more things off the menu.

Saudah Mohamed

Absolutely amazing experience! I have a gluten allergy and the staff was knowledgeable in answering all my questions, used a clean surface for my food, and changed their gloves. They were very attentive and kind. The food was delicious, too! I can easily say that the shrimp taco was the best shrimp meal I’ve had. Thank you for a memorable experience!

Lisa Preuett

Excellent coffee shop with a variety of pastries and sweet treats! If you are looking for a place with yummy gluten free baked treats, you need to check this out! I had a blueberry muffin with icing and it was amazing! This place also has multiple sugar free syrups, which is hard to find at the average coffee shop.

Maya M

Not gluten free friendly. I had fried chicken in my gluten free wrap after I made sure they noted an allergy and highlighted it would make me sick. They did rectify the situation with a gift card, but if you are celiac I don’t recommend.

Sarah D-Knapp

Friendly staff and best gluten free pizza

Susan Boras

Wow! Chris was our server. He treated us like we were guests in his own home! His suggestions were exactly what we needed and we didn’t even know it! The shrimp app was out of this world! The ribeye was amazing, the crème brûlée and espresso martini delicious! I have a gluten allergy and felt completely safe here. I don’t live here but will return again when I’m back in town! Thanks Chris!

We have always loved Huey Magoos and use to frequent there often. However after today’s experience i wouldn’t ever recommend this shop to anyone. My roommate has an autoimmune disease and therefore has a severe allergy to gluten. They have always been great about following protocol about allergies and have never had a problem. Today, she requested the normal, glove change before prepping her food. This takes someone about 15 seconds to do at most. not a major inconvenience. The cashier mocked her. When she was waiting for her food to be made and handed out, she could hear the kitchen and FOH loudly making jokes about her allergy and once again, mocking her. When the food was finally given to her, they said “here’s your gluten free, extra gluten”. Horrible service. And the fact there was no manager there to monitor this, horrible ownership. just avoid this place.

Don't let the entrance fool you. The restaurant is nicely decorated inside. The service was good and the food was excellent. They do a great job accommodating gluten free diets. They have several secluded tables that can accommodate large parties.

A great upscale restaurant to try something new and different. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. My personal favorite was the Charred Quail. Even the drinks had a unique twist. Also easily accommodating for gluten free options. Definitely a fun place to stop when around Jacksonville Beach area.

Location: 5/5 Server Kindness: 5/5 Server Promptness: 4/5 Atmosphere: 4.5/5 Food: 4/5 Cost for quality: 3.5/5 Cost for quantity: 3/5 Explained below: The location is very cool (on the water). It’s a pretty standard seemingly upscale marina restaurant. Our server was kind and thoughtful. The employees were helpful, nice, and polite. Unfortunately, there was supposed to be live music while we were there but we didn’t hear/see it… bummer! The food is pretty average in a good way. It’s not bad but it’s not the best I’ve ever had. I’d definitely eat here again, but I’m not seeking out a time to eat here again. The salmon tasted as expected with your standard rice and broccoli. Could definitely use some more lemon/seasoning though! My husband got the clam chowder which he said tasted more like a potato soup than chowder… and he wasn’t quite sure where the clams were. I took a small taste and it wasn’t bad, but it didn’t have a bold flavor (needed lots of salt and pepper). It was definitely overpowered with strong scallions that made the whole thing taste of raw onion (which is great if you like that sort of thing, but not so great if you like a more subtle scallion taste verses the strength of straight raw onion). My husband also ordered the wedge salad. He said it tasted pretty standard for a salad- not stand out, but not bad either. Definitely delicious if you’re craving a salad! In terms of price: it’s pretty overpriced for what you get… ESPECIALLY if you order a salad. The portions seem inconsistent. For example, if you’re VERY hungry (or eat a lot like I do) and You order a salad, even with protein, you may still leave hungry afterwards. I have a huge appetite, and left satisfied after my meal (the salmon filet), but may have left unsatisfied had I been a bit more hungry. If you have a small to average appetite, then you should be fine! If you have a large appetite, you may want to consider an appetizer. Circling back to price though- protein added to a salad is quite a bit much. With salads already running in the teens, protein is an additional $$ which will run you close to, if not more than, $20+ dollars… which, for a salad, is kind of crazy! The salmon was about $26 if I’m remembering correctly. A bit pricey, but I expected it from a water front dining experience. They have great drink specials on, what appears to be, most nights! Tonight it was $6 martinis, so that was a cool option. Overall not a bad place to go, but I’m sure there are places much cheaper for just as delicious and perhaps more filling! P.S. they didn’t have gluten free substitutions, so you just have to order things that are naturally gluten free if you are avoiding gluten!

Bright and fun environment! Excellent selection of gourmet burgers. Everything was tasty. Gluten free choices

Never been to a longhorn steakhouse before but was pleasantly surprised! It indicates on the menu what foods to avoid if you have allergies or dietary restrictions. I am gluten intolerant so I ended up getting the strawberry pecan chicken salad and it was the best salad I ever had?? I don't know how a salad can be that tasty. I am small and the bowl was big. I ate the whole thing. Not ashamed of it. Also, the wings were incredible. The atmosphere, however, I could do without. It was kind of dimly lit and the taxidermy cow heads make me sad.

Best Sub shop around!! When I used to visit Jax I ALWAYS made sure to stop by Angie’s. Now that I’m finally a local I make sure to hit up my fav sub shop often. There aren’t enough words to describe how perfect Angie’s is. Whether you pick up, dine in, or enjoy a nice beach picnic with your Angie’s- I promise you won’t be disappointed. My two fav subs are the Bachlor and My Wife Kicked Me Out! Soooo good- OH &&&& they have gluten free wraps !! So any gluten free peeps (like myself) can enjoy Angie’s!!! I wish I could give them 100 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My sister who lives here in Jacksonville recommended I go to this restaurant. 🥘 There was plenty of parking in front. When I arrived I was not impressed with the space, it is definitely not a luxury restaurant, it is more of a simple restaurant, quite basic in its style and presentation. The space is not big. A very friendly Argentinian guy greeted me and helped me with any questions I had about the food I was going to order. The menu (a simple 2-sided laminate) did not show the prices. I ordered the tamale with pork, presented on the banana leaf, I couldn't say that it is the best tamale 🫔 that I ate in my life, but it was good, and the taste of the pork (inside) was delicious. The tilapia apanda with black beans and fried yucca was very fresh, the beans had good flavor and the yucca was soft and delicious, the red sauce was very good to season the fish 🐟. The Chaufa rice with shrimp was very tasty and the “lomo saltado” with white rice and French fries was very good. The truth is that it looks like homemade food with good taste. I couldn't say that it is the best sample of Peruvian food, it is definitely not gourmet (because the restaurant itself is not) but it is very good to eat. 😊. In the end, my mother ordered the alfajores and apparently she liked them a lot (I didn't try them because I've been avoiding sugar and gluten lately. Anyway, as for the portions, they were generous (there was a little left over for tomorrow 😂) so We packed all the surplus. The prices are not cheap but if you are hungry and want to eat something delicious, you could do well here. I left happy (and with a full belly ❤️). I am from Panama 🇵🇦 and I love you very much. Congratulations!

One of the best Asian food places in the recent past that I have had, the ambience and service was exceptional and to top me being a celiac I got all that I love to eat! They are the only restaurant that carries the gluten free soy sauce and accomodated all my favorite food ! Not a place to Miss in your list of dining out !

Went for an anniversary dinner. Our waiter was knowledgeable and helped me find a delicious gluten free item. It's refreshing to dine at an establishment that takes this allergen seriously!Absolutely amazing 👏

Jenny Holden

Kelsie was absolutely wonderful. She helped with all our Celiac questions and needs. The manager David went out of his way to make sure everything was safe for us to eat. The food was cooked so perfectly. We will be back every time we are in Jacksonville.
