We visited Michael’s Seafood Restaurant during a recent trip to Carolina Beach. I have Celiac Disease, so it’s really important to have somewhere safe to eat while on vacation. Michael’s blew us away!!! Not only were the meals safely prepared & clearly marked on the menus, the servers were very knowledgeable & the food was outstanding! Our server let us know that they prepared everything separately and that there were no fryers, so I even got to have some tater tots with my blackened mahi sandwich. It was so good, we went back multiple times on our trip!

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.

We ordered pick up and had high hopes. With the overall reviews being good we thought the pizza would be good. We waited 65 minutes for our order to be ready and got our pizza back home. The cheese pizza with pepperonis and bacon looked fine just odd that there was pizza sauce on top of the toppings. Then we got to the gluten free and I had hoped with such good reviews it would be good but it was burnt and rock hard. And again there was pizza sauce on top of the all the toppings not under which were not sure about. So if you have gluten restrictions I’d suggest opting for a grocery store freezer pizza

SeaWitch Cafe is a cute little spot to grab a meal close to the beach. They have live music at night which is so much fun! Unfortunately, as someone with Celiac, I did not have a great experience eating here. Our server was extremely helpful and kind, and also had celiac. He helped me make educated decisions on what to order. When the runner delivered the food, I asked to confirm if the sandwich bun I ordered was gluten free. As soon as I bit into it, I could tell it wasn’t. When we flagged the server down, he was horrified to see that it was a regular bun. It took the kitchen 2 more times to get the order right, which resulted in such a long wait time that I had to order my food to go. I did get sick from this experience. Otherwise, I’d totally recommend for folks without celiac. Good vibes and when they got the food right eventually, it was delicious. Just maybe not safe for celiacs.

The pulled pork, beach burger, sweet potato fries, and piña colada were all delicious. They even have a gluten-free bun and a great selection of yummy house made bbq sauces! Madison took great care of us on the rooftop deck. Would recommend to anyone looking for a yummy after beach bite.
