Mike Magnuson is amazing!! He made sure my gluten free needs were addressed while making sure I didn’t feel left out or different! He was super attentive and helpful, he even helped update the membership information! Definitely someone I would request in the future! He took the experience to another level! Thank you so much Mike!!

Happy hour flatbread and glass of wine for $12.50, and it was so GOOD! I have to be gluten free, and the rest of the table never knew the flatbread was GF, went back 2 days later with more people, even better than, the regular dinners were clean plates!

One of my favorite restaurants in Orlando. I have a gluten allergy and they always take wonderful care of me. Everything is delicious although I LOVE the crispy chicken. The salsa is also out of this world.

Ann Marie Cubero

Excellent food and menu choices. Separate gluten free menu, Lily's chicken with goat cheese and artichoke was amazing.

Cindy Jefcoat

Had a great time, our chef was Wee, he made my gluten-free meal amazing and was hilarious

Saltgrass is always a hit. Food is made from scratch. It's delicious. Yonathan was our server, and when I told him my daughter has celiac, he was extra concerned to keep her safe and give her a great experience. Without our asking, he went above and beyond to locate a gluten free bun to serve her bread. I thought this was so sweet.

The attention and service we received at Ocean prime by Rob our waiter was incredible. The moment we walked in, we were given the exact location that we wanted to sit, which was one of the secluded boots with the curtain that closes . It was my daughter’s birthday and we wanted a good mother daughter meal in private. Rob had great suggestions, had a great personality, and everyone that delivered our food, picked up our dishes, and continuously refilled our beverages, were friendly, and very professional, and were serious about pampering us. The food was incredible! The New York strip and the fillet Were like butter to cut. The flavors were amazing. The truffle mac & cheese was to die for, and I wanted a gluten-free option so I asked if the chef could make me a scallop potato, white truffle dish, and they gladly did! It was incredible! The manager even came over and made a mention of the creation I had asked for. Hope to see it on their menu soon! Wonderful experience, wonderful food! And our waiter Rob was incredible! Oh, and completely forgot to mention on the opposite side of the dining area, they served us the most fantastic, white truffle, popcorn! Never saw that coming! We also had the lump crab cake, and the New York strip sliders, both were incredible too! And not to miss the seven layer Care cake that we celebrated my daughters birthday with!

Ok so, I have a lot of allergies Gluten, Dairy, Wheat and they went way of there to make me special French fries and a burger with no seasonings. This place is awesome and Josh was AMAZING! Thank you so much.

The food wasn’t bad. I had the duck, but man it was salty. She has the salmon and she said it was very good. Unfortunately they DO NOT have gluten free pasta. They’ll give you some options but then you get tasteless red potatoes. NO gluten free dessert. Their smoked old fashion was very good. It’d be nicer if the waiter would leave the lid on my drink that way, I would have had time to take a cool picture.

Had a long travel day from Alberta to Florida and was looking for a good meal after checking into our hotel. Picked Bonefish because they have a separate gluten-free menu, and we were not disappointed! My spouse has gluten intolerance and a dairy allergy, and her needs were accommodated easily. She had a scallop and shrimp skewer which was seasoned and cooked perfectly, as we her sides of jasmine rice and steamed broccoli. The mango salsa was perfect. I had the mahi-mahi and shrimp with garlic mashed potatoes and spinach - everything was delicious, although the mahi-mahi was a tad dry, although the mango salsa tempered that. Our server, Kyle, was fantastic! He was friendly, personable, and very professional - an absolute pleasure to meet him. In addition, it was my wife’s birthday and Kyle offered her a desert. Unfortunately, there were no dairy and gluten-free options so her offered a discount on her main - thanks! The 3-star atmosphere was due to the rest being extremely full and a bit crowded; there was a large group next to us and servers had to squeeze sideways between our tables to get to them. All in all a great meal and a great evening. Note - after a 3 am wake up and full travel day, we were famished and dug into our meals before thinking about photos, but the food was presented as good as it tasted.

This review is based on a legit seafood restaurant sitting inside a theme park truly a hidden gem imo! step out of the busy people filled street in Florida heat into a upscale, chilled spot with a beautiful saltwater aquarium placed right in the middle of the downstairs seating. If it were not in a theme park I’d probably do 4 star. But it’s not so here’s to 5 stars! -indoor and outdoor -upstairs and down stairs -cleanest bathrooms in the park -gluten free options -don’t forget we’re talking about a restaurant in a theme park! -tuna app is fantastic -cappuccino slaps if you need one -never had a bad waiter or waitress -never had a bad meal here -never visited universal and not eaten here -located across from Dagon Alley so you can hit ice cream or butter beer right after This place will let you escape the park life just long enough to yearn for more. Whoever decided to put this in the park, BRAVO!

Restaurant is on the water at the Grand Floridian Resort. Most people were dressed neatly, but there were a few in park attire. The staff is friendly and our server was attentive. I orfered the lobster bisque for my appetizer. It was full of lobster but it could have been hotter. I had the blackened Redfish for my entree. It was light and cooked perfectly, but I think it could have been a little more flavorful since it was blackened.My wife has Celiac and most of their menu is gluten free or can be made gluten free. She was able to sample both my app and entree. She had the gluten free calamari, which was delicious. Very light and not rubbery at all. She also had the Prime NY Strip. It was cooked to perfection, although she found it to be fatty. We decided that it may have just been a bad piece of steak and will try this place again in the future.

Great service!! I have a gluten allergy, and the staff, took extra measures, to make sure my food was cooked without allergens. The food there is great, as well. Hook and Reel, is officially, my family's seafood restaurant!!!

Nice place with lots of gluten free options if you’re looking for seafood. Getting something without dairy wasn’t super hard either, they were able to accommodate my allergies without any issues. Food was delicious and the service was great as well. I had the snapper with a lemon aioli. The fish was flaky, buttery, and perfectly cooked. Portions are generous. Our server even went to get me almond milk for my coffee which was so nice. It is a pricier option, but I would say it’s worth it.

I have had a zillion breakfast 😋 experiences dining out over the past sixty plus years. I must rave about Chef Clancy.Not only were my scrambled eggs made masterfully medium soft as I prefer them, you can tell the chef is a real perfectionist. I have never had my eggs made with such care that my taste buds were dancing in my mouth, reveling in the mere taste and texture of every morsel. Kudos also to my server Bridget who was friendly professional, a breath of fresh, and a genuine pleasure to have been served by her. By the way, to any of your readers that may have any doubts about the authenticity of this review, I am a REAL person. Ok just returned for another spectacular breakfast; by the amazing chef Clancy.I guess I'm just a gluten for punishment, lol. This time I tried his oversized pancake made exactly as I like it, the edges well done and crispy..Bravo sir; just when I thought you couldn't do it, you just outdid yourself again. Lastly, I must say a few kind words about my very thoughtful server, Jasmine. She had the inate ability to read my mind, bringing things to me before I even thought about the need for them. Her ability to engage me in general conversation made for a very welcoming experience. I think you are very special & an asset to The Waterfront! Thank you Jasmine!

Here’s the deal…. If there were tablecloths on the tables they could charge 5 x as much. This is the BEST casual, high-quality dinner out you will experience. My family drove out here from Orlando after being sick of all of the overpriced, crappy chain restaurants near the parks. Boy was this worth the drive! The lobster roll was perfect and oh-so-delicious, like it was straight from the East coast. My husband had the blackened mahi sandwich that was huge, cooked perfectly, juicy and delicious. My daughter had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and because she is gluten-free they made it a lettuce wrap for her. It was super spicy and delicious. They have a great selection of beers on draft and a small selection of wine. I cannot tell you enough how much we loved this place!!!!!! Not only was the food amazing, the service was friendly and wonderful, and the place was super clean. I wish I lived here, I would be a regular.

The surf& turf was Awesome with Scallop enhancement...my husbands salmon was perfection and the crab fried rice was something to write home about. Also! The Bluepoint oysters were Awesome. I would just go back to the drawing board on the breads, the gluten free as well, always best to stick to the Least amount of ingredients, keep it simple & natural😉 Otherwise, great experience. We'll be back often.

After randomly finding it on a trip in 2020, we fell in love with Happy Snapper! Visiting again from Nashville, we came back and it was just as amazing! The owners/staff are so sweet! The chef immediately said he would make the Blue Crab Bisque gluten free! The bisque, shrimp & scallops, and blackened salmon & veggies are amazing! We will be back!
