I adored everything about this place. I arrived around 9:45am and there was a bit of a line in total I waited about 25 minutes to get inside. It is helpful to look at the menus while in line and know what you want once inside the bake shop. I had the strawberry rhubarb croissant a French toast flavored ice coffee and a macaroon and ginger and molasses cookie to go. The croissant and coffee were delicious and flavorful and were perfect for my walk around town. The inside of the establishment is clean and well decorated the staff are extremely friendly and pack everything beautifully. Later in the day I had my cookies and they were flavorful the ginger and molasses was listed as gluten friendly. This is a must try place if in mystic. I wanted to see the rooftop but it was closed for a private event.

We had a great meal at the Engine Room. It was a low key Sunday evening for us. I loved my burger and the gluten free (gf) bun was great. My partner got the fish and chips and said they were delicious too.

Rosemary Desousa-Lopes

The oysters were so delicious and fresh. Gluten free scallops were flavorful. Lobster ravioli was amazing. We had a beautiful table overlooking the water.

Food and service were fantastic. I got the breakfast burrito and added a hasbrown inside of it. The thing was massive and very good. All wait staff was very nice. Coffee was great too. Classic old school diner look and feel. Glad to see they have multiple Gluten Free options + sourdough bread too.

Stephanie Amoroso

Rio Salado has great food and much of it is gluten free. The chips are made in a dedicated fryer. My daughter has celiac and traveling is always stressful but not this time!

Colleen Read

Best gluten free donut ever!!

John Carper

Great gluten-free crust. Small size only. We did takeout and it couldn't have been easier.

I had their gluten sensitive donut and it was delicious! Note it is gluten sensitive NOT gluten free so please do not try it or be careful if you have celiac or are very very sensitive/intolerant. It was delicious tasted like a vanilla cinnamon cake. I had her read me the ingredients which they have on hand in a binder if you want to see its ingredients. it is rice flour based *i am gluten intolerant/sensitive*

Jacquie Kiever

Oh my goodness I wish I could eat here everyday!! We visited here and I got the everything but the omelette and it was so delicious!!! I have a gluten allergy and they did a great job insuring I didn’t get sick!!! A smaller restaurant but definitely worth it! Beautiful view as well :) can’t wait for my next visit!

John Carper

Asian cuisine that is allergen minded! Had a Keto/Gluten Free menu that was developed alongside a nutritionist. Food was incredible! Outdoor seating was awesome and beautifully decorated.

Leslie Burby

We travel over an hour and a half (one way) to eat here. I’m Italian and GF and this food is amazing! My daughters are GF too and we all love this place! We have tried the entire menu and love everything. The chicken parm is the best I’ve ever had, you can’t even tell it’s GF and my daughters love the chicken Alfredo. The marinara sauce is so fresh you can’t even tell taste it. The staff is always excellent too. Parking lot is across the street from the Olde Mistick shops and Mystic Aquarium near the highway.

We stayed across the street & decided to try it instead of the “other” pizza place in Mystic. Our server Jessica was awesome & shared that it had been in the Hallmark movie “Mystic Christmas.” We had a white pizza, a bootlegger pizza & a 1/2 & 1/2 topping gluten-free pizza. If you have to do GF this one will make you happy!

TJ McGuckin

Food is always good with a great drink selection of wine and cocktails. Shout out to our server Trevor who was very personable and knowledgeable. He customized a bourbon drink for me that was VERY good. Their in house Gluten Free pasta is highly enjoyed too. We will be back again soon.

Gluten-free eaters, beware. I have Celiac Disease. I can’t have gluten, full stop. When I walked into Red 36, I saw a sign on the wall identifying not only the 9 major food allergies, but also the safe handling practices a kitchen should follow for each one. Great! This is a sign that tells people with intolerances that we will be taken care of here. Once seated, I told the waitress about my intolerance, and she immediately brought me a gluten-free menu. Another good sign. I ordered the gluten-free tuna burger, which (according to the gluten-free menu) is supposed to omit the bun, fries, and anything else containing gluten. When my plate came out with fries, I knew something was off. I asked the waitress, and she apologized, confirmed that the fries were not gluten-free and offered to bring me a side salad instead. Separately, I started eating the tuna, but was surprised to find (buried beneath the fish and a pile of coleslaw) crispy egg noodles. I stopped eating and again asked the waitress if my order was gluten free. She returned to the kitchen and informed me that, (1) the crispy noodles were not gluten free, (2) despite having apparently put “gluten free” on my order, the whole meal was not gluten free, (3) the same thing happened at the table next to ours, despite having notified the kitchen accordingly. So, having unknowingly eaten gluten, I now have to wait out a week or more of painful symptoms of my Celiac Disease. I expect a lot more from restaurants that purport to exercise care for people with food allergies. It’s one thing if a kitchen is not equipped to cook according to dietary restrictions—I can manage my expectations. It is quite another when a restaurant is equipped to safely serve people with intolerances, communicates this to the patrons, and then fails to do so twice in a matter of an hour. There’s a lot of trust I have to put into restaurants, and I regret doing so in this instance. I’m beyond grateful that my intolerance doesn’t send me into anaphylaxis. I hope that, wherever the breakdown happened between ordering and serving, it gets resolved before other folks with food intolerances get sick. TL;DR gluten free diners, proceed with caution.

I'm vegan and gluten free, and when I'm traveling it can be hard to find good and reasonably priced options. This place was amazing! Great selection of choices, most of the menu is vegan and gluten free or can be easily made gluten free, very reasonable prices, and absolutely delicious. I wish they were closer to where I live, I'd go there often!

Adam Holzman

The food was so good we went back the next morning. My son said they have the best gluten free French toast he's ever had. The maple chorizo skillet and Cinnamon bun pancakes are both amazing. Late edit: Earlier before we got food we mentioned to the chef my son loves his French toast and that we came back for it even though we're from out of town. Right before we left the chef came over and gave us some of the bread they use for their French toast so we could make it at home. If I could give above 5 stars I would.

Molly Chapman

stopped in for lunch with a friend, informed the server that I have Celiac and cannot have any gluten and was told they could not accommodate us at all. not even just eggs and bacon on a separate grill, apparently their kitchen is so dirty nothing is safe at this place. We ended up going across the parking lot to Andiamo, where they can make almost their whole menu gluten free.

Doug Eberle

Inventful menu, EXCELLENT staff, and an overall comfortable atmosphere. Attentive to celiac needs.

Jennifer Kuczwaj

Staff was friendly. Food was delicious. Had one of their specialty drinks and loved it. Excellent wine selection. They accommodated my gluten free needs and clearly mark the menu as to which meals can be made gluten free.

Wonderful dinner at Chapter 1. We almost did not get to go because the Open Table app said we were wait listed. Our group went from 6 to 4, so checked the app and we were able to get a table at 5:30. When we arrived at 5:15, the place only had people in the bar. It did not get "busy" until we were leaving. The manager was amazing and said ALWAYS call the restaurant if you can't get a time, there may be a chance they may be able to accommodate. Scallop Risotto was made gluten free and a 10/10. Roasted Cod was made gluten and dairy free and 10/10. Fish and Chips 10/10 * and they use* REAL* onions in the onion rings . Chapter 1 Bolognese was the only bust as no meat was seen and was lacking flavor. The chocolate dessert and cheese cake were 10/10, cocktails were great. Miranda and all other staff we interacted with were amazing. They appear to only have high top tables, so it was a little challenging for an elderly parent.

Sasha Gordon

I ordered gluten free pizza and they gave me regular. I was halfway through when I realized! Please be more careful guys. (Updating to a 4 star because they are friendly and haven’t made a mistake since. And the food is awesome. But please still be careful!)

Heath Coxall

We stopped in for lunch last Friday afternoon and had a great experience. The waitress, Lilly, was very friendly and knowledgeable. She was able to easily tell us which menu items were gluten free, which they had a good selection of. We ordered the mussels PEI with white and scallop crudo appetizers. They were both delicious. Dessert was so good, too! There was also a watermelon tequila cocktail special which was refreshing and very tasty. The atmosphere was nice and it wasn't crowded while we dined. The bridge across the canal opened up and we could easily see it from inside the restaurant. We will definitely return in the future.

We wanted to update our review since we have been back 2x now since last week. Service is great, it’s is slow because they have a full house and 2-3 people tops running around looking frantic, lost and overwhelmed. We have been lucky to catch live music each time we have came, we have also been “lucky” to catch the busiest nights and understaffed nights. When I wrote the original review I was thirsty and hungry, and I took my frustrations out on our young server. I decided to update our review once it posted and we could try it out again now that we understand all of this town is understaffed and overwhelmed. Next time we come down with our boat we will chose a better week. Everything about this place is perfect. The tap list is incredibly large. Large Cocktail books, huge portions, and gluten free options. My wife enjoyed the cheese board and the wings. I preferred the burgers over the fish tacos. The bartenders are knowledgeable friendly and funny. We have sat outside twice but we always find ourself at the bar by the end of the night for a nightcap. I was also able to compensate the bartender for the bracelets and purchase a fun t shirt for our daughter back home. We will be back before we hit the waters.

Firstly I love the decor here. It’s so cute and fun but still plenty of open space and seating lending towards practicality as well. I got two kinds of bagged tea (including London fog which is my favorite) and I ordered a small custom blend of loose leaf tea. The order forms for tea mixes are convenient to use and they got my tea ready quickly even though they were fairly busy. Lots of beautiful and gluten free macaroons. Also smelled so nice in the shop.

Son recently became gluten free and was looking for restaurant in the area that had some choices. We had BLT's and sweet potato fries. They were fantastic and would never know bread was GF. Fantastic customer service! Inside seating was very clean with a welcoming atmosphere. Will definitely come again when back in this area!

Nicki Chadwick

We stopped in during a weekend trip to Mystic, it was the best food and drinks we had while in town, as well as fantastic service. Cienna, our server was so awesome, hospitable, knowledgeable of nearby fun and of her menu, and skilled in her craft. The margaritas were the best in Mystic (and trust me, I tried most of them!) and the food was delicious. I am gluten free and they made sure to be careful with my food and I left without even a stomachache.

What a fantastic experience. We headed over on a whim after a nice afternoon at the Aquarium. There were no reservations available for the dining room but we snagged seats at the bar where the full menu is also available. We enjoyed two dozen happy hour oysters and some delicious beet deviled eggs as an appetizer. The Bartenders were just the right level of attentiveness and remembered that I have Celiacs after one discussion. As mains we had the Fluke and my BF had a small serving of the squid ink spaghetti. For dessert we shared a pavlova. Everything was perfectly prepared & plated beautifully. 10/10 Recommend.

Could use more gluten free options and gluten free desserts Rita did an excellent job serving me!!💕

Let's start off with apps, the bacon wrapped scallops were quite delicious; especially with that citrus honey maple mustard, it was the perfect blend of sweet and salty. We also got the spinach and artichoke dip with chips; the dip was very sour cream forward and underseasoned. We added salt and it definitely evened things out. My daughter got the cheese flatbread and said it was very good and my son got the Mac & Cheese, I can't say how either of those were as a person with Celiac I couldn't taste them. For my main entree I got the Grilled Scallop Platter, the scallops were cooked beautifully but the Risotto was underseasoned and a tad underdone. I didn't pick up any hint of truffle oil, and the dish could have used a little acid to round it out. I squeezed some lemon on it and that boosted up the flavor, but I wish the truffle had shown through more. My husband got the Haley Mansion Seafood Fra Diavlo in the white wine sauce. The shrimp were huge. He said the seafood was cooked perfectly and it was very flavorful, he was genuinely happy with his dish. The downside was the flies, they were swarming our table like bees; at one point we had 4 of them buzzing around us. It was frustrating, obnoxious and quite honestly a bit gross with them landing on our food. We spent most of the time swatting them away. In one of the videos you can even see them flying around our plates.

There is so much homemade goodness on their menu that half the time I can’t decide what I want first! I gravitate toward soup, which is always fantastic! They have fresh gluten-free pasta, too. Lots of options for all kinds of eaters - well done, Pasta Fresca! ❤️

Grace Bryan

Lovely people, lovely outdoor space! Thanks for having a gluten free bagel!

Abigail Souza

Homemade ice cream is to die for! And gluten free options!! 10/10 would recommend if you’re in the area and craving ice cream!

Atmosphere is lovely and the service is very friendly. They are very accommodating and eager to please. Great gluten free options. It is a bit pricey.
