One of my few go-tos! Great gluten free bread and all menu options are marked (extensive gf options). A manager serves the food and you always know that it is safe. Designated gf fryer as well.

My favorite restaurant by far. I'm never afraid to eat here, they take gluten free very seriously. They've made all their batter gluten free so there are tons of options! Not to mention the food is delicious! :)

I have craved fried seafood since I was diagnosed with celiac disease last year. I was so excited to see that they offered gluten free battered seafood and that they take fantastic safety precautions against cross contamination. The food was delicious, they even had gluten free rolls and croutons. It may be pricey but it was totally worth it!

They do make mistakes so you have to dine a bit on your toes. I notice that when the manager is involved dinner is seamless and no mistakes are made.

Fantastic! All the fried items are GF now. Go, enjoy, eat without fear. I have celiac and I ate here twice a few weeks ago. No issues at all. Just a full tummy!! The service is superb and the fresh fish and shellfish-- just amazing. If I still lived in the area, I'd eat there all the time. Thank you, Legal Sea Foods for doing it right.

Every dish was brought out by the manager. They're very through & take good care. The rolls were a little dry & I prefer Woodman's for fried seafood, but this was convenient and fit the bill.

They do a very good job here, and take food allergies and restrictions seriously. I tell them I have Celiac, and they're usually very good about my order. They even have gf rolls. You can't miss, because they look very different than the regular rolls.

Beyond impressed! The service is stellar. They make you feel welcome and as though it is no problem whatsoever to answer all your questions about gluten and whether there is cc. They seemed really informed about avoiding cc and could answer all our questions. Everything that goes in the fryer is gf because their batter for fried stuff is gf. 

The first time we went, our meal was cutting it close to their closing time. Despite that, our server was extremely friendly in answering all our questions and the manager even came over and was very friendly, and told us about desserts he recommends, and no one rushed us. The second time, the chef even brought our food out and introduced himself and assured us that he made sure everything was allergen-free. They also have "allergy runners" that bring the food out sometimes. The second time we went, they brought us gluten free rolls on the house before the meal. 

The food was delicious. They just added sushi to their menu. They have tons of fun specialty rolls they can make gf. We got the shrimp tempura roll and the only adjustment to make it gf was that they didn't put the extra tempura "flakes" on it (the shrimp itself still comes out as tempura/ fried in batter). The other ingredients (tobiko, spicy mayo, teriyaki, avo, cucumber) came on the gf version. We also ordered cioppino - there were no adjustments to it, except for bringing out gf bread to go with it instead of the non-gf bread it usually comes with. The cheesecake even had gluten free crust and felt fresh because of the seasonal fruit. 

The only small thing is that the server might put your silverware directly on the table (it's not wrapped in a napkin), so you might need to ask not to. I also saw that you can order online for pickup or delivery, but I haven't tried that yet. The main menu is marked with what can be modified to be gf. This location is in Kendall Square.
