Gluten Free On Nantucket?

[luceydiana]

I'm going to nantucket next week and although we eat at home a lot on the grill I was wondering if anyone has eaten out anywhere there. I know there are no chains there.

Many restaurants on Nantucket are gluten friendly and will accommodate your needs. However, that being said, two restaurants really stood out for me during my last vacation. For a quick, delicious breakfast or lunch, The Green is the place to go. They offer gluten free rice wraps for a yummy breakfast wrap (eggs, cheese, bacon) or afternoon burrito. I was blown away that my burrito was gluten free--it was amazingly delicious. They also offer make-your-own smoothies and raw juices. So good! All of the ingredients are organic and fresh. In addition to their regular menu items, they also offer a couple gluten free pastries/baked goods that change daily. For example, a gluten-free scone or blueberry muffin (and it actually tasted like a blueberry muffin!). During my week-long trip, I visited The Green 4 times--twice for breakfast and twice for lunch.

For a nice dinner, Corazon del Mar, a tapas restaurant, is a great choice. They actually have a designated gluten-free menu--the only one I encountered on the Island. Like all nice restaurants in Nantucket, it is pricey but delicious. I recommend the Mexican Street corn (you gotta try it--creamy with great flavor) and the roadside roasted chicken. Great, gluten-free experience!

I have had great luck at the Green as well.  So fresh and yummy.  This year the Brant Point Grill at the White Elephant has started to get into the game.  I went there when my parents were in town.  I normally do not spend that kind of dough on a meal.  But I went and thought I would have to spin the wheel and hope for the best.  Super surprised when they brought me a GLUTEN FREE MENU!!  It was a smaller version of their menu with options.  Just thought I would pass it along.
