Thaddeus was our server and exceeded our expectations. His knowledge of the menu and recommendations were spot on. The alligator bites appetizer was delicious, as was the jambalaya. As a result of the quality of food and hs level of service is exactly why we returned the following night. Taylor, one of the hostesses, recognized us from the night before and welcomed us back. We were in Panama City for 7 nights and ate at Pineapple Willy's four times...it was THAT good! My husband who has celiac was well cared for. He enjoyed the bucket of ribs and the grilled chicken dinner. In addition to the Jambalaya, I had the Shrimp Po' Boy...loaded with popcorn shrimp on a crusty bun....chef's kiss! I also ate the Shrimp & Grits-another tasty dish! My last evening I enjoyed the Grilled Shrimp dinner. I was thoroughly impressed with every meal I ate. Service was prompt, and food was hot and delicious when brought to the table. Staff is quick to ensure your beverages are refilled. When you go, be sure to ask for Thaddeus - you won't be disappointed in the food or the service!

Wow was it busy tonight! Nicole was our server and she was excellent and outstanding!! I would highly recommend her. We had lots of kids meals with Mac and cheese, cheeseburgers and mini corn dogs. Also the kids got kiddie size milk shakes. For the adults we got water, Shirley drink and coke. For our meals hot honey chicken, whiskey burger and avocado cheese burger. All the food was excellent. If it was not so busy I will have ordered more fries please.

The food was amazing!! I had the 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon Calvone, and it was so damn good. My lady has celiac disease, so the restaurant choices can be limited, especially pizza joints. Brick and Barley truly stepped up to provide gluten-free options, and this is by far the best GF pizza she has ever had!! Thank you, Team B&B,P!

Bradley Thomas

Absolutely loved our experience at Zollos Pizza! We tried their gluten-free cheese pizza, and it was nothing short of amazing. The crust was perfectly crispy and the cheese was deliciously gooey, making each bite a delight. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. If you're looking for a fantastic pizza option, especially for those with gluten sensitivities, Zollos is the place to go. Highly recommend! 🍕✨

They have a selection of Celiac safe food but none of it is fried as they only have one fryer. Don’t be fooled by the gluten free batter. I was so excited for calamari when the waitress said gluten free batter but then I asked about the fryer. I had the lemon garlic shrimp with gluten free bread and a salad. It was absolutely delicious, but we waited an hour for our food to be brought out and 30 minutes for our order to be taken. We had waited an hour on the table so we didn’t have much of a choice. The waitress was a little clueless about cross contamination but did go ask her manager questions she didn’t know the answer to & checked with the kitchen to make sure my food could be made Celiac safe. Maybe service would be better for lunch.

John is amazing, my sister has a gluten allergy and he made sure that she had what she needed to stay safe. Definitely allergy friendly. Great food. Again, John was the best

The choices for gluten free meals was more extensive than most. Terrific food, great service. Will go back again when in search of a good meal and good atmosphere.

Kyle Robertson

Great fast food restaurant and they have a gluten free menu for people who have celiac disease.

Kim Muller

Excellent service. Great food. So happy for the gluten free buns and dedicated fryer.

Paul Jones

Brought the family here because of gluten free menu offered. Restaurant was empty and service was slow. Food quality was disappointing.

Laura Kirby

We love this place. It was clean, staff was nice & you get a lot of food for the price. We always get the burrito bowls because we have to eat gluten free so we can't have anything with flour. The salsa & cheese dips is very good also. Hubby gets chicken bowl. We have ate at both locations & both are good. Will eat here again. It wasn't that busy but we went on a Tuesday night.

Pamela

Ms. Jennifer was an earthly angel! She went above and beyond to ensure that i was taken care of with food and drinks that were safe for me since I have celiac disease. She offered prayers and love as well for me and my health. The food was extremely delicious and we will be joining her again!! Thanks Jennifer!! Much love sweet lady...I won't ever forget you ❤

We were quite surprised since the reviews were so low, yet the food was very fresh, properly prepared, very flavorful and they have a lot of Gluten Free options. The house salad is a proper salad and not just a bowl of lettuce and tomatoes like some places. The lettuce was very crisp and fresh. It also had 1/2 a deviled egg on top, with pickled onions, cheese, cucumbers and huge slice baby bella mushrooms that were very fresh. All dressings are house made. The key lime pie is also house made and you can tell it. It is very, very good Service was excellent and friendly and bathrooms were clean.

Pizzas prepared & topped well. 2 topping lg for 8.95 was a deal ... Gluten free only comes in 12" size. First time i ever ordered GF ... pleasantly surprised!

Nicole Gause

The pizza is great! We had a regular crust and gluten free bbq chicken pizza. Both were outstanding!

Best place to go after an all day beach day if you want to want some good crab legs ! Our server was the bomb ! His name was Tyler ! Super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu ! Checked on us and updated us frequently ! Really good service and the crab as so good ! Def. Worth it ! Even if you have dietary restrictions! Tyler was knowledgeable as well regarding gluten sensitivities ! Perfect place for the whole family ! 🙂

ME MW

I really enjoyed eating here! Richard, the owner, is very kind and considerate! I am lactose and gluten intolerant and he, his daughter and restaurant family made me an amazing salad with some of the most delicious flavors! Not only that, they gave all of the mothers a fresh rose for mother's day!

Holly Johnston

Thank you Duncan was an absolute joy! Fantastic service. Attentive And knew the menu well. We are gluten free and he was very knowledgeable about the products And preparation. Thank you Duncan!

We were a party of 4, one celiac requiring gluten friendly, so based on reviews, we chose O'Brady's as they advertise gluten free fries done in a separate fryer and they do have a specific gluten free menu. Burgers being a key item of their menu we wrongly assumed they would offer gluten free buns (ok to upcharge for them) to enjoy the burgers, The evening we were there (Feb 12) they only had curly fries which are battered, not gluten free, and no gluten free bun so my great expectation of a delicious burger meal was not to be here. So I settled for the grilled shrimp, rice and broccoli. Shrimp were hot and adequate flavor at best, rice was only warm and broccoli was cold. I can not recommend. Friend ordered the burger special, specifically asked for well done, no pink. It came light pink and only warm, curly fries were barely warm. She could not eat it after one bite, sent it back and settled for nothing, appetite lost. That meal was not charged to us. Two others had the salmon and thoroughly enjoyed the salmon (gave the 2 stars) it was hot, but the rice and curly fries were just warm. Wait staff was great, but the kitchen needs some attention. Two of us wore flip flops which were sticking to the floor, time to mop it up. Our high opinion based on reviews going in were highly disappointed in reality. We will not be back.

First off, love the service fee model because tipping culture is stupid... Though we're still gonna tip cause this place is worth it. Had gluten free cauliflower White pizza and gluten free corn tortilla Mahi tacos, both delicious. Menu does not mark GF items, but staff knows what is safe or not. Shared frier, so avoid fried items.

This restaurant is by far the best sushi restaurant on the beach. It's always so fresh and delicious. They have amazing lunch specials or you can get two sushi rolls and a drink for $10.95 or you can get three sushi rolls and a drink for $13.95. During lunch you can get hibachi for $12.99 a plate. Their steak and salmon hibachi is out of this world. Cooked perfect every time. All of their sauces that come in souffle cups besides the Sriracha are homemade. They have the best crab rangoons on the beach as well. I asked and I found out that they make the crab rangoons from scratch there. This place has food for everyone. If you don't like seafood you can get steak and chicken . If you're vegetarian or vegan they have options available. If you have a gluten allergy they make things gluten free if you ask . The staff is second to none. I have been coming here since they opened 5 years ago. The reason why I keep coming back is lisa. Every time I come in she always remembers my order. And I've been coming ever since. They even deliver so you don't have to use those meal delivery services. I always recommend this place to people who come here to visit. Can't wait to eat here again!
