There’s something fishy about this place…
Greetings Glutards! Ever think to yourself, “where can I get gluten free seafood dishes in the heart of center city?”. I’m sure it’s a very pressing matter that has crossed your mind at least once today. Well folks, I am here to tell you about a great little place called Seafood Unlimited.
This tiny gem is located near Rittenhouse Square on 20th street. A friend and I decided to try it one night, since it was a new restaurant to both of us. I was met by the sign below, and honestly, I didn’t expect much…
Yikes… Thank God their choice of a chef was better than their choice of graphic designers. That drunk mermaid looks like she’s asking for it…
Our server was fantastic. She was extremely helpful when I asked about any gluten free options. She told me basically just avoid anything fried and everything else could be modified to be gluten free, or already was gluten free.
I started with Manhattan clam chowder. It was delicious and had a great spice to it. Also, even though I didn’t specify I wanted “gluten free” chowder, the server kindly let the kitchen know and left off the oyster crackers from my soup. Now that’s service!
For my entrée, I stuck with one of the simply prepared fishes. You basically just select your fish, your preparation, and your sides. There server told me to avoid anything fried due to breading or non-celiac safe frying oil involved in the dishes. I chose Tilapia, prepared with tomatoes, olives, and capers, and served with rice and steamed veggies. All of it was fantastic. Everything was perfectly cooked and the flavors were great.
If you a looking for a new restaurant to try and like fresh, made to order seafood, this is a place for you. Just don’t let the creepy mermaid sign turn you off when you walk up.
Glutardedly yours,
~Tim
