Risotteria Melotti is such a cute spot in NYC. All of the risottos are gluten-free, which was great for dining with my Celiac girlfriend.
Inside, it’s a small but intimate space. It feels almost like you’re dining in someone’s home because the kitchen is so close by.
For my meal, I had the calcio and pepe risotto. It was delicious and extremely filling. After that, I absolutely had to have the tiramisu for dessert. I love tiramisu and this was no different. With the large portions, I could’ve shared my dessert, but my girlfriend wanted the Nutella crepe, which was also delicious.
Overall, I highly recommend coming here.
Everything on the menu can be gluten free. We had 3 GF, 2 normal, and on GF/DF girl at our table and they brought out separate bread for each restriction. Huge portion too!
Great lunch for two kids and two adults (two with Celiac). Almost entirely GF menu with GF buns and bread available. Mac n cheese, fries and salads were all great!

My celiac daughter and I always eat here at least once each visit to the city. Never had any issues issue with symptoms and she is fairly sensitive to gluten. She always gets chicken fingers and fries while I’ve enjoyed several different sandwiches/burgers. Highly recommend as a quick stop restaurant
This is a 100% GF bakery and coffee shop. I was so excited to get a cinnamon roll! I wish I had gotten a blueberry muffin to go! Next time for sure! They also have a restaurant down the street! They only take cash or AMEX so be prepared.
My first place to eat in NYC and my first time in a 100% GF restaurant. everything was so good, I got the Açaí bowl and the Classic Cheese Bread whilst my Grandmother got the Panini, she can eat gluten but said it was the best bread she’d ever had! I’d highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for bread you can chew!
I don’t say this lightly: Friedmans’ fish and chips might be the best I’ve ever had. Golden, crisp, and gluten-free without sacrificing a single ounce of flavor. The batter was perfectly light and crunchy, the fish flaky and fresh—like it dove out of the ocean and straight into the fryer with purpose. The fries? Thick-cut, hot, and seasoned just right. It’s rare to find a gluten-free dish that doesn’t feel gluten-free, but this one absolutely nailed it. I wouldn’t change a thing. 10/10, no notes.
Great options for vegan brunch. Although the vegan BLT was unexpectedly sweet, the quality of the food was excellent.i would return to try another vegan dish. Recommended for groups with various dietary needs (vegan, gluten free, nut free, etc). Service was great!
Best gluten free, refined sugar free, dairy free bakery in the world!!!!!! I get their GF sourdough bread every week and freeze it so it keeps for months. Sarah, the owner, is attentive and super sweet. She cares so much about her food and what goes into it.
we ordered coffee, bagels and cinnamon buns. The coffee was lukewarm. we asked the worker if it was possible to warm it up a little bit, and he gave us the dirtiest look and attitude ever. He did offer to remake it but made it sound like it was like a huge inconvenience (I refused). The bagels were average at best. the cinnamon buns were very dense. Overall a bad experience.
Ten years ago, I wished for a 100 percent celiac-safe, 100 percent gluten free restaurant with incredible food, nearby. (I even wished for cloth napkins.)This gem opened up and my prayers were answered. It's the perfect place for anyone wanting consistently delicious food. Risotto, arancini, and don't get me started on the tiramisu... Italian feasts, warm, sexy ambience, kind staff. The chef is a culinary wizard. It's a trip to Italy, a block from the 9th precinct.
Classic New York style diner with all the usual breakfast options. Massive portions, you would need to be hungry to finish your meal! Full GF menu, our Coeliac daughter had waffles and they were delicious, no ‘tummy’ after effects! The only slight issue we had was that the server brought all 4 plates together stacked up along his arm meaning a plate with my toast was sitting on top of my daughters GF plate, increasing the chances of cross contamination. I’d have preferred if the GF food were brought out separately. Otherwise, all was good, very friendly staff, enjoyable breakfast.
AMAZING GLUTEN FREE AND SEVERAL DAIRY FREE OPTIONS!!! The pumpkin donuts are to die for: soft, juicy, flavorful! The apple cider donuts are very very good, too (a little less flavorful than the pumpkin ones).
Shop is clean and clerks are professional.
Not sure why the music has to be so loud, but I’m only in there for a hot second, so I hope it makes the employees happy, cause they definitely deserve to be happy!!!
This place is one of the best in New York. Gluten free. Extensive menu. Superbly delicious … whether breakfast or sushi or dinner or fried chicken. They really do it great. DoorDash or dine in … I’M in. You should be too. Jay and Bailey are fabulous. Give them a raise. They remember my name and order every time. Great job yall. Keep it up.
Really enjoyed the bandeja paisa here! As a celiac it’s nice to have the gluten free guarantee even for foods I know don’t typically have gluten. Service is great and friendly. Feels like to hear Colombian Spanish, made me feel right at home.
We had an excellent dining experience at Tamarind Tribeca. The food was tasty, fresh, and exceeded my expectations. The waiters were knowledgeable and made great suggestions, especially for gluten-free dishes. The drinks were fantastic, and the atmosphere was perfect for a date night. Overall, 10/10.
I was pleasantly surprised with the gluten free BEC. It’s not dense like a regular bagel - it’s very airy - but it’s pretty solid. And for gluten free, “pretty solid” is a good review.
Gluten free bagel sandwich came out to ~$11.
It took around 5 minutes on a Monday morning.
They have lots of bagel options. Lots of cream cheese options. Snacks, desserts.
Their sandwiches (with meat or fish) are very expensive (over $20).

Friendly service, menu was family friendly- gluten free menu was available- waitstaff asked about allergens. Lots of seating, wasn’t busy when we went so service was quick.
This was an amazing place to celebrate my birthday. Everything from the Butter Service Garnish to the Caesar salad and the truffle lobster toast were phenomenal. They were very attentive to my gluten intolerance and provided a gluten free option for the bread. Excellent server. Wonderful ambiance. Highly recommend!
What a sweet bakery; the owner and workers were very kind and accommodating. Dedicated gluten free bakeries are tough to find, but this one is awesome!
