4.5* - This was the first time I’ve had authentic (to what I think) Venezuelan cuisine, and it didn’t disappoint!
We ordered the yucca fries, Pabellon Criolo, 2 arepas, and the soup of a day. Obviously, way too much food for 2.
I thought the yucca fries & the creamy cilantro avocado salsa/sauce was delicious. The pabellon criolo, which is the Venezuelan National Dish, was delicious. Stewed pork, rice, beans, and 3 slices of plantains. Very, very, very good!!!
The two arepas we ordered were very delicious as well. They put a lot of filling in them, so they’re a whole meal in one. Arepas are also gluten free.
Soup was alright. Not the star.
Order the Venezuelan National dish, one arepa, and maybe an appetizer… you’ll be stuffed with great food.
Absolutely amazing! They had such good food and gluten free goods to boot! Everything was so yummy that if I’m back in the area, I’ll definitely try other things on the menu
This place is a fave — it’s cute, walkable to the park, and has such a varied menu. Also, it carries such delicious gluten-free treats! I try to get a lamington slice whenever I pass by. The bev menu is extensive and the coffee is great. Honorable mention to the lavender latte, it’s def worth a try! ☕️
I have Celiac. They were so kind and accommodating. They cleaned the blender with soap and water and they checked the ingredients in the smoothie I wanted. I felt comfortable and safe ordering here. Plus it’s delicious!
My first impression about this restaurant is that it is very large and they have a very nice decoration. From the moment we arrived the attention was good and fast.
I suggest that if you want to go with a large group of people it is better to make a reservation because although the restaurant is large, many people will come to eat.
It's my turn to have the brunch menu. If you are celiac, the truth is that it is not a very extensive menu. But I suggest the eggs with cheese and homemade potatoes, they are very good. The salads we ordered were accompanied with meat and chicken as an extra.
The food has good flavor and good size. The prices are not excessive and the size of the dishes is worth it. I hope to return to this restaurant to try the lunch menu, which they start serving I think at 4-5 in the afternoon.
I give the food 4 stars because it would be perfect to have more gluten free options.
This place is amazing.
So many gluten free options and really nice drinks.
I had their wings.
I stop by this spot every time we have a job at a highrise nearby.
NYC Bagels always had gluten free bagels but they've recently changed the recipe and the new gluten free version is a DRAMATIC improvement. The gf bagels are now larger and overall have a much better texture. They have a nice chewy inside that tastes good even without toasting them. Thanks for the new and improved gf product, NYC Bagel!
This spot is the best — I love the protein shakes & fruit smoothies, as well as the owner’s commitment to the neighborhood! He listens to customers and is super knowledgeable about allergy-friendly & gluten-free options. All the ingredients are always fresh, and each visit somehow tops the last, it’s really incredible. If I could give this place more stars, I would! 🌟
Updating to add: the gluten-free granola is so good, and is kept separate to ensure no cross-contamination (AJ is the best!!!). The smoothie bowls are delicious, I can’t recommend this place enough! 💜
This café has been quietly operating for few months and it’s a hidden gem. The interior is lovely with exposed brick wall and white furniture. It looks very inviting, clean and bright. They have a small menu of drinks (coffee, tea, lattes) and a few rotating selections of baked goods which are all homemade. Apparently most, if not all of the baked goods, are gluten free. I love that the ingredients, calories, etc. are labeled and listed plainly in front of each baked item.
I tried their Match Latte ($5.50) is reasonably priced - as are all of their drinks. The latte had a great creamy texture, and you can definitely taste the matcha.
If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxed spot to work or unwind, this café is a solid option. The atmosphere is calm, they offer free Wi-Fi, and you can even call ahead to place an order for pickup. It’s definitely a great addition to the neighborhood.
Lovely coffee shop and market. The gluten free olive oil cake is delicious. They offer several milk alternatives. I tasted macadamia nut milk for the first time and loved it.
They also offer gf vegan cookies. I thought they might be dry due to no butter or sugar, but they were tasty. Personnel is friendly and fast.
