Top 50 Gluten-Free Celiac Friendly Spots Across New York City

Missy M

The food here was delicious! So many gluten free options that were clearly marked. We had the Mac and Cheese bites, the Mac and Cheese, the sweet potato fries and the chicken wings! So nice to be able to eat almost everything on the menu. Oh and the cheese cake was delicious!!

Zaphirah Katt

Delicious!! And my friend has gluten-fee and it was really good.

Ava Weinstein

Absolutely incredible food here and very accommodating. They have a lengthy gluten free menu in addition to their regular menu. The food is delicious for those who have restrictions and those who don’t. The staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating.

Jenny Bain

I brought my visiting family here, half of whom are GF (myself included). Like everyone says, all the food is really good here! No compromises just because it’s gluten free. But what I’m really thankful for is the reservation ease. I couldn’t find the group size I needed on OpenTable, so I called and got a person immediately. Needed to call two more times to change the reservation to add someone / change time, and again to confirm they could accommodate a wheelchair 😂 I felt so high maintenance and they were SUPER nice about it. For that alone, 5 stars. Will definitely bring other people here because it’s, to me, in a “classic NYC” neighborhood and gives classy vibes for reasonable price point.

Amber Poole

Gluten free pizza!!

Craig Tramontano

Great dinner before a show at the Comedy Village. Great gluten free menu. Taste, service, value….all 5 star!!!!

Rachel Mascola

Friedman’s was a great dinner restaurant to check out, it is close to Times Square with high-quality food options, at a much more reasonable price! In addition they cater to people with dietary restrictions such as gluten free!

Blaine Alderfer

We had great service and awesome food and drinks. INCREDIBLE GLUTEN FREE SELECTION!

Erik Money

I have tried gluten-free pizzas at dozens of locations. This is the best by far. It tastes like the real deal. Friendly wait staff and cozy atmosphere. I will be back here again.

Marina Jae

We were a party of four; One foodie, one vegetarian, one gluten free and one carnivore. We were all able to find an option for our varied tastes and dietary needs. All selections were delicious and the milk shakes, which are available with milk, oat milk, soy milk, etc., were fantastic!

aurelie perrot

A great dining experience! A very warm welcome and a big thank you to the friendly French-speaking server who was kind and very professional, taking food allergies into account! It's so nice to have such a wide gluten-free selection. See you soon.

Rachel Dawes

AMAZING! This Italian restaurant was so unbelievably delicious and as someone with Celiac, this is my new favorite place! We shared the GIANT gluten free meatball and the garlic cheese bread as apps, he had the regular veal parm and he loved all of it. I had the GF chicken parm, which I haven’t had in years! Portions were enormous and it tasted so good! I will definitely return!!!

francesca pellegrini

Gluten-free chicken fingers are delicious! It's a shame I only discovered this place at the end of my holiday. Everything is delicious

Holly P

Perfect for gluten free meals! Amazing experience, beautiful atmosphere, delicious food, friendly waiter, clean bathrooms, and lovely outdoor seating with a view of NYC! I got the roasted mushroom tacos! Delicious!

Samantha P

Wow the food was amazing I have coeliac disease and find it hard to have a Chinese cuisine in the UK everything we ordered was delicious. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was lovley and calm. Happy hour was on too with a good selection of Beer, wine and cocktails we had the lychee cocktail was delicious definitely worth visiting

Celiac diner

Mel Harris

Wow delicious sandwich and Rosemary fries - Celiac friendly.

Samuel Cartes

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.

Nettie Atkisson

The service was incredible. Every single person that worked there was fantastic. Really sophisticated without being snooty. We were so impressed. The food is great too. Our entire group was happy. We were so impressed. Great food and service. Gluten free pasta available.

Ivonne H

Mac and cheese done right with gluten free options. I had the garden lite with chicken..tummy!!! Self order with many choices. Definitively coming back!!! Atmosphere is urban casual.

Bethany Bishop

Celiac friendly

Carina Fourmyle

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!

Tania Mohamed

Delicious churros! I've not had a churro since going gluten free and these were great. My partner who is not gluten free or vegan said he couldn't tell the difference. Also really good vanilla icecream!

Ian Ferrier

So accommodating. We called ahead of time for our special requests for food allergies and accessibility items. They provided a plan for us during that call and we're ready. They helped get us in seated with all accessibility items. No judgment. Inviting and welcoming for our group. Fed within a reasonable time with absolutely delicious food. The gluten free dishes that we ordered were phenomenal. Such a nice staff and amazing food.

Rina S

This is not a dedicated gf kitchen. They make pizzas and do not have separate cooking spaces. The staff is very educated and knowledgeable about allergies though.

Michelle Mulvey

The food and drinks were amazing. We had the dip sampler, Colombian ribs, fish tacos and passionfruit cheesecake. They have plenty of gluten free and vegan options. Highly recommend!

Moises Mascorro

Awesome place, especially if you are looking for Gluten Free options.

A Amado

Excellent Wagyu smash burgers. Gluten free options appreciated. Hoping there’s no cross contamination. Might need updating if celiac wife becomes symptomatic.

Tarri Klecha

The gluten free menu had a lot of options. The gluten free waffle was delicious! I have celiac and I had no ill effects!

Emmy Michelle Scott

So amazing to find so many gluten free options in Little Italy

Chris Allwardt

Amazing, gluten free organic food. The sandwiches, burgers are tasty and the fries are crispy. The service was quick and very friendly.

Shelley Henslee

Delicious!

Pilar Mejia Barrera

Their gluten free pizza is the best I have ever had!

Jessica A

Had such an amazing meal here! The food, the ambience, the service were all phenomenal. It’s definitely not easy to get a reservation, but I recommend trying your best. My family went for lunch and I was unable to join them due to work. But they raved so much we went back the next reservation we could get. The spicy rigatoni is popular for a reason, just wow. And one person at our table ordered the gluten free version which was just as good. We also ordered the chopped salad and Cesar salad which were both delicious. Additionally, I’m personally not a huge fan of carpaccio piemontese was amazing, which honestly surprised me. Will definitely return!

Following on from my review, here is a photo of the bowl of mashed potato with the shoe-string onions on still on it on the right. As I said, extremely poor from who could potentially have made me ill. Very careless. They’d do well to learn from London, Piccadilly Square’s HRC who I’d say are the best in the world, followed by Barcelona’s. Please, beware.

Esther Egwu

If I had to describe Bua Thai Ramen & Robata Grill in one word, it’d be amazing!! The food was a 10/10 and the workers were super accommodating. Halal, gluten free, and vegan options available. One of the best upper east sideWould highly recommend!!!

Vivian Ojeda

Was so happy to find gluten free and vegan options for relatively cheap! I got like 5 different things for under $15

Caroline Voegele

Absolutely loved the food and especially the gluten-free options (even gluten-free bread)! Did not disappoint and will be back

Monika Lang

The fries were very good, safe for gluten free because they only make fries. We didn't like the ambience that much because the interior is very dark.

Daniel

We’re visiting NYC and NoodleLove was a total win for our gluten-free kid! My 7-year-old with celiac loved the Korean Fried Chicken tenders — super crispy, flavorful, and completely safe. It’s rare to find gluten-free that feels this indulgent. Friendly staff, cool vibe, and a menu we’ll be dreaming about back home. Don’t miss it!

Jessi Parker

This is a hidden gem. They have fried mozzarella and amazing chicken parmesan. Daniel is the best. We will be returning for sure!

Diane Park

So happy to find a delicious Indian restaurant with lots off gluten free and vegan options

Daphne Shen

For a million dollar fried chicken investment, I am both surprised and not surprised by the quality of the dishes and the price point. Awesome decor and vibe. Service is… a bit scattered. To cut the chase, three most important things: 1️⃣ do the dinner bucket deal (no bucket for lunch) 2️⃣ the golden original is the best 3️⃣ try the green cilantro aioli (came with chicken) with the lettuce salad (part of banchan), you will thank me later We did all three flavors, and both of us agree the golden original is the best. For a gluten free fried chicken, this is insanely crispy and good: GBD, golden, brown, delicious. The chicken inside is crazy moist and juicy. The other two… I forgot their flavors but I wasn’t impressed. The sauces are: 1. Jun Verde – a creamy, citrusy green cilantroy mayo sauce. Our fav!! 2. Honey Mustard – a sweet and tangy sauce, tasted very wasabi forward. 3. Pepper Parm – savory with a peppery kick and Parmesan flavor. If you pair this with lettuce 🥗 , you get the Caesar salad. 4. Gochujang BBQ – a smoky, spicy Korean-style barbecue sauce. The most underwhelming one to my personal preferences. Chicken consommé with chives was great, both as appetizer and palate cleanser. Banchans include 1. Sweet sour radish (my Korean said it is sacrilegious not to include it with fried chicken) 2. Celery 3. Kimchi 4. Lettuce salad The perilla oil noodle it came with the set is worth noting. Even if jt costs, I would be happy paying for it. It is umami, flavorful, and cold and refreshing compared to the fried 🍗 + sauce. The finisher is a fro-yo topped with very tangy (positive way) yuzu sauce. Loved it. Came very very slow though. Definitely a steal if you can scoop a reservation and do the bucket deal. Ofc if you order other things (aka. golden bugbears etc), it won’t be much of a steal, but you get delicious food either ways.

Mama’s curry was out of control. Fresh veggies and kimchi in the coconut based dish. Everything VEGAN and GLUTEN FREE.

Great selection of vegan and gluten free dishes served up in a cozy, friendly atmosphere.

A Thoughtfully Crafted Burger Experience in the Heart of Forest Hills Bareburger in Forest Hills is far more than your average burger joint—it’s a place where quality, care, and creativity come together beautifully. The menu is impressively versatile, offering everything from classic grass-fed beef to bison, elk, and plant-based patties that don’t feel like afterthoughts. Each ingredient feels intentionally chosen, and it shows in every bite. What sets this place apart is its ability to cater to nearly every diet without sacrificing flavor. Whether you’re gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, or simply a lover of a well-made burger, Bareburger ensures you feel included—and well fed. The sweet potato fries deserve their own round of applause, and the shakes (whether dairy or plant-based) are thick, nostalgic, and satisfying. The ambiance is inviting—rustic yet modern, family-friendly yet grown-up enough for a casual date night. Staff are attentive and genuinely helpful, which goes a long way in today’s fast-casual dining scene. Yes, it’s priced a bit above your typical burger spot, but the difference in quality and experience more than justifies it. Bareburger is a Forest Hills gem—one that honors the art of the burger while embracing the values of thoughtful, sustainable dining

I come to NYC once a month for work and love trying out various vegan/gluten free spots for lunch and LOVED my experience at Pure Grit BBQ. Such a great find with so many exciting vegan/gluten free options, outdoor seating, and super welcoming and friendly staff. I even had a chance to meet the owner who gave me some great recommendations! Definitely a must try if you’re looking for a fun take on Vegan BBQ!
