Panini Grill was a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was attentive and friendly. As someone who eats gluten-free, it was such a treat to enjoy a flavorful, satisfying meal without compromise. Highly recommend!

It was nice to go on Memorial Day. Good weather so we ate outside. We had a gluten-free pizza and the wings. They have the best gluten-free pizza on Staten Island. The wings are the greatest. Why not go see a movie afterward since the theater is right next door?

I discovered the Z-Two Diner back in April 2024 after a Judas Priest concert in NJ and my buddy and I were both starving late at night when nothing else is open, especially for two guys with Celiac Disease, which means we can only eat gluten free. We drove there on the way back to Brooklyn and we both had one of the many choices of burgers on a GF bun with GF steak fries. The food to say the least was delicious and of good quality. I normally don't like diner food because the quality tends to be sub-par and typically the flavors are very bland. Since that night in April, I have been back to Z-Two almost every weekend with my family, especially since I've relocated to Staten Island. The food is still very good, the service and the staff are friendly, professional and welcoming, and the prices are very reasonable. They always have a smile on their faces and love to delight you with funny stories and small talk. The atmosphere is modern and the restaurant is clean. There's plenty of free parking in the parking lot. I highly recommend visiting the restaurant if you've never been there and try the food.

Writing as a review of the gluten-free pizza since there haven't been any for a while. I appreciate that it's an option and they can do a lot of variety with the toppings, but I really didn't care for the crust. It was extremely thin and crispy, almost like a cracker, and the edges were somewhat burnt. I got the veggie pizza and I'm not sure if the veggies watered down the pizza sauce or something but it tasted off - somewhat watered down, not very seasoned, and stronger tomato flavor. I was with some friends who had a couple regular pizzas, they tried the gluten-free and mostly agreed that it tasted quite different from the regular pizza's sauce. Service was good, restaurant was clean and I didn't have any symptoms after eating the pizza (I have Celiac) but it was not one I'd go back for. One of my friends said he liked the crust because he likes that style, but the rest of it wasn't as good.

I have been searching high and low for the best gluten free pizza on Staten Island and I think I’ve found it here! The crust is not floppy, it’s crispy and delicious. I will be ordering my gluten free pizzas from here from now on.

One of the best gluten free pizzas I’ve ever had.

Friendly staff and delicious food. I like that they have gluten free options.

Bill Vulpis

Best gluten free pizza I have had. “Real” crust ….. not like cardboard which you get at most pizzerias.

Nice place to eat dinner, staffs are friendly. Our hostess was very attentive, didn't have 2 wait 2 long for our food I ordered a grilled chicken Ceasar salad which was a nice portion, it was very good, the grilled chicken was very tender and seasoned properly , I ate the whole thing. Also the bread was really good, I'm guessing it's fresh baked . They take cash or credit. The raspberry iced tea is good too and my kids enjoyed their chicken plater meals. Nice relaxing place, would go again to try a different dish. Thanks for the free blooming onion, quite not what I expected, it tasted really good! Cheers!! TO THE LADY WHO WAS ASKING ABOUT THE GLUTEN FREE ....YES THEY HAVE A WHOLE MENU , PLEASE BE SURE TO ASK YOUR SERVER. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE I HAVE CORRECT INFO BEFORE ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION, AND THEN I COULDN'T FIND YOUR QUESTION. SORRY!

The cook came out to check if the gluten free burger is for an allergy or just a preference. So great for celiacs!

Mangia is a fantastic neighborhood restaurant. Their old fashioned Sicilian pie is my favorite and I enjoy that the friendly restaurant staff and quiet atmosphere. They have a varied menu and the restaurant service is attentive. I also appreciate they are mindful of customers who need gluten free options.

Pearl Lee

Absolutely delicious Italian pizza, pasta and entrees! There are so many pizza choices, my favorites were the grilled chicken Caesar salad and the Grandma with a sesame seed crust, soooo yummy! We shared the seafood salad with large shrimp, mussels and tender calamari and the beautiful cold cut platter. The pasta with bolognese was fabulous and so was the chicken francese. They even have gluten free pizza and pasta. Finish with cappuccino and the oh so fresh cannolis and zeppoles. Bring the entire clan as the prices are very reasonable at this wonderful family friendly restaurant.

Birria quesadillas are great, and they have gluten free tacos and quesadillas.

christina semey

Love that they have gluten free bread

Shash Man

Yummy pizza and lots of options including gluten free pizza

Sarah

Completely underwhelmed by their gluten free Sicilian pie. Firstly, it was VERY small compared to other pizzerias. Most gluten free pizzas fit the size of a small pizza box. As you can see in my photo this was a tiny pie. There was hardly any sauce and practically no flavor. Lastly, this was a premade crust and expensive at $19 for practically nothing. I can say delivery was quick, but that’s the only positive and why I’d give any stars.

Jennifer Cooper

The BEST gluten-free chicken parmigiana by far in my years so far being gluten free and it was a great portion, had leftovers!! Delicious GF appetizer, entree, dessert options. Will be back for sure can’t wait to try their GF pizza

Olivia Jane

We loved the chef today. He was hilarious and seemed like he was having just as good a time as we were! delicious food as always. and very accommodating to my gluten allergy.

This restaurant just opened a few months ago and based on my first experience, I definitely plan on being a repeat customer. I would say the food is a blend of American, Brazilian and Italian. We got the burrata (special), rib eye steak, vodka parm with a side of gluten free pasta in mushroom truffle sauce (yes, they have gluten free pasta!) and cheesecake. Everything was exquisite - the quality of ingredients is evident throughout every meal from the burrata to the entree to the cheesecake (which was made in house). Aside from the food, the service and hospitality was the best I have ever experienced. I felt like I was one of the family and that my business was genuinely appreciated. The chef even came out to thank us and asked exactly how we wanted our meals, which was wonderful because we got to customize our entrees to our specific likings. This was the best restaurant experience I have had in a while- highly recommend!

tasty family restaurant in staten island with lots of options. happily, their pho is naturally gluten free!

Gabriella Caruso

Greek Xpress Hylan Boulevard is our favorite go to!! My daughter has severe celiac disease and eats worry free from their gluten free menu options due to their cross contamination safety precautions and dedicated separate fryers. We have been customers for a year now, so this has been proven time and time again, consistently having a positive experience. Portions are plentiful, well seasoned and just overall delicious! The owner and staff members are very friendly and welcoming. Grace is a superstar and knows my daughter’s order by heart! It’s a very happy day for my family when it’s Greek Xpress day!

Brian Daniels

Everything here is delicious. Best is they make gluten free pizza!

Amanda Willis

Came here for your typical Saturday early dinner vibes was told no menu substitutions on the weekend, so I didn’t order food as I couldn’t get my regular order, so instead ordered a side of fries, another person at the table asked for a side of honey mustard was told to use the one in another plate that is on the table. My waitress was absolutely not helpful accommodating or recommending. Also the bus boys have no idea what is going on or what table the food is going to, had to get their attention after circling the area with our food to let him know it was ours. Pretty disappointing as this is typically my go to spot for nice days unsure if I will be returning again. Also had a gluten free person with our group, no other options other than salad I mean get with the times.

Mitch Martinez

We did take out option. Glad to see vegan options. I had the incredible burger with avocado, BBQ sauce and sweet potato fries. The menu has a lot of healthy options for vegans, vegetarians, gluten free, etc as well as people with a standard eating menu. Burgers, pizza, smoothies, etc. Their website is easy to use and navigate and has a good amount of variety and options. Thanks.

JEEZ!!! Who would ever think that a phenomenal restaurant such as this would exist within Staten Island. With the numerous amounts of restaurants that claim to specialize in “Italian Cuisine”, Dolce Fantasia truly brings value and meaning to those two words. The spectacular vibrant atmosphere, professional service, scrumptious varieties of dishes along with many selections of delightful deserts sets this place apart from any restaurant that exists on Staten Island, hands down. This restaurant sets extremely high standards for food and service, so much so, that inevitably some people will not be able to comprehend. Nonetheless, whether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner, Dolce Fantasia expertly serves its customers with delicious foods that’ll kick some life back into you, which some (a lot) of us need. My experience here was great and I highly recommend y’all pay a visit to this gem. P.S. The Gluten Free Chocolate Soufflé (sounds like a freaking weapon) is from beyond this planet, which by far is my favorite desert which will literally put you in a trance because it’s that damn good.

Primo: they have gluten-free pizza and were great. (If you want gluten-free pizza from here make sure you call ahead of time to confirm.) Secondo: this pizzeria appears to be always swamped and lucky to get your order in. Lastly, this is a cash only pizzeria but on the plus side they have an 🏧.

Mr.Pizza has the best cauliflower crust gluten free pizza! It was delicious.

The food is always amazing best gluten free spot for me!!!!

THIS IS NO LONGER PROJECT BRUNCH!! It’s now called Flores Brunch. It is not similar to project brunch at all. We came for the gluten free cinnamon bun pancakes and they don’t have that option. Only gluten free bread. If we knew that project brunch no longer existed we wouldn’t have driven across the island to eat sub par food that I could have made better at home. I normally do not leave reviews but this really annoyed me that it still states that Project Brunch is open at this location when it is an entirely new place. The waitress laughed in my friends face for ordering an “iced dirty chai latte” and said “I’m going to have a hard time explaining that one to the people in the back” meanwhile it was on their menu. My breakfast burrito came out with literally just eggs and bacon in it and my friend’s scrambled eggs looked like a filet of fish, it was inedible. Will not return - we only stayed because we drove so far out to go to Project Brunch. At least, my cinnamon latte and home fries were good.

Delicious, healthy Sri Lankan food. Vegetarian-friendly and Gluten free, not too much oil. Great flavors. My toddler loves it!

I've been twice now and I am obsessed with the poblano steak wrap. My friends have had the pizza and the Buffalo chicken wrap and have raved about them as well. Absolutely love that there are gluten-free and vegan options. Service is a bit a slow but it is absolutely worth it.

Review for those with any allergy to gluten: I’ve been given flour tortilla with my tacos instead of the 100% gluten free corn tortillas I asked for twice! The second time I just returned them, but the first time I trusted that I got what I asked for. Be very careful.

Stacy Stevenson

Gluten free hand tossed pizza and red velvet cake. Amazing service by all of the staff. Thank you Ungaro! The crust was so good on the regular pies and my daughter loved the gluten free. The staff were very attentive and sweet to my small children who were very tired. Another place my little celiac can eat safely. We’ll be back!!!

Gluten Free bread available, thank you so much

Came on a busy Sun lunch for 2, got seated right away. Clean, lively spot. Dim sum was main reason for visit, but they can accommodate gluten free, as my husband is celiac but enjoyed the fried rice. Staff very attentive, food comes lighting fast & piping hot. Ordered about 7 different dim sum, could not even pick a favorite, it was all so delicious! Read a previous review to be aware of upcharge.. I mentally kept tabs, and they matched it without having to discuss anything. Honest service, in our experience. Already planning what to try for next time!

Writing as a review of the gluten-free pizza since I don't see any here so far. This place has two options for gluten-free - a gluten-free cauliflower crust and a gluten-free crust. I asked what the difference was and if the server knew what kind of flour was used for the gluten-free crust, but she wasn't sure other than mentioning maybe corn (which I could see based on the slight yellow color of the crust). I had the gluten-free crust with the trio of sauces and absolutely loved it. The crust is a little bit thicker and chewier, maybe 1/4 inch thick. The sauces were very good, distinct but worked well together. I'm not normally a big fan of pesto but this was quite good. The mozzarella was under the sauces and was a very good texture. The crust was a little crunchy for my tastes, but I know I'm probably in the minority for that around this area. I have Celiac and did not have any symptoms after eating the pizza, both at the restaurant and the morning after with the leftovers I'd taken home.

Me and my friends came here for a birthday dinner and it was INCREDIBLE, they gave us an appetizer on the HOUSE that was to die for (seriously ask for their pork buns) the atmosphere was great and the UNLIMITED DRINKS FOR DINNER? BOMB!!! the service was incredible if you’re there ask for Melissa she’s like an angel on earth. Also they are super accommodating for Gluten Free/Celiac they have almost all the same options but GF which was great for members of my party. Truly a great place for bottomless drinks and family style dinner, and it’s super affordable, highly recommend
