Was an amazing experience. Food was excellent and my wife who is gluten free had the time of her life!

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!

My family and I have been dining here for a few years now and have always had a spectacular time. The service and food are above expectations, The gentlemen who normally tend to us (Max & Joshua) feel like family, they are always on top of their game and always pleasant and accommodating. My spouse has celiac and requires Gluten-free dining. Finding a healthy, Gluten-free restaurant is a challenge, although some restaurants offer Gluten-free options on their menus many can not guarantee it, and therefore a challenge. As for myself, I don't have to have Gluten-free options but because Popojitos' food options are both healthy and tasty I enjoy them. There's always something on their menu to accommodate everyone. As usual kudos to the owner for recognizing and always presenting a great menu and to the entire staff for their attentiveness to great customer service and displaying great food!! Fred & Annette

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.

NYC Treats

One of my favorite restaurants on the UES by far! The mac & cheese can be made gluten free and it's AMAZING. We also loved their roasted artichoke salad, paella, tuna tartare, and hamburger! The cozy atmosphere here is unmatched and this place is truly a hidden gem. Highly recommend making a reservation because it's definitely a popular spot

Love this place! I’m a vegetarian, and my spouse is vegetarian and has a gluten allergy, and the Red Fern was able to accommodate with no issue whatsoever. We even had our choice of bakery items to choose from, which is practically unheard of. Only downfall is the staircase to enter, so it’s not particularly accessible, but they do have plenty of outdoor seating on the ground level.

I love Cantina because they have a dedicated gluten free fryer so you can have the chips, taquitos, chicken wings etc! There are so many options I go here with my boyfriend when we want a place that has an extensive list and is delicious. Also, their happy hour menu is basically all Gluten free and a steal. BOGO margs and $5 apps like their nachos which are one of my favs!

Melissa C

Green Street is one of my favorite local eateries! The food is always fresh and delicious. They owners come up with so many creative recipes which are always gluten free and vegan. We will keep coming back to this place again and again!

Alyssa Drosnock

Such an amazing cafe with great food and service. Plenty of gluten free options.

Madison Pivonka

Good gluten free options! Good quality for the price and atmosphere

AUDRA WASSENAAR

Wonderful experience. Staff was so friendly and made the meal enjoyable. We got taquitos and the nacho flight and it was all delicious. For those looking for celiac safe, this is it. Everything on the menu is celiac friendly except the flour tortillas which are made and prepped in a separate area. The owner was so kind and we had a great time.

Kate Riddle

Nearly all GF menu and celiac safe

Amazing margaritas, food was so awesome. Highly recommend for locals and out-of-towners. Authentic Mexican food. Great service. So many gluten free options!

Abby Krysztofowicz

Casa Azul has excellent food and incredible staff. Great place for vegan and gluten free options as well!!! Such a fun place to go A+

Kelly Scott

Had Salenas delivered for dinner and it was delicious. So fresh and tasty. It was so easy to find food I could eat (gluten free dairy free) and it tastes amazing. I also love being able to order margaritas to go!! 5 stars!

Lillie Klaiman

Food and prices were great. I have celiac and they were very accommodating and helpful!

Phenomenal. Best in Buffalo. Go now. Las Puertas is a fine dining experience on the West Side, free of pretension and full of heart. The French menu series was a delight, showcasing creativity and mastery. From table candles that transformed to melted duck fat and ghee to simple salads, perfectly dressed, the experience sparked joy. I will be chasing the delight of the crawfish soup and the pear sorbet in my cooking and dining for years. From the cocktail menu, the well dressed and old fashioned was the best old fashioned I have ever tasted. On a personal note - my booking was a party of six to celebrate my elopement that day. One guest had allergies to gluten, dairy, and soy. Head chef Victor Parra Gonzalez called me directly, understanding the importance of the occasion, and confirmed the nature of these allergies. He put together a special menu for the guest in our party with allergies, with each course mirroring the fixed menu. This level of hospitality allowed us to celebrate joyously, and I am so thankful to the chef and his team. I am excited to return and see where the menu travels next, and will recommend this restaurant highly to anyone who wants an above and beyond meal and experience in Buffalo.

This restaurant had creative, unique Mexican cuisine that is mostly gluten free. My wife had the Birria Bowl and it is pure comfort food. I had the special Watermelon salad that was had elements of the Luchador Salad and Cobb Salad. Service is very friendly and helpful. Love the Luchador style.

Lauren Cahill

Fabulous food and drinks plus an amazing staff. Your water glass will never be empty and your chip basket will always be full. The staff works as a team so you never need to wait for 1 server to assist you. The service is truly at a fine dining level. Their birthday song is so fun and you leave with a full belly and some to bring home. The Margarita's are amazing and the strawberry mint mocktail was delicious. The carne asada with plantains was perfectly paired together. They even have some plain dishes for your picky eaters and a refreshing gluten free menu. The building is spotless inside and out and the patio area is beautifully tiled.

Emma Brown

Gf fryer and very celiac friendly

Abi Hall

Excellent food, lots of gluten free choices.

Harris Bleaker

Literally the best tacos I’ve ever had and I think the entire menu may be gluten free? The menu is simple and I love that. It’s one of the most reliable places I eat at. I’m celiac and I’ve never had a problem.

Isis A

Incredibly accomodating for those who need gluten free alternatives. They made sure to set my gf order separately, heating the tortillas aside and having the staff handle the food properly to avoid issues. Much appreciated! The chicken taco was pretty tasty and the tacos al pastor is a must. Very tasty add ins, such as a delicious fire roasted chile spicy condiment, as well. Be prepared for a non-sitting experience.

Nicole Swallow

Loved this place! Super friendly staff, awesome food and drinks, and tons of gluten-free options—which is such a win. Everything tasted great and the vibe was really chill. Definitely coming back next time I am in the area.

We had dinner here. The wait staff ask about any food allergies before you order. I felt very comfortable eating here. Yummy food! The guac is amazing!!

Marsha Mei

Came here on a Saturday for boozy brunch. They had a bunch of different mimosa flavors and sangria. It was fun trying different flavors. They had many gluten free and vegan food options as well. Carolyn was awesome! She was super nice and friendly!

Janine Pickwick

Excellent food. However, not safe for Celiacs. Delicious Margaritas!

My wife, girlfriend and I visited Toro of Albany last night and the experience left us all dissatisfied. The blue corn tortillas used for the gluten free application of the chicken tacos were meely and unappetizing. The 32$ enchiladas with shrimp were 90% tortilla. Each only had 1 shrimp and very little filling. For the price tag, we expected a fantastic meal and it was not delivered. The margaritas were ok but at 15$ a piece, seemed over priced. The only bright spot was our bar tender, rob I believe. He was smart, funny, knowledgeable and overall the best part of the experience. Overall I would say visit this spot for drinks and conversation only.

Jordynn Millicent

This place is absolutely enjoyable. The food was good, they had healthy options, gluten friendly. The drinks were top notch 👌🏽 the environment was packed!! The service was extremely prompt, especially when it came to the kitchen. You order on your phone through QR code or with pencil and paper. It can be separate orders/same order for the party at your table - and that got a little confusing, but other than this it was a fun outing. On your way out, grab their souvenir, a box of matches with their logo. Very cool.

Things to know: Slaw = Raw Cabbage (for texture! No Mayo. This is a good thing). Allergies = Super friendly. Clearly marked on all menu items; able to alter order for GF/DF for my wife who has Celiac. Ambiance = bomb. Music was straight passion pit and phoenix. Bob’s burgers on the TV. Chattering teeth toys hanging from the ceiling. What more can you ask for? Service = incredible. Andrea was knowledgeable, kind, helpful, and struck a great balance between making sure we had what we needed right away and leaving us be so we could enjoy our food. Her recommendations were spot on. Prices/portions = also spot on. Happy Hour = Half priced beer every day 4-7pm. It’s also not busy at all. Come here then. Creole Fish & General Tso’s Shrimp Tacos = to die for. Literally. The shrimp taco was so spicy it almost killed me. I loved every minute of it. Fly Bird = Nothing to write home about. This was my first visit and I hope I just caught them on a bad day, but I expected fresh tenders and these seemed like they were frozen/overly breaded. I’ll try again before I write it off wholesale. Redemption: the Fly Bird Custom Sauces were great and worth the extra $1.50. Try the Banana Pepper Honey Mustard. Perfect blend of sweet and spicy.

Dinner was fantastic. We had a change of dinner plans for a group of 9, and they sat us in 15 minutes. The service was excellent; our waitress took such good care of us, and we got our food quickly. We also needed gluten-free options and were very impressed with how knowledgeable the staff was in accommodating our needs. Highly recommend this place for both the service and the food quality! ---

I do love this place. The food is good, the plantains incredible and the women that work here r on top of it. I’m an avid goer and lover of this spot, however recently they have been updating their menu and the markings for what is GF and Vegan or Vegetarian are not consistent. This is a huge issue that I hope they solve. As I am annoying, I walked the waiter through all the mistakes in the menu which prompted a lovely waitress who seemed much more knowledgeable than the grumbling man I was dealing with, to come out and confirm I hadn’t been glutening myself here for 4 years. Please please I beg you fix the markings, have someone knowledgeable in dietary restrictions look over it or at least have multiple eyes on it to double check it’s consistent, because it’s super scary and incredibly annoying. Otherwise a gem, please get the plantains

It’s easy to miss this great taco spot - because it’s on a mostly residential side street, just off Broadway. Very tasty and great service. The menu says the tortillas are made with gluten free handmade nixtamal tortillas. This is the best place to get tacos and drinks in the West 90’s.

I was so excited to try Colonia Verde but sadly left very disappointed. While most of the menu is marked gluten free, for some reason they use a shared fryer. The place is beautiful, but the food is just OK. I had the mushroom tacos and the picanha, and to be honest they were just fine. Our waiter seemed a little confused around what was safe for celiac or not, which again was just disappointing given how well the menu is marked!
