Amazing gluten free options! Great atmosphere:)

Best 13th Birthday celebration! We can all eat comfortably (2 of us have celiac) and everyone is happy with this delicious food! The atmosphere was great and my daughter was so happy with the streaming huge torch candle they brought out and the generous free dessert! It really was a perfect dinner!

Food is very good. Nice twist to mashed potato’s, chops cooked as ordered, tuned into gluten and allergy issues, etc. The decor is nice, more elegant than formal, but feels a little dated here and there. Service is dependent on the person, which is not uncommon. They are professional for sure no complaints but it was a bit too transactional and had gaps in timing. We certainly will be back.

We love Savoy Taproom!! We always make a point to stop in for dinner whenever we're in the neighborhood. This is a fantastic gem for gluten free/dietary restriction folks, as there is a dedicated gluten free fryer AND most breaded/fried items are breaded in non-gluten containing batters! This is one of the only places I can get a fried chicken sandwich, fries, fried cheese curds, etc. since I've gone gluten free. Further, the craft cocktails are exquisite, the staff knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind, and the ambience great for evening/weekend dining. I can't think of a more perfect place to celebrate date night, get togethers with close friends, or any special occasions.

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.

Food was great. Portions large. Prices were reasonable. Service was wonderful. Very patient with our large group. Gluten free and vegetarian options clearly labeled.

Jackie Citriniti

I have eaten several times at City Line and I also am gluten free. I have always had Wonderful service, great tasting food, make any accommodations needed, and comfortably priced!

Rich Parker

The bartender, Zoe, was very nice. I have Celiac Disease, and she let me know all my options on the menu. I didn't have time for a long sit-down meal, but I definitely will be back.

Kim Herzl-Betz

We always order ahead usually because prep can take a while. We love the bowls and waffles and that everything is gluten free. I have tried the new sandwiches and they are delicious!!

Stephanie Armon

I would say gluten friendly, not gluten free. I have celiac disease and we have eaten here twice. First experience was good! Today’s visit was unfortunate. I spoke to the staff about my food allergy, they seemed confident, and my food came out with the little allergen stick which made me feel extremely comfortable. Within minutes of eating (my delicious food) I was sick and in their bathroom for 44 minutes until I was good enough to make it home and be ill at home. I spoke to a staff member on my way out so they were aware and they were extremely kind about the situation. If you choose to be gluten free or have no food allergies, great place and delicious food! Otherwise, be aware they are not able to accommodate allergies fully. Unfortunately, my family will not be back due to me getting glutened and being ill.

The establishment is spacious, catering to sizable gatherings and familial units. A delectable cheeseburger with accompanying French fries is offered. The establishment can provide gluten-free buns for both burgers and pasta dishes.

A friend had Mission BBQ cater our party today. When we picked up the food and brought it home, we had noticed a missing item. We called them up to let them know and they were so nice and accomidating. They asked how long it would take us to return to the restaurant and had it prepped in about 10-15 min. They even provided a dessert tray and a $25 off card for the inconvenience which was truly unnecessary. This place and their staff are just absolutely lovely, so welcoming, and great with allergens! We are a big group of celiacs and had plenty of food options. I hope they get more established and stay for years to come.

I visited this place for the first time while I was running errands and needed to stop for food. Since being gluten free (intolerance not an allergy), I'm always looking for a good gluten free pizza, their website said they had it so I stopped in. Their display of pizzas ready to go was amazing and made me miss my gluten-full days immensely! Their gluten free pizzas need to be ordered as a full pie (6 cut is their smallest) and are cooked fresh with any toppings. About 15 minutes later I had my pie and it was awesome!!! Unfortunately, it does not make good left overs, which is the case with every gluten free pizza I've tried so I did not hold it against them in this review. I do not know if they have a separate oven for their gluten free pizzas, so there may be cross contamination for those with severe sensitivity. Hope this helps!

DELICIOUS!!! Love the gluten free choices. Best Mexican place I've ever been to.

Angela Kelley

Wow! This place is amazing!!! So many food options - literally something for everyone - American, Asian, Italian, Seafood, etc. It's like they said "everyone is doing small themed menus, so let's do the opposite!!!" I appreciate that they had a lot of gluten-free options. The food was great! Our server was awesome! And the ambiance was incredible! Open, airy, industrial, modern, bright and fun! Clean bathrooms and a huge bar. We will go back next time we are in the Albany area and highly recommend it to our friends.

I’ve been here a few times, once we sat at a table, another time at the bar, and another time in the lounge for a birthday gathering. Everytime was equally amazing! The service is great, everyone is very attentive. The food this AMAZING!! As someone with a gluten allergy it can be super challenging to find good food and be confident that I won’t be sick. This place is great so sooo reassuring! They have so many options and are soo knowledgeable.

Isabella Marchese

The gluten-free options are plentiful and delicious! Also the server Drea is probably one of the best serves I’ve ever had. Know the menu front and back and provided impecable service! I knew I wouldn’t get glutened if she served me and I was right!!!

My husband and I so love Swiftys. We enjoy eating there every time we travel to Delmar. I love that they have gluten free bread and rolls. Salads and sandwiches are large and delicious. Their house made French fries are so addicting!

Delicious gluten free bagel and oat milk signature latte

Came because of the great reviews. The cashier was warm and attentive, and the rest of the staff were very friendly too. Unfortunately, the salmon bowl was bland with an overly sweet sauce, and the gluten-free dessert was also too sugary. Flies on the pastries didn’t help. A mixed experience—I’d probably skip it next time, but it was worth a try.

Rich Youmans

We showed up without a reservation and they worked to get us a table for 5 (3 adults, two kids). Our server, Danielle, was great... knowledgeable and kind, and she went out of her way to accommodate a gluten allergy. Food was cooked perfectly and we had a great time. We will be returning!

So happy we tried this place. I searched good gluten free food in Albany and it came up and it didn't disappoint. A great date night spot, we sat at the bar and it was cozy. The chef accommodated my gluten allergy and make a GF Chicken Marsala dish which was amazing. You can just tell it was made from scratch, even the sauce. So tasty! Definitely different than a popular chain restaurant where I normally get my Chicken Marsala dish. My boyfriend got a fish dish and said it tasted phenomenal. We both got lemon inspired drinks. The Limoncello martini was divine! We will be back, highly recommend.

Celebrated my engagement here and had such an incredible experience. Huge thank you to Mark for making the night so magical for us! He was incredibly attentive to my need for gluten free food and allowed us to pace out the evening slowly. Its nice to have such a wonderful restaurant near by dedicated to excellent service and delicious food!

We arrived in Albany on a Sunday to find that restaurants in town were generally closed, however we discovered The City Beer Hall and fell in love with it immediately. In fact we had such a wonderful meal we returned on the following evening as well. The menu was perfect and catered for my wife who was gluten intolerant with a number of offerings on the menu. Our choice of drinks was well catered for as well. We loved the burgers and the peach salad we shared was perfect. We can highly recommend this wonderful that is housed in the historic old telephone company building. It was such a friendly space to dine. Most importantly for us when we are going out is the service and care of the wait staff. We were absolutely blessed by having the gorgeous Katrina, look after us on both nights we visited for dinner. In fact it was her warmth and hospitality that made our return so easy. Katrina explained the options available and too, extra care to make sure my wife’s gluten allergy was understood in the kitchen. We loved both our visits and would return in a heart beat should we ever revisit Albany.
