Such a delightful Friday dinner at Manetta’s!
We walked in without a reservation and they kindly accommodated us.
We started with a bottle of Chianti and the burrata special.
Then we split the gluten free carbonara and gluten free Bianca pizza. Both the gluten free pasta and pizza were incredible.
Our friend enjoyed a glutenful salmon pasta.
Friendly staff and warm atmosphere - they even had a gorgeous fire going on this cold winter night.
One of the VERY BEST gluten free pizzas I’ve ever had. I’ve had celiac for 7 years, and very critical of GF pizza. This stuff is actually good. Try it. Seriously.
I can't say enough about how great Manducatis Rustica is. We had a large group dinner here and the staff and chef were so accommodating to all dietary needs (I am gluten free and they had plenty of options!). They have a fabulous pre fixe menu with a lot of variety and we were surprised by how much food came with it, we definitely left stuffed! Loved the wine selections as well. The back patio is beautiful. Definitely a must-visit in Long Island City and worth making the visit out from Manhattan. Thanks Gianna and team!
Wow!!! What a cool place! We walked in out of the rain to belly up to the bar for a warming glass of bourbon and we were not disappointed. Bartender was friendly and knowledgeable, a neat pour could be had for $10-$20 and the star of the day? THE WINGS. Oh my God, seriously, the best wings I’ve had in 10 years. The sauces had a gorgeous amount of depth, flavor and heat and the snow sauce was a perfect complement. Many Gluten Free options! Can’t wait to go back!
I love M. Wells. Food + service are always great. Devin's doing a killer job with the wine list (best list across all of LIC + Astoria in my opinion). They're great about dealing with my gluten-free situation. I will keep dining there regularly.
Where should I start ....
1. Atmosphere
The atmosphere at Soi was amazing. I love how they have a lot of different vibes going on at once. There's a chill vibe, a hip hop vibe, and even some house music playing. You never know what kind of vibe you'll get when you walk in.
2. Staff
The staff were super nice and welcoming. They were always happy to help us out and answer any questions we had.
3. Food
The food was great! Everything was tasty and fresh. My favorite thing about their menu was that everything was gluten-free. I'm not sure if they do this for everyone, but it was really helpful for me since I am gluten intolerant.
4. Overall Experience
We went to Carla after work and it was a fun way to end our day. I definitely recommend checking them out if you're looking for a place to eat.
Great Instagram Check In location to add to your profile lol..
We really enjoyed our dinner at Casa Enrique. The guava margarita was so tasty, and as someone with celiac, there were plenty of gluten free options. I had the Enchiladas with salsa Verde and it did not dissapoint!
I can’t eat anything with gluten so I didn’t try their iconic soufflé pancake. But their soft serve and Japanese pudding is the best soft serve in town and OMG the Japanese pudding tastes like the one I had in Tokyo! I’ve been trying to find Japanese pudding in New York and this is the only place I found. Every thing is made in house here, even Soft serve is their own recipe.
Spacious, clean, great ambience. It is only 20 minutes from Grand Central with Line 7. Perfect location to get away from the crowds in Manhattan where I can sip on my coffee, read a book and enjoy nice desserts. Highly recommended.
We love coming here for a low key dinner date in the neighborhood. Everything about it is pleasant. The owners and staff are lovely, the food is authentic and perfectly seasoned. Ingredients are fresh and well paired.
I’m gluten free and have never felt like there were compromises made on quality or execution. They don’t carry gluten free bread, but are very willing to make small adjustments to accommodate dishes here and there. I’m definitely a fan.
Absolutely amazing food and service here! The server and bar tender were fantastic and super attentive! The food and drinks were out of this world! Great atmosphere and they have a patio as well to eat outside. They have gluten free and vegan options. I’m definitely going back!
Had the absolute best experience this evening at Jaguar. The owner, chef and bartender were all incredibly friendly and accommodating to my dietary restrictions. For those with a celiac allergy, they have gluten free crepes!! Drinks were absolutely incredible, I got the strawberry mojito and now want to order the entire menu. A jewel has been added to Astoria and we will be back! ✨
