I had high hopes after seeing the reviews and the gluten-free options. The owner and staff were surprisingly hostile to our party as first timers, commenting directly to us (and others) throughout the meal about how absurd it was that we did not have cash on hand for payment. Very bizarre, and something I’ve never experienced before. The gluten-free pizza tasted worse than a Domino’s pizza, and was twice the cost ($25). I can’t recommend much about this venue.

Not gonna lie, I was skeptical when I realized it was vegan. I got a latte with almond milk and a gluten free savory biscuit and it was terrific! I don’t think I’ve ever had anything gluten free that was so moist. Will def come back and try some of their lunch items. Yum!

Andres provided lovely service throughout dinner. When we were seated he kindly walked me through the gluten free options and was a delight.

Robin Burnette

One of the most underwhelming Italian restaurants I’ve been to in the city. Service was great but both pastas, one gluten free and one normal were overcooked and gummy. Ordered two glasses of wine and it was spilled out of the glass while being poured.

Went out for dinner on a Friday night, and after a very rude manager sort of tanked the vibes of the meal, Yun was nice enough to give us a $50 credit over the phone for our next meal. Overall, I enjoyed the crazy peanuts, the mains are fair, and both our servers were lovely. Gluten free options as well. Thank you Yun for your fabulous customer service and hopefully that manager was just having an off day :)

Zoe Lewis

A great Aussie-like cafe in NYC. It was nice to have a real smoothie! Great dietary options including gluten free and soy free.

Marian W

Attended a private pre-wedding dinner for 18 in their side room. Attentive servers, tasty fresh appetizers and food with gluten free options

Britt Borders

I have a gluten allergy, I was visiting New York and got a Nutella crepe with strawberries and the ham and cheese crepe with buckwheat. It was SOOOOO GOOD. And the service was great, fast and they were super friendly. Trying to get my boyfriend to go back before we leave. Will definitely return!

Viana Da Silva

How divine is this burger! And the best thing is that they have a gluten-free bread option. Good service, especially from the girls who bring the food to your table and then are very attentive to helping you pick it up.

Joshua Liss

The gluten free pancakes were bad. I’d try something else tho next time.

Amber Easterling

This is a favorite spot for lunch with a beautiful view of Central Park. All GF items are marked on the menu and the staff is very helpful. We got the asparagus salad and salmon with broccolini.

Eric Knoll

Sandwell was right around the corner from our hotel. What a find! We stopped in for happy hour, which was a lot of fun and a great deal. Best of all, the sandwiches were delicious and there was a gluten free option for my wife, which was a total bonus. There are A LOT of options in this neighborhood, but Sandwell is the place to be! Highly recommended!

Jordan Van Maanen

I sometimes have to eat gluten free because of my wife. Unfortunately the GF crust just wasn’t that good. Not sure there is GF crust in NY that gets even close to the original crust. I didn’t try the regular pizza but it looked great!

Aileen Farrell

Delicious gluten free pasta and shrimp avocado salad! Waitress was so attentive and kind!

Jessica Lebovits, RD, CDN

Seafood menu with lots of GF options Salmon tostadas & spicy calamari

Barbie N

I went there Sunday for brunch and it was packed. The portions are huge and they offer a gluten free menu. The mocha martini was great.

RO

Delicious brunch place, everything was very tasty. Service was a bit slow and unresponsive. Gluten free options available by removing the pita bread

Emma Jones

Gloria was extremely kind and helpful. I have celiacs and she was super accommodating, checking with the kitchen about what I can eat and making sure things came out on separate plates when they did contain gluten. She made this experience wonderful!

Sara Hudson

The staff is bar the best asset at this establishment. Every single person we dealt with went out of their way to accommodate us and make us happy. Literally every single staff member, they were amazing. Their toasted chili sauce is divine. They worked diligently to ensure the member of our party with Celiac disease was offered safe options, and when serving the dishes, they were careful to point out which would be good for them to eat vs. which would not. The staff was also careful to advise us to mind the little dried red peppers cooked with one of the dishes; I have to assume some people must have had a bad reaction, because the peppers seemed pretty normal as far as hot dried red peppers go. IYKYK. The food was good, but not make me want to rub it on myself good. It was good, but not amazing. Perhaps with the exception of the smoked crispy skin chicken situation, which made the meal worthwhile. All of the dumplings we sampled were very tasty, as was the multi-spice chicken dish we had, though for me, I needed a little salt to really brighten it up. The reason for the not so great rating regarding atmosphere... We visited in the beginning of July and more robust air conditioning would have made things much more comfortable, and we were not the only group to be off put by the heat and humidity. Overall, this was a solid experience with marvelous service. I would definitely go back, I just might not go totally out of my way to do it.

What a gorgeous restaurant! This place stands out amongst the rest of the Italian places in the city. Especially on the upper west side. Service was impeccable and everyone was SO kind. Delicious gluten free pasta option and bomb charcuterie. Highly recommend for a date or family dinner!

Spectacular gluten-free sandwich 🤩

We tried the double smash burger and the spicy UWS smashed plant burger. The double smash burger had perfectly balanced flavors. The vegan burger had a good spicy kick to it but the rest wasn’t as appealing. I personally prefer vegan patties made of grains and veges, but this was a soy patty. I should’ve checked beforehand, so that’s on me. The vegan burger bun was also gluten free and extra points for accessibility, but it was kind of a crumbly bun - which might be the norm with gluten free buns. It was definitely a new experience for me. The portion sizes were good and the shoestring fries that came with the plate were decent. I loved the service, just the right amount of attention and care was provided, nothing over the top. Just a person doing their job, and going about their way. The atmosphere was electric because the soccer game was playing. People were cheering simultaneously for team USA (the COPA America match). I knocked off a star simply for the average vegan burger, I wish they would that one a little better. All in all, a solid place to grab a bite on a Sunday evening.

I strongly recommend the restaurant. The food is very tasty, large menu with a large variety of options for gluten gree and vegan diets. I eat gluten-free and they are very knowledgeable. They even have gluten-free nans. They have very good deals for lunch and dinner menus. The staff is very nice and welcoming.

Martin Streller

Ordered two Shak Shuka, regular size. One with gluten-free bread. One glass of red wine. One Super Green.

Emily Wang

The food is very unique. Very authentic Georgia food. Portion is small though. They also offer vegan and gluten free dishes.

Carmen Meyers

Ate dinner here for the first time and the food is amazing. Layers of flavors and sophisticated menu options. I had the braised organic chicken with capers and currants and flourless chocolate cake for dessert as I’m gluten free. Delish. Will definitely be back.

Janneth

This place is amazing!!! The staff was great. I did a mistake when I ordered online and the guy there was so friendly and understanding. I got the gluten free Luke’s trio. It’s so good, the rolls are buttery and well stuffed and the blueberry lemonade with honey went perfect with it. Can’t wait to go back!

Nick Van Maele

Excellent bakery. Somewhat pricey but delicious food. Free tap water is provided. Their Cruller is a crossover between a doughnut and a churro. It's delicious. My wife had a gluten-free salmon and avocado, and she described the bun as very tasty, which is not a given in the gluten-free space. Modern interior. You can sit inside and outside on the sidewalk. Wheelchair accessible. Restrooms on-site are clean but probably not wheelchair accessible, given the tight door. I can recommend without hesitation. We will visit again.

Saul Kaiserman

Big menu, the curries and pad Thai are gluten free. Good for kids or for drinks.

Alison Yuhas

Such a great UWS coffee shop. Quite a bit of seating in the back, although it can get pretty crowded. Their gluten free baked goodies are amazing if they have them in stock when you're there!

J G

We come here often and are never disappointed. The food is consistently delicious, always fresh and they are on it with people who have gluten allergies which is appreciated! Cant recommend this place enough and for anytime of the day! Lena is amazing and a joy to have as your server!

Emily Rader

I’m a Maman regular at this UWS location and take it from me…it’s the best! Charming, fresh, delicious, and the only spot where I like to meet friends over coffee or sit down with my tablet to get things done with a latte on a weekday afternoon. The staff is super friendly and funny and you can always tell they really care. The vibes are perfect with cheery (but not too loud!) background music and exposed brick/florals on the walls for a clear aesthetic which makes it feel like a little European cafe. The pastry selection is mind blowing and there are lots of healthy and delicious brunch and lunch options (with lots for vegetarians/vegans/gluten free/other allergens clearly called out). Thanks for being the best spot, Maman Amsterdam Ave!

It eats great and gluten-free too.
