Amazing and healthy food. If you have gluten or dairy allergies this is the place to visit. Food is very fresh and tastes amazing. Highly recommend.

I want to like this place so bad, but I’m just unsure. I’ve been here three times, once for lunch and twice for takeout. Let’s start with the good: it’s close to my apartment, they have good gluten free options and seem to be knowledgeable, and when the food is right it boarders on good/fine but I’ve had better. I usually get the plantain, bean, avo arepa and it’s different every time. It’s kinda bland if I’m being honest, and the most recent time I had it, there were no brands but severely undercooked mushrooms. This place is also VERY overpriced. Especially their weekend brunch which I accidentally stumbled in on. The wait time is also always outrageous.

the hand soap actually smells good. dad said that rainbows everywhere was the "best gay beer i've had yet" expensive but it's nyc so to be expected. great options without gluten, but no gluten-free substitutes

I ordered the empanada and gluten free sandwich, both were deep fried and soaking in oil it was impossible to eat and not get sick. Why do you turn healthy food into something terrible?

Allergy warning — Ordered a dish labeled gluten free on the menu. It came with gluten [bread] on the dish. When asked how was that was possible, the answer was “it’s gluten feee besides that”. They eventually took the dish back and remade it without the bread. Very disappointing, as I’ve been here several times and the food is so very delicious. But if you’re looking for gluten feee as a celiac or other strict dietary reasons….. beware.

This Chelsea neighborhood spot serves up delicious lattes made with Hawaiian beans, Brazilian cheese bread, and pain au chocolate. The staff and regulars are friendly, and there are surprisingly tasty gluten-free options available. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are always on the menu, and the staff is accommodating to children with great menu choices for them as well. Overall, it's a great spot for breakfast with prices ranging from $10-20 per person.

We met for dinner at Cafeteria in Chelsea. Pretty relaxed place, friendly staff, nothing too fancy—which I actually liked. We came especially to try their mac & cheese. It’s not really my kind of food, but honestly, it was really good! Creamy and rich—I totally get why people love it. The menu is very American, with some seafood and other options too. I asked if they had a whole wheat option for bread, but they didn’t. Only gluten-free or served in a lettuce leaf. Not a big deal, but it would be great to have that for people following an ADA-friendly diet. The food was tasty, not trying to be upscale or anything. A good spot for a casual night out goth friends 7/10

We went here Sunday (our last night in NYC) because it was a short walk from our hotel. The music was so loud we couldn’t hear each other without yelling. They turned the lights so low we could barely see our food. My drink was tiny for the price. My beet salad was okay, it could have used more fruit and cheese, a little salt and pepper. My friend ordered a burger without the bun and with sauce on the side. It came under cooked, with the bun and sauce on it and with the wrong side. She is gluten free so she couldn’t eat much of her expensive meal. I was served the wrong meal twice and by the time I received it, my friends had been done eating so I took it to go. It should have been free but that wasn’t offered to me. It also had pesto on it (which is not expected with a ragu) and I hate pesto, so I could not even eat it. The menu did not state it would have pesto on it or I never would have ordered it. I paid way too much to eat there for terrible service and food we either couldn’t or wouldn’t eat due to misleading info or wrong orders. I would not return to this location and wish I didn’t have to pay for my experience at all, as it’s not cheap either.

Really great food with tasty drinks. They have some good gluten free options as well. Sit outside if you can. They have a nice patio.

I had this on my list to visit and was pleased to see gluten-free options for my partner. I love my eggs Benedict and the coffee was described as elixir of life which it felt like that day.

Delicious dinner! They don’t have gluten free pita but they can accommodate most of their menu to be gluten free. Service was great and the food was delicious, I didn’t even need pita! Definitely recommend

Patti Robbins

BEWARE-if you are gluten free. There are many designations on the menu that claim items are gluten free. The kitchen staff does not understand the concept. There was barley in the chicken soup, even though I asked to make sure that it was GF. Other food/salad were tasty but I grilled the server about each dish. And ate simply

What a great find! THIS PLACE DESERVES 5 stars! I’m visiting from Los Angeles and was in search for the best donut in town. I told Chat GPT that I wanted to find the best donut near Hells Kitchen that are like my fav Butter Salt Donut at Sidecar in LA and it recommended this place. The 4.3 stars threw me off but I came anyway and I so glad I did. The vibe is lovely. I feel like I’m a French coffee shop. Plenty of seating. We ordered the Carmel Chocolate Chunk Cookie - it was Devine! A huge, thin, gooey in the middle, soft but crispy in the outside, perfect cookie. We had a Bacon, egg, and cheese on gluten free bread - the bread was soft and not dry like other GL options can be. The bacon is thick, baked in the oven goodness and the egg is runny delicious. + the Lumberjack was the icing on the cake. It’s the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on their maple donut. Oh. My. Goodness! It was so good. I came here for a donut and a breakfast sandwich and got them all in one dish. It was so good! We also ordered dirty iced chai as and they were delicious. They don’t have coconut milk sadly, but their whole milk did the trick. Can’t recommend this spot enough.
