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!
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! ✨
Hands down the before gluten free pizza I have ever had in my life. The crust is so amazing (not like all the other places). It was thin and crusty, just the way a pizza should be. Everyone there is amazing!
