GLUTEN FREE GOODNESS!!! Just let your server know you are GF/Celiac and they will make sure you get everything GF! Most al the sauces are already GF yet they ensure especially if you order the larger family courses that you are also able to enjoy them!

Enjoyed Gluten Free rigatoni bolognese at this charming little spot on East 53rd Street. The sauce was excellent, tasty, substantive and not runny. The staff was very nice and attentive. And, they offered other GF menu items, so I plan to return.

Crave Fishbar Valentine’s Day 2025 4 Course Prix Fixe Menu $85 per person was perfect and memorable! Thank you to our server Michelle for recommendations. The manager and team were attentive and caring to customers. We especially liked the variety of delicious and fresh gluten free menu choices. Friendly fun vibes, cozy warm interior, and wonderful dining on the upper East Side!

Healthy. Yummy. But very high end for what it is. Also small-ish volume. ~$18-22 / bowl. Salmon was quite good. And then you get a base and only 2 veggies… everything else is extra. Salmon is delish. It’s not that great of a portion for +$6. Plenty of sauces- I really like the cranberry Harrissa and the beet hummus. Charred broccoli is nice. Rice is good. Seed toppings are delish. Gluten-free. Healthy healthy. Overpriced. Very restrictive (you basically get 4 ingredients per bowl). Technical note: The way it’s organized, they have the cold veg and the warm veg, and you choose 2 across them, and it’s not clear when ordering. Someone should streamline the customer experience.

Super yum, fast service, friendly workers, good price point ($15-20), and they have great WiFi when I eat in. I always get the lentil falafel chaat bowl with half rice half salad. The roasted sweet potatoes with the coconut sauce was divine. Complex flavors, gluten free and vegan. Tastes fresh and healthy, not greasy or heavy!

Favorite restaurant in the world Authentic French food No reservations They only serve salad, steak, and fries which are all GF. Don’t eat the bread / some desserts. Just reopened in NY and the lines are long but worth it

Nicole Weston

Win win win... So many options for somebody with gluten-free allergies. The salad was fresh. The service was fast for it to be such a busy place. I have no complaints

This was a delicious sushi offering and wonderful experience. Their menu clearly listed gluten free options sad they even offered gluten free tempura shrimp (which was fantastic). Our waiter was exceptionally nice and attentive. We will be back!

Daniel was beyond warm and welcoming, that we decided to visit again and try other items.we dined in, and he helped us choose the best items on the menu. The french cream pastry was indeed delicious. My mom tried their gluten free bread and she liked it. Honestly one of the best customer service I’ve received ! He’s a great conversationalist , both my mom and I loved our visit!

They have gluten free bread option for toasts and sandwiches. We went kinda early on Saturday morning and don’t have to wait, in addition they were so fast serving food.

Kelly Stoyak

There was a great variety of food from the many different eateries to choose from. The places we ate from had fresh elements to their dishes which was very pleasing. La Palapa served fresh guacamole and salsa with their food - which also had fresh elements of vegetables incorporated into them. We also ate from some Thai/Indian eateries within the vicinity that had delicious dairy/gluten free food with fresh elements to their dishes. It was quite crowded and a challenge to find seating - but expectedly so during the busy holiday season.

Not the place to go if you have a gluten allergy or need to be gluten free, there are so few gluten options it was almost laughable. I think it’s one of those situations where they were being overly cautious, but wow. I was the only GF at the table and we ordered the crustini’s, they all came out on Cucumber. When we asked for the original, they came out on cucumber again. The place felt a little chaotic when we first came in and even after being seated. I can’t speak to what the rest of the group got, but as a person with a gluten allergy, I would not be back.

Amber Easterling

I always have a great experience here!! The staff is very helpful and can answer any gluten questions! They cook all meals with GF soy sauce and will also provide it at the table. I got the 8 greens fried rice with chicken.

Mallory Collins

Drinks here are a 10/10! Food I can’t say the same. This sandwich was $19 (gluten free bread added), and for that price I was expecting a huge and delicious breakfast sandwich. Sadly it’s very mid, skimpy with the portions, and just overall not good for the price! I didn’t even finish it because it just tasted so blah. For the price of food I would skip. But again, their drinks are amazing and worth the money.

Dined for morning breakfast - nice service and beautiful restaurant! I ordered the tofu scramble dish. It was good but I have honestly had better in other places, prices are steep too. However, the person I was dining with got the gluten free chocolate chip pancakes; it was very nice because for gluten free dishes, the chef will bring it out personally and the person I was dining with told me they were very good! Prices are expensive here.

They have gluten free bagels and bread, which is a godsend for people like me who can't eat gluten. They also have gluten free pancakes. If you have food sensitivities, it's worth the trip to check it out.

My colleague and I stopped last night for dinner and drinks, it was my first experience and she had been there multiple times. We had a great experience, and what made it great was our waiter Cesar - he was attentive, made sure to give advice and checked on us as appropriate . The food was OK, I am a bit picker because I have celiac and there are never many choices, especially at chain type restaurants. Overall our experience was a good one!
