Top 150 Gluten-Free Places Across Midtown East, New York

I brought my visiting family here, half of whom are GF (myself included). Like everyone says, all the food is really good here! No compromises just because it’s gluten free. But what I’m really thankful for is the reservation ease. I couldn’t find the group size I needed on OpenTable, so I called and got a person immediately. Needed to call two more times to change the reservation to add someone / change time, and again to confirm they could accommodate a wheelchair 😂 I felt so high maintenance and they were SUPER nice about it. For that alone, 5 stars. Will definitely bring other people here because it’s, to me, in a “classic NYC” neighborhood and gives classy vibes for reasonable price point.

The gluten free menu had a lot of options. The gluten free waffle was delicious! I have celiac and I had no ill effects!

Taylor Lupini

100% gluten free! We got the Mexican bowl and the Mediterranean Chicken Bowl, both were very good. Also had the Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk cookie which was good for a gluten free cookie. Definitely coming back here again!

This place was amazing! They have gluten free chicken tenders and fries! If you are gluten free you will love these tenders and fries, they were amazing! I loved their honey mustard dipping sauce and their signature sauce was great as well. The staff was super helpful and even helped me find their restaurant over the phone because the geolocation was off when I was using walking directions.

Delicious pizza and the restaurant had a nice vibe. We ordered a gluten free pizza with several toppings - it was fresh, hot, and prepared perfectly. It was Saturday night and most tables were full, but they still has some open tables for us. Very fun and satisfying evening at Uncle Paul’s.

Staff is wonderful and the environment is always tidy and clean. Their Pasta Bolo has got to be one of my favorite dishes - gluten-free, diary-free guilt-free, all without feeling like I’m sacrificing anything.

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.

Hot dog stand located inside Grand Central Terminal, in the basement. They have gluten-free hot dogs with the best gluten-free hot dog bun I've ever had. My boyfriend, who isn't celiac, said it was the best hot dog he'd had in New York.

Stacy P

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!

Had lunch here. Ordered the Tom yam red soup, green curry w chicken and shrimp pork summer roll. All 3 dishes were delicious! Wait staff were very friendly as well. Food came out really quickly too! They had many gluten free options available. Some vegan options too!

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.

Veronica Peterson

Long Island commuter LOVING this little find … Bluestone Lane has been my lunch spot for weeks now. Warm chia latte and Turkey salad Bowl with more than a few gluten free options for a sweet treat. Super friendly staff and the best people watching spot on the block. 😉 Must try.

Yohana Gonzalez

Yummy! I love the berry matcha. I also got some gluten free madeleines. I have had other berry marchas and they pale in comparison. This is just the right mix of both!

Juanita was an excellent server. She was very attentive without feeling overbearing. We had a late reservation and even so she never betrayed any sense of annoyance or tried to rush us out the door. Our cocktails arrived promptly and she was very informed about celiac allergies and provided a gluten-friendly menu immediately. The food was pretty good, but the service brought the restaurant to five stars. Big thank you to Juanita and the rest of the staff for making us feel comfortable and settling Us in for a nice meal.

Solid steak frites. You can order either blue, rare, medium or well done. Rare is closer to a medium rare so that's what I went with and was perfectly cooked. It's really maybe a 7-8oz portion of meat at most that gets split between two servings so the meat portion is modest. The sauce is quite good if not a bit on the salty side (very heavy on butter so celiacs beware). There is the option to have the sauce on side so you can moderate how much sauce you want. The fries are perfectly cooked. Crisp and delicious and we had ours without salt which was perfect to counteract the salty steak sauce. Service is excellent

Best Gluten Free Turkey Reuben I've had. Can't wait to order again. Pretty sure cross contamination is high risk depending on your sensitivity.

michelle grutman

Good choices, amazing customer service. Tons of flavorful cool sauces to choose from. Tons of ways to customize your dish, this place has something for everyone whether vegan, gluten free or if you want to just double up the protein or salad. I love the chicken and steak combo with spicy teryaki sauce and brown rice. The line moved fast especially with the self order kiosks. I also think its cool that they partner up with vendors like mealpal here. Every single dish and protein ive tried had good seasoning with big portions and high quality ingredients. There is also ample seating here but it gets packed between 12-2 pm so beware of less odds in this time frame.

Maddie

The food was delicious and the service was attentive and quick! Loved all the gluten free options and that the server asked us whether cross-contamination in the fryer was okay or not. The paella was beautifully presented and very tasty. My only complaint is that the music was a little too loud, making it hard to hear our conversation sometimes. That won't stop us from coming back though!

Excellent risotto and ravioli! I was able to find gluten free options as well. Our waiter Jason was very attentive and nice! Would definitely go back!

the bagel market has never been better—there’s so much variety now, from classic everything bagels to wild flavors like jalapeño-cheddar or blueberry-thyme. It’s easy to find options that fit my diet too, like gluten-free or protein-packed bagels that still taste great. Prices are a bit higher at the artisanal spots, but the quality and freshness make it totally worth it

TL;DR: 4/5 star food, 1/5 service. Should be stripped of their michelin star until they can get their front-of-house in order. Review: I'm just going to rip the band-aid off now, and say in all of my years of going to restaurants, from chain restaurants to Michelin star restaurants, I have never been made to feel less "valued" as a customer than at Le Jardinier. The restaurant should be stripped of it's Michelin Star because of how poor the service is alone. My wife and I have been looking forward to trying this place for months now as we saved up to take a Christmas trip into NYC. We were excited for the tasting menu most of all. We excitedly confirmed with our waitress that the tasting menu was gluten-free for my wife and let her know we were most likely going to do it. She leaves, says she'll come back to take a drink order, but she never returns. Instead, our first course shows up, and another guy eventually comes around to take a drink order. From that first course up until the dessert plates were cleared, our waitress never came back to check on us, never asked if we needed anything, no one asked if we wanted another glass of wine or a cocktail. The waitress ignored us for the entire 2.5 hour ordeal. It wasn't a 2.5 hour ordeal to appropriately space the tasting menu mind you. If it was, they would have been interested in selling more drinks to us at the very least. The food was just slow. The wait staff even dropped the desserts at our table without so much as a word about what was in them until we had to ask because my wife was nervous about the cookie-like thing on the bottom of hers. Meanwhile, the customers to our left and right were being waited on consistently by the waitress. She was chatting both tables up. Their water was constantly topped off. The disparity in service was so profound we both just wanted to leave by the fourth course. So, how WAS the food? It was...fine. The first item, HIRAMASA, GRAPEFRUIT, JICAMA, AVOCADO MOUSSE, BAY LEAF, was fresh, good acidity and use of textures, and it was plated beautifully. It was a nice start to the meal for sure. The second item was SAVOY CABBAGE "LASAGNA" CELERY ROOT, HAZELNUTS, BLACK TRUFFLE." It had a nice savory, earthy flavor profile to it and was pretty tasty. The third dish was surprisingly underwhelming, POACHED MAINE LOBSTER, CREAMY POLENTA, CORALINE BISQUE It was very one-note in it's flavor profile and my poached lobster was overcooked. Rather disappointing. The fourth course was the LONG ISLAND CRESCENT DUCK, ROASTED SALSIFY, KUMQUATS. The duck was just salty. If there was other seasoning on it, I couldn't tell because it was licking a salt cube. The cook was impeccable though, so they definitely get points for that. The dessert I had was THE PUMPKIN PATCH, AUTUMN SPICE CHEESECAKE MOUSSE, CANDIED GINGER ICE CREAM. It was visually impressive, but your mileage may vary depending on how you care for flavors like pumpkin or ginger. I will say though, their patissier is very skilled.

Sparks is legendary and fantastic

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.

Urbanspace on 52nd (6th/7th) would probably have some options also
