If you’re in Stamford and there’s nowhere else to go then this place, attached to la Quinta, right off 95, has a cool, old school American diner look and a nice hostess. Order something very safe. Do not order any salad, anything with chicken or the French dip au jus, because they are just not good at all. I met my friend and her daughter there. We normally meet at the fabulous New Rochelle diner, but we thought we’d change things up. Sigh. We told the waiter the daughter was celiac and asked several questions about what was gluten free. She got grilled cheese on gf bread which came with French fries that were NOT gluten free. Fortunately the daughter sensed they weren’t and held off eating them. The waiter just didn’t register his mistake. No one ever bused the table which was a mess. We finally went and found a waiter and ordered lemon meringue pie- 2 slices - and deçàf. The decaf was great, the pie had a bit of freezer burn but was fine.
The place looks fun, but it’s just not good or friendly besides the hostess. Then, while we were eating the pie they began to vacuum. Loudly.
We are friendly and there’s nothing off putting about us. We didn’t say anything about the fries mishap or anything else, and they decided to just full out loudly vacuum right there in our faces. No communication/offer to have us move.
In short, they were unfriendly and the food was bad.
With limited pastries and a vibrant atmosphere, it's a cool spot for a sweet treat and a drink, despite occasional bathroom issues and loud music.

Food is limited to pastries, etc. to pair with your favorite beverage. The gluten-free brownie was amazing! I won't tell it's gluten-free if you won't!
While we were there, the bathroom was out of service, so we had to go next door. Also, the music was a bit loud to have a conversation. These small challenges won't stop us from coming back to try more goodies!
Nice chai latte and omelette. Dairy free and gluten free options available. Fresh, generous portions. There is no seating inside, so it’s more of a grab and go place.
When it comes to having hamburgers out I like to have options. I don't like that one size fits all cheese burger, I have to have more options and this place has a nice selection. The teaming is also nice and looks like a place out of a 50s movie. We went here twice during our stay in Stamford. They had gluten free rolls and were able to make us breakfast sandwiches that were fantastic. The restaurant is very cute, looks like an old fashioned malt shop.
We ate here a few months ago and loved it. Just had dinner again, and really enjoyed it. The food was great. They have a nice selection of northern and southern dishes and some street cart items. The service was polite and reasonably attentive. And, they have many items that are gluten free, and the waiter was able to help with identifying them. Definitely going back. It’s ok if you don’t know the menu. Simply close your eyes and point on any dish. You will love it. Oh don’t forget the bread!!!
Holy Cow! Eat here. It’s an amazing deli. Fresh. Well executed. Pickles are insanely delicious. The home made chips to DIE FOR.
And the best part is……. They are gluten free friendly.
Just what we were looking for - delicious food, friendly people and reasonable prices. Lots of gluten free choices (labeled on the menu) including blue corn fried calamari! We would be regulars if it was close by.
Great family-owned business with great service! Finding good gluten-free options can be hard, but there are a bunch of good ones here. I’ve had both the Chicken Kebab and Chicken Combo plates, and they were exactly what I needed. Portion size and meat to rice ratio is perfect, too. Would also much rather come here for an espresso rather than DD across the street.
I had my wife's 30th bday there and the help from Erika and the staff was fantastic. Everyone said how good the food was, especially all the different pizzas and gluten free penne ala vodka. Highly recommend the prosciutto pizza.
Expect fresh, creative cuisine and engaging service, making it a top spot for unique events and memorable gatherings.

Divina is one of the best restaurants in Stamford! Food is always fresh, creative, and delicious. Owner Enzo is involved and engaged, chef is clearly dedicated to his craft. They have gluten free options (pizza on the menu and pasta upon request). And fresh pasta! They also serve good mocktails. We like the Greek Salad Hummus from the starters! Plus the waiters are super nice. Strongly recommend!
Very good sandwiches. Always packed and can take a bit I time to get in and out. Usually have gluten free bread available, though Fridays can be dicey.
The best breakfast wraps and sandwiches! They offer gluten free wraps as well. I always order on their website ahead of time and the food is prepared quickly. Staff is very friendly as well.
Charming and spotless, this adorable café stands out for its cozy vibe, helpful service, and delightful drink options.

Such a cool experience! Learn a little about cooking techniques. Prep and cook a delicious meal. And then EAT your hard work! A helpful staff (that cleans up behind your tornado) and a few drinks make for a great way tonspend an evening. We did a gluten free pasta night and it all came out very well. The location is a little misleading as you don't really notice it unless your looking for it, but the space is nice.
I can’t even begin to tell how amazing this place is. What a blessing to have this coffee shop around.
Let’s start saying that the coffee is very very good quality coffee. They really know what they are doing. And I think the draft latte is just genius, what a great coffee for summer days. They also have a great variety of food, which includes gluten free options, healthy options, delicious pastries.
The staff is outstanding, friendly and knowledgeable.
They have so much space, there is a designated area that I assume you can work from there and it’s more quiet. But let me tell you about the play area, just WOW. My kids went crazy playing there. Such a cute play space for all ages.
Highly recommend this place.
Experience a warm, welcoming vibe where staff inspire you to explore new options while making you feel right at home!

I’ve been meaning to reach out to comment on the amazing customer service Nadia always shows me and my mother when we are in. We always feel so welcome and encouraged to try new things! My mom has a gluten allergy and she helps us feel comfortable when ordering. Nadia is a rock star and you are lucky to have her around!
High-quality matcha lattes and solid breakfast options make this spot a local favorite for a tasty morning boost.

My partner and I occasionally get the gluten free breakfast sandwiches here and they’re really solid. I appreciate that they are careful about cross contamination. Their matcha lattes are really high quality. The coffee is also great.
