My go to bakery in Chelsea. Fave item is probably the Pine Nut cookies which are gluten free. Would be perfect if they were less sweet. I appreciate that the icing on all of their cupcakes, including the gluten free, is not too sweet. I'm tired of scraping off insulin spiking, jitters making icing loaded on most cupcakes. The Empire icing is yummy but doesn't make me feel sick from sugar afterwards. Staff is super friendly and kind, and the pricing is not crazy.

It was a good bagel. Honey bacon siracha cream cheese was good. The bagel could have been more crisp. It did kinda hurt my stomach after so not sure if they use seed oils or what. Like I liked it, but would be hesitant to come back. Also thought the bagel could have been crisper on the outside. ~$7 for bagel & specialty cream cheese. Sun AM, not an unbearable line. They have gluten free bagel options.

Great staff that really knows their coffee and a plus that they keep gluten free goodies separate from gluten treats (Maybe not best for cross contamination sensitive celiacs).

I have a gluten allergy. The waitress was very accommodating and double checked if the fried chicken was safe the fried chicken is gluten free but it’s fried in frier that would be cross Contaminated. Soo amazing for triple Checking. Unfortunately we were so rushed. To the point I was still shoveling food in my mouth and she asked to Take my plate. Even watched over our table. And the Manager coming over on her iPad multiple time during our dinner ( if there is a time limit let us know in advance, we were there total 2 hours with drinks and dessert) Idk if I was starving but the food was excellent!!! Everything was soo good! Dips to filet kebab to dessert

Food was very good and lots of gluten free options! The little gem lettuce salad was a win. Also had the spicy peanut pasta (gluten free!) Great for small dinners or dinners with parents as the space inside is not all that large and the menu puts a small (but worth it) dent in the pocket.

Super hip place that gives upscale vibes with the interior and serves elevated comfort food. Indoor-outdoor boundary is blurred with the seating that feels very open and nice. Great place for brunch or early dinner. There’s all types of people, families in there, very wholesome. There’s plenty of gluten free/vegan/vegetarian options as well. Servers are nice and accommodating but not overwhelming. Bar is gorgeous and the drinks were great! I had the Bistro Burger with a lettuce wrap (9/10), Deviled Eggs (9/10), Burrata (9/10), Polenta Fries (10/10), Grilled Chicken Paillard (6/10) and the Wildberry Mojito (8/10) over two visits recently. As an interior designer, I must note that the interior is absolutely stunning and very thought to the last detail. For a small space, they really made it look nice and conceptually consistent which I love!

Great food, excellent prices, exactly what you want if you’re looking for a quick diner stop. I liked that you get to watch everything being made in front of you. Plus I asked them to be mindful of my eggs staying away from the pancakes on the griddle(gluten intolerant) and they did!! Thanks for a great breakfast, Johny!
