My first place to eat in NYC and my first time in a 100% GF restaurant. everything was so good, I got the Açaí bowl and the Classic Cheese Bread whilst my Grandmother got the Panini, she can eat gluten but said it was the best bread she’d ever had! I’d highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for bread you can chew!

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.

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.

Literally one of the best veggie sandwiches I’ve ever had! I switched out the honey mustard for the hummus and was able to get it made on gluten free bread. It was quite pricey though. $16 for JUST the sandwich and I’m pretty sure there was an upgrade for gluten free even though the gluten free bread is always way smaller than regular bread and possibly an up charge for the hummus.

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.

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.

Hutong is truly fantastic in every respect. Lovely space with tables and booths depending on party size and preference. One never feels crowded. The food is first rate with generous portions—be it dim sum, soups or other dishes. The lunch specials are a real deal with great pricing and wonderful choices. The service is excellent and one never feels rushed—the team listens to the diner and adjusts timing for bringing out the dishes. And, one invariably takes home leftovers to enjoy again! We have dined there at lunch and dinner (great martinis!) as a couple, with extended family and friends and have never been disappointed. Spice level adjusted as requested. Lots of choice for the lactose or gluten intolerant and other dietary restrictions. We will keep dining there whenever we can!

The people here are so nice. Uriel is a good friend of mine and he made it a very special experience! The little crescent rolls they give you at the beginning were so yummy. Especially with a cappuccino The entrees were fabulous. I had the polenta based eggs Benedict. They were very unique! Served on a corn polenta (Gluten free) with the poached egg and hollandaise sauce. Pm top. Served with home fries, and it was actually a good serving size for one! The desserts were also 10/10 they have a gluten free coconut cake and a peach melba whipped cream cup that was amazing. Highly recommend!
