According to the staff, the GF bagels are made with GF ingredients. However they warned me that they are rolled out and cooked on the same equipment as they make regular bagels. They have also changed the name to "low gluten" bagels.

Melanie was our server and was awesome. She was very attentive and very accommodating for my mom who has celiac disease. My mom always gets nervous ordering at places but Melanie made it a point to make sure she was as comfortable as possible and had nothing to worry about. Definitely recommend if you’re gluten intolerant or celiac!

They have gluten free bread which can’t be toasted due to cross-contamination. Frustrating as someone with celiac disease, but fine. But beyond that, my sandwich came out with pieces of egg shell on it… the server saw it, and was like “oh it’s just egg shell it’s fine” and went on his way. Yikes. Would not recommend.

We loved our morning breakfast here, including an almond milk latte, espresso, coffee and orange juice. They even have gluten free bread which was the most unusual I've ever seen but quite tasty. I'm pretty sure it was the healthiest meal we had during our short stay in NYC.

Mariana (not sure if I'm spelling her name right) was a gem! She helped us with our food allergies (celiac). She got us our food in a timely manner so we wouldn't miss our bus! Even though it was their busy rush brunch hour, She took the time to take care of us at the bar. Girl was always making drinks, get another bartender back here to help her!

For $21 I am very disappointed. The semolina bread was incredibly chewy, not fresh. They put one measly slice of prosciutto and the smallest bit of burrata, for $21 should be a crime. Anyone who thinks this is a top spot in nyc for an Italian deli sandwich is dearly mistaken. Save yourself the disappointment and order elsewhere. Positives: they have gluten-free bread and the sandwich ingredient combinations are good. That said, it’s not even close to being worth the price.

I had my first egg cream here, it was DELICIOUS!!! The portions are large and the meals are reasonably priced... they offer gluten-free toast but the menu is otherwise not marked with other GF options. They close at 10:00 p.m. on a Friday night now. This seems odd for the "city that never sleeps!"

Stayed at Luma Times Sq, but breakfasts at $25 a pop meant we ate at the bustling City Cafe 4 days running. Great fresh food, plenty of it, nice friendly staff and between $25-32 per day for four of us it was a no-brainer. A turkey bacon and hash brown roll was 4.99, and a great way to start the day. They’ll put any combination of what they have together too. My coeliac sister loved the omelettes, home fries and bacon too. Highly recommended!

A random find when searching for dumplings, and boy did we find amazing dumplings and chow fun noodles! One of our group was coeliac and the staff recommended wheat and gluten free dishes and ways to make the dishes safe (no soy sauce). The Chinese greens with garlic sauce were super tasty just on their own too!

I've already been here twice and they've only been open a week and I foresee Heritage becoming a new go-to for my family. The bread might be the best bread I've ever tasted and the fact that they make everything with ancient grains is INCREDIBLE - especially for anyone with gluten sensitivities or corn allergies - like my 4 yo son. This is the first restaurant where he could literally eat ALL the breads and pizzas and he loved all of them so much. His other favorite is the roast chicken - the only problem is now he's asking me to make "chicken like they make it at Heritage" which might be a problem hahaha because it is impeccable and I'm not a trained chef. Literally everything about the restaurant is perfection - the decor transports you to the Greek Isles or Bodrum in Turkey, the music and lighting are so relaxing, everything on the menu is exquisite, and the rosé is heavenly! We will be back again and again and again and we can't wait.
