Went for a family lunch and it was great! the waiter was really helpful for recommendations for pescatarian and gluten-free options. Service was excellent and the food was amazing. Absolutely recommend this place for great food and drinks.
A popular spot known for its tasty meals and quick service, though attention to detail can occasionally slip a bit.

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.
Great welcome with the host! Great food! Braised short Ribs were delicious. Has gluten free options as well including gf pasta. The atmosphere is a bit noisy.
This lively spot boasts an amazing drink menu and vibrant ambiance, perfect for a fun night out with friends or a special celebration.

I hosted my sister's baby shower here last weekend. I was really impressed by how Will (manager) and the chef accommodated a custom menu that met all the unique dietary requirements of our party (vegan, vegetarian, celiac, dairy free). The view from the semi-private area of the restaurant where we held the party felt quite personal, with a great view of the patio and water. Nice, tall, green hedges sectioned off our area from the rest of the restaurant. We were allowed to arrive early to set up some flower arrangements and all the staff was extremely accommodating and helpful (they provided us with glasses for flowers and an extra high table for party favors, and they cleaned up everything we brought after we left). They even let us linger longer after our three hour time slot had finished. Everything went so smoothly and was very relaxed and delicious. The cocktails and mocktails were GREAT too. Thank you so much for making it a special celebration for our family and friends.
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.
Expect an amazing variety of options and flavors that impress even non-special dietary eaters, making it a must-visit spot!

Came here for the first time tonight :) outstanding food and great customer service. I’m gluten free and they had tons of options to choose from. I ordered the gluten free pizza and it was delicious. My friends tried the gluten free pizza who aren’t gluten free and said it tasted Just like regular pizza. I can’t wait to come again thank you ❤️
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.
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.
Experience a vibrant mix of traditional and modern vibes, perfect for a lively night out with great ambiance and enticing drinks.

T’s pizza kitchen was phenomenal for our Sunday brunch. The food was fantastic and they even catered to a couple of our parties gluten-free needs which was important to us. The food, atmosphere, and staff made for a wonderful evening. I would highly recommend T’s for brunch!!
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.
A go-to spot for fresh, healthy eats with a vibrant outdoor patio and a great variety of flavors that keep people coming back for more.

If you don't mind spending a little bit more, DIG makes excellent, healthy food that offers lots of choices and flavors. I never know what to get, and I've never been disappointed! Don't sleep on the gluten-free brownies - they're rich and delicious!
An outstanding dining experience. Great view. Diverse team and clientele. The staff is professional, gracious and aims to please. The food is delicious. Parking is not a problem. Be sure to take a stroll along the waterfront. Options for gluten free folks! I do not have a single criticism. Just go! Make your reservation and go!
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!
