Heather Coupland

My favorite bakery! The cinnamon buns & egg sandwiches are unlike anywhere else. Love having access to safe & tasty GF treats!

Ashley Kus

Gluten free, very accommodating, thorough, allergen friendly

Kelsey Battista

hidden gem!! cute diner with tons of gluten free options. I let the server know of my gluten allergy, the staff were very knowledgeable. the buckwheat chocolate chip pancakes were delicious- even my non gluten free husband loved! definitely recommend making a pit stop here

Andrea O'Blenes

Great gluten free deserts: cupcakes and the vegan apple coffee cake.

Valerie Fallon

Excellent gluten free options. Truly my go to for fried seafood. My only complain is their chocolate cake used to be a large piece with amazing frosting. It’s definitely gone down 2/3 of the size and the taste isn’t the same as it used to be. Somebody added chunks of salt on it! It was really bad and same with the frosting was bland!

Celiac Friendly!

Heather Coupland

Martha Rogers

Gluten free heaven!

Austin Lieto

Very good for celiac

Laurie Jambor

My celiac daughter and I are never disappointed with the treats we get here!! So delicious!!

Richard Onofrio

We went there with our 13 yo who has celiac and got the gluten free pizza and no issues at all… it’s very hard to find a pizza place that we can all eat at… We drove over an hour and 15 minutes and was worth it….

Adam Demaral

Perfect spot for a Celiac to have breakfast! Need to open a franchise in Hudson, MA!

Heather Coupland

The staff goes above & beyond to ensure a safe & inclusive experience. Great celiac safe menu! Highly recommended.

Laurie Jambor

We love Plan B for their dedicated fryer and many GF options. My celiac daughter loves the chicken tenders and tots and we’ve never had any issues with feeling sick after eating here

Karen LaFleur

I love the GF version of General Tso Chicken.

Genna Mullen

I absolutely love Green Olive. I have celiac and have never had an issue with food, and they have so many options! My only issue is they close earlier than their hours say and it’s not super close to where I live, so when I finally get through my day and am SO looking forward to a good calzone, they’re closed hours earlier than it says online. That has been and is my only issue and it’s so disappointing to me as I can’t get this kind of food everywhere, driving over half an hour away and craving the food to find out it’s closed it so sad :(.

Rachel Lippin-Foster

Gf friendly!

Leslie Burby

I tried a variety of foods and they were all delicious and the staff were incredibly patient and kind. I will definitely be back. This is nice and close to the New Haven Union Train station.

Tiffany Amodio

bakery

Stephanie Amoroso

Rio Salado has great food and much of it is gluten free. The chips are made in a dedicated fryer. My daughter has celiac and traveling is always stressful but not this time!

Zachary Fauvel

The owners are very kind and were very welcoming. I have been trying to find a good, gluten free pizza place for a while and Rizzo’s is definitely the place to go. The tubs are very filling and have a great taste. You can tell they were made with passion and heart.

Olga Rodland

Great gluten free options! Suitable for celiacs!

Sara M

They had a variety of gluten free options and our server was extremely friendly and knowledgeable!

Alexandra Monroe

Celiac safe, gluten free, dedicated gluten free kitchen. This is an unexpected location but the Brazilian cheese bread is delicious. The owners are very kind, I went for their recommendation of the Brazilian sandwich- very crunchy in an unexpected way. I got a little bag of crunch breadsticks and a coke, the total was $17 and change. There are picnic tables outside to sit at and seating inside. I ate outside. Definitely will return next time I’m in the area- a breakfast sandwich with their bread would be phenomenal!

Katherine Roland

Awesome place!! Great for gluten free/Celiac Safe.

Eleanor McClellan

I have to begin by saying that my experience at J Law Kitchen & Craft Bar was outstanding! We hosted a bridal shower for my daughter and it was such a great event! The Event Manager, Clara was so helpful from the first time I contacted her. We met to discuss decorations, menu options and how the room would be set up. My daughter, as well as a few guests required a gluten free menu and we had so many options! The day of the shower, the bridesmaids were able to get into the room in plenty of time to decorate before the guests arrived. The buffet was set up just off the sitting room which made it so easy to move about. Our main server, Jayra was on top of all the drink orders and plates were cleared efficiently. All of the guests were very complimentary of the food and the service.

Santiago

Having Celiac Disease and adhering to a gluten free diet can be challenging especially trying to eat Chinese takeout. This is the first place in five years I have been able to enjoy Chinese takeout again . My husband and I love the food and staff. We go at least once a week. Extremely friendly and great food !

Minakshi Stalhamer

Amazingly flavorful, all gluten free food, wonderful options, absolutely lovely experience (btw the burritos are hugeeee and the taco orders are 1 per and pricey but nice to try a few)

I can’t say enough good things about our experience at S&P Oyster on New Year’s Day. We chose to celebrate our wedding with a big group of 16, and it turned out to be the perfect decision. From the moment we walked in, everything was top-notch even on a holiday First off, our server, Kev, was amazing. I honestly don’t know how he kept his cool with so many requests flying at him all night, but he did it with a smile, a sense of humor, and a level of professionalism that made the whole evening feel effortless. We had people with dietary restrictions— like gluten and dairy allergies—and Kev made sure everything was taken care of without any fuss. The menu offered a whole host of both vegan and gluten free options and Kev worked directly with the kitchen to make sure every dish was tailored to accommodate those needs, and it really helped us relax and enjoy the meal without any stress. The food was out of this world. Everything from the appetizers to the mains to the desserts was incredible. There was a great variety of options, which was such a relief, especially when you’re dealing with so many different preferences and dietary needs. Our group really was blown away by everything we ordered from the apps to dessert, the food here was really a hit! The atmosphere was intimate and beautiful while remaining welcoming, which made it easy for everyone to enjoy themselves and feel comfortable. The staff didn’t rush us, which I really appreciated—our group can be a bit chatty, and we were there to linger, enjoy the food, and celebrate, so it was nice that they let us take our time. Everything just clicked—great food, fantastic service, and an atmosphere that really let us savor the moment. It’s not easy pulling off a large group celebration with so many moving parts, but S&P Oyster, especially Kev, nailed it. I can’t recommend it enough, especially if you're looking for a place that goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels taken care of. Kev deserves a special shoutout for being an absolute pro and making sure our wedding celebration went off without a hitch. Thanks to this experience, we plan on returning frequently!

Stopped by here while visiting family in the area. It's difficult for me to find quality gluten free items at home, so I try to stop at places when I have the chance. It is FANTASTIC and I can't wait to stop by again. The whoopie pie--- AMAZING. Next time I will absolutely stock up on those. The cookies were excellent, and I'm looking forward to the biscuits. I was able to freeze almost everything. Yes, a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for in this case and it is QUALITY and absolutely worth it for me. Gluten free is always expensive, so it might as well be from a local bakery. Thank you for having this bakery!

Gluten free options are excellent.

Boi Boi

Love this place! Food was excellent, service was great and atmosphere amazing. I have Celiac and I couldn't have felt more comfortable eating here. An awesome experience

Elizabeth Fuqua

Obsessed with PF Chang’s. Been coming since I was in elementary school with my family as they have some of the most amazing gluten free apps/entrees people with celiac could ever imagine. The egg drop soup is to die for and the Chang’s spicy chicken has a sweet sauce with just enough spice. My partner loves the pad thai as well saying it’s slightly sweet with a classic pad thai flavor. I will forever miss the gluten free chocolate dome dessert with the berry sauce, but they still have GREAT options and I will be coming back many more times in the future. Love this place. 15/10.

Gina Wrenn

Tons of Gluten Free Options! Take allergy serious.

Caitlyn Lac

As someone who cannot eat gluten without getting sick (non-celiac), I'm not sure how this place doesn't already have 5 stars. These are the best gf cupcakes I've ever had and trust me, I've had a lot of GF desserts. Even my brother who can eat gluten said they dont taste gf, thats how good they are. The salted caramel chocolate chip cookies are phenomenal too.

Hannah Jahn

Amaaazing gluten free and vegan/dairy free soft serve ice cream! The Amaretto is my favorite and the ice cream sandwiches are great! Definitely a hidden treasure

Hannah H

Gluten free dedicated fryer, the best appetizers and drinks. gluten free bread for your table if you order it, a lot of the soups are gluten free and a majority of the menu can be made gluten free. this is my go to spot! very celiac friendly.

Jennifer Turpin

Always a favorite when visiting that area. The food is always great, and we leave with vegan/gluten free desserts that rival no vegan/gluten free bakeries.

Natalia Provolo

I was very excited to support a local business and get goodies for my gluten free and dairy free friend for her birthday! However, I placed the order on 3/21/25, received confirmation but have never heard anything else. I have called and emailed multiple times! I even messaged them on fb. I am very frustrated and disappointed. From reading the reviews, it sounds like multiple people have experienced this issue in the past month.

Britany Barrow

Absolutely beautifully decorated gluten free chocolate cake for my daughter’s 4th birthday party! My daughter has celiac disease and it was incredible to find someone who not only can make celiac safe gluten free goods (100% GF kitchen), but also the best tasting, moist chocolate cake ever! ALSO, affordable. The entire cake disappeared at the party, no leftovers. 100% recommend! Thank you gluten free gringa ❤️

Jason Clay

Their cupcakes are always consistently amazing. Their gluten free options taste wonderful. Staff is always helpful and very friendly.

Cassie Palencia

Knowledgeable

Maria Corina

A lovely gentleman took care of us, excellent customer service. The food was delicious, my mother has celiac and other food intolerances, she had plenty of options to choose from. I had their prosciutto panini, it was yummy. Highly recommend!

Jen F

I love that this restaurant has gluten free options and takes allergies seriously! I wasn't thrilled with the service tho. My husband and I made a reservation Friday evening for a date. I picked on open table a standard table, assuming that's in the dining area not the bar. When we arrived, they were busy and it appeared they ran out of tables so they seated us at one the extended tables from the bar. I wasn't happy with the experience there, although the bartender took our orders quickly and was friendly, no one ever came back to check on us. I had a request for extra sauce but no one came by. I would have rather waited for a table than be seated at the bar, because you don't make a reservation to just sit at the bar.

Lisa Zaharioudakis

Every meal I’ve had here has been so delicious! The staff is really helpful, as I can’t eat dairy, gluten or nuts, and they are able to confirm for me what is safe for me to order. Wonderful atmosphere, too!

G D

So easy to east GF here

TJ McGuckin

Food is always good with a great drink selection of wine and cocktails. Shout out to our server Trevor who was very personable and knowledgeable. He customized a bourbon drink for me that was VERY good. Their in house Gluten Free pasta is highly enjoyed too. We will be back again soon.

Laurie Jambor

Extensive gluten free options and huge portions but pretty pricy!! At least leftovers can be brought home for another meal. Always a risk of cross contamination at an establishment like this

Randi Lynch- Realtor & Handyman Services

I went with my office today and the food was amazing. I wish I got more pictures. My daughter is Gluten Free and being able to choose anything is amazing!! Very excited to go back with my family.
