We love the food at Smok-haus and have visited a number of times. We always enjoy our visit. This time, we chose to use them to cater my husbands birthday. Our party had a few different food allergies (gluten free, vegetarian) and they had options for them all when setting the menu. They were very responsive and answered all of my questions. Unfortunately, the day of my party I had a family emergency and Smok-haus was completely understanding and accommodating. Their food and service are top notch and I highly recommend them for your night out or event.

They have a huge selection of gluten free options. I’ve eaten here a lot and everything I’ve ever had was good. The service is also excellent. Had a mixup with a take out order and they fixed it right away.

They have a great gluten free menu and the food was delicious but the service was outstanding. Melissa our server not only had a great personality and provided excellent service and was very knowledgeable about celiac’s and gluten free. We will definitely be going back because of her.

This is an excellent place for a quick bite and a delicious cup of soup. When my kids were little and attending a local private school, the NY Soup Exchange provided Soups once a week so the children could enjoy purchasing lunch. My kids just loved their bread as much as their soup choices. The menu changes daily offering fish based soups, cream, gluten-free, and more. They also have delicious wraps, and my favorite is their Greek Chicken Wrap. Filled with moist, white chicken, red onion, shaved lettuce, and Greek dressing, this wrap is so yummy. They have a Thai wrap, which is a tad spider and flavorful. They have good-sized salads and hot food selections too. A favorite for the business lunch crowd, they offer delivery but call it in early as they make many deliveries, so do plan ahead.

Food is always fresh and presented well. The staff is friendly and efficient. This is a new location for Kinha, as they recently moved a few doors down from their old location. The decor is more updated and modern. I just wish they played some subdued Asian Zen music and not regular rock and roll. That would improve atmosphere. They can and do tweak the food for allergy patrons. Gluten free options are easily handled.

A local fave with craveable bowls and salads, great outdoor seating, but could use some fans indoors when the weather's nice.

Omg I'm so happy that they opened a Sweetgreen near me! The bowls and salads are great! Totally craveable. The app is easy to use and fairly intuitive. It's very easy to order vegan and gluten free here. The outdoor tables are great, and indoor space is nice too. They just need some ceiling fans because when it's beautiful weather outside, the inside can feel really stuffy. I wish their whole front facade opened like a garage door(s). Staff is generally good and helpful, some just seem a little tired or disinterested but not a big deal. My family wishes they had olives, vegan feta cheese, sundried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, charred corn, and black beans as mix-ins. What they do have is really yummy especially the mushrooms and the tofu! I also wish the cauliflower and broccoli weren't so small. I guess they are cooked so long, they break down to almost nothing but I like to feel a little more substance would be better, just cooked for a bit less time.

My husband and I are huge foodies. chimay white (beer) on tap, & Kumamoto oysters. Their lobster Mac, the tuna tartar, the mussels ( the Calabrian, bouillabaisse, & the waterzooi entree ) … just unbelievable. It’s pricey but WORTH it. No one is giving you that quality of food & service anywhere. I also enjoy the pear Martini & the purple haze martinis are phenomenal. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.. seafood friendly as well as gluten & dairy free friendly which is amazing for me.

I absolutely love this place! I was fasting and gave up protein, dairy and gluten and they were so kind and patient with me whenever I asked questions or ordered. Plus their smoothies, protein shakes and bowls are literally the best I’ve had. Also good if you’re vegan or dairy free, they let you put vegan protein in any protein shake if you ask.
