My celiac daughter and I always eat here at least once each visit to the city. Never had any issues issue with symptoms and she is fairly sensitive to gluten. She always gets chicken fingers and fries while I’ve enjoyed several different sandwiches/burgers. Highly recommend as a quick stop restaurant

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!

Hands down the best authentic Thai food in New York City! Great decor, amazing service, fresh, delicious, original dishes! I spend my winters in Thailand and I’m very picky about where I eat Thai food in America and this restaurant absolutely is the real deal!! Tons of vegetarian options and even my aunt who has celiac was able to find things with no problem at all! The manager/server Boston was wonderful and catered to us as if we were the only guests in the place! Friendly kitchen staff that serves the food made to order delivered right to the table piping hot! 100% recommend and is now my go to place for Thai in the city! ขอบคุณ Kha! 🙏🙌

Dropped into L'Amico around 9:30pm on a Thursday night and it was fairly busy and we still were able to be seated and offered drinks quickly. Our food order was also taken quickly. We got the burrata to start and two gluten free pizzas. The burrata was heavenly especially with the warm squash as we were there Nov. 9th, so it was a great autumn touch. The GF pizzas were the best my wife and I have had. I've had a lot of pizza in my day and even been to New Haven, CT (pizza mecca of the world). If you gave me this pizza and told me it was a regular gluten flour pizza I would not have noticed a difference. I'm not saying it was as good as New Haven, but it was VERY good by GF standards. Crust actually had a crisp that GF pizzas never seem to be able to develop. I took a look at the oven when we left and that is definitely a large contributor to its success, but hats off to the chef for the GF flour mixture as well. Price was midtown Manhattan prices, but not over the top and I've paid more for worse GF pizza, so it's well worth it. We were very tired from a long day of work, but I'd love to go back and try a regular pizza (my wife is GF, but I am not) as I'm sure its amazing. Overall very nice place that I'd highly recommend, especially for the gluten free pies!

Clean, Fresh and sit down restaurant quality. Don’t overlook vegetarian options, they are substantial in the sides and veggie burger. Great mix of traditional Greek in a ‘to-go’ setting with very warm kind service. Just need a gluten-free bun for the burgers or wraps!

This was incredible. The food was fantastic! And if you’re gluten free, they follow all the protocols. Separate pan, and you even get an individually wrapped pizza cutter! Plus I couldn’t believe the price - I’ve never gotten a gluten free pizza this good, let alone for this low cost!
