Everything is made with tapioca and completely gluten free and really accommodating with nut allergies too!

I would not recommend this place for allergies, especially for people with celiacs. Unfortunately, places like this are the most dangerous for people with food allergies. The menu is marked and seems inclusive, but the staff I interacted with was not aware and did not care or take note when I asked about gluten free options and said that I have a gluten allergy. The person working didn’t know what I was talking about when I asked if the fries are fried in a shared fryer and was annoyed when I asked if she could check. She left and didn’t come back with a clear answer so, I played it as safe as possible and my food still came out carelessly on bread. I brought it to the counter and they brought it right back out without the bread. No communication. At that point I started noticed the lipstick on marks on my water cup and the jars of shared condiments where anyone can dip whatever utensils they want into it (including contaminated knives spreading on bread and back). I was grossed out. I have celiacs. These details matter. I know how to navigate menus and how to respectfully advocate for the bare minimum. It’s not clean and it’s not safe.

Be wary if you have issues with gluten here. Their menu states that they take "extreme cautions to minimize the risk of cross contamination", but the waitress told me that they boil their noodles in the same water as their dumplings, meaning ANYTHING with noodles is cross contaminated (including the pho and spring rolls). Honestly, this is super disappointing and does not indicate much care for minimizing cross contamination. That being said - their cocktails were tasty. My husband got their pho and enjoyed it. I got the Vietnamese chicken curry, which was tasty but VERY spicy. Service was kinda slow; it took quite a while to get our drinks ordered and then to get our food order in. They brought out our entrees but forgot my husband's summer rolls. I also requested no cilantro on my dish but it came out with a huge sprig on top. Overall I found this to be a disappointing experience, considering the blatant cross-contamination and hit-and-miss service.

First time here It was recommended. I ordered 2 gluten free beef empanadas and 3 chicken and a regular chicken. The beef were actually beans I didn't see any beef and tasted only beans so no beef. I also didn't notice that one chicken was missing, but I had walked a long way and didn't go back to correct order. I ate what I received (though I'm not a bean person) and they were good. The chicken I had pickup for someone else... I will revisit when I'm in the area again. Coming from Brooklyn is a long way👀 and will check the order before walking away.. its a curb side spot so you order from a window.

Green Olive Pizza: A Gluten-Free Oasis in a Kosher Desert Listen up, fellow New Yorkers. We all have those food memories, the tastes of childhood that cling to us like a good slice of pizza grease. For me, before the gluten-free life chose me, it was the falafel and pizza joints of Flushing, Queens. Now? Finding a decent gluten-free falafel, let alone a pizza, that doesn't taste like cardboard is a quest worthy of Indiana Jones. Enter Green Olive Pizza. This place, my friends, is a revelation. Kosher and a gluten-free haven? It's like they read my mind. The decor is pleasant, with a subtle nod to its Jewish theme – nothing over the top, just a comfortable, neighborhood vibe. The staff? So kind, so friendly, you'll feel like you've known them for years. But let's get to the important stuff: the food. As someone who remembers the glory days of gluten-filled falafel, I can tell you, Green Olive's gluten-free version is legit. It's got that same satisfying melt in your mouth cornucopia of flavors, that transports me back to those Flushing days. And if the gluten-free is this good, I can only dream about what their regular pizza is like. There are unique flavors here, for sure, but they're not trying to be fancy for the sake of fancy. Everything is well-balanced, delicious, and, most importantly, satisfying. For a gluten-free, New Yorker, Green Olive Pizza isn't just a restaurant; it's a lifeline. It's a place where I can enjoy the flavors I love without sacrificing my dietary needs or my memories. Thank you, Green Olive Pizza, for bringing a little bit of home back into my life.

Insanely good gluten free pizza. Lots of options. Highly recommend.

This review is for the vegan pie with cheese. First let me say the service was great, for the most part, and I really appreciate them offering a vegan pie (that is also gluten free!). Major props. I’ve seen some gnarly factory farming docs and have seen things I can’t unsee, hence eating vegan. That said, the only reason for the low stars is just that, it’s not worth $30 and I can’t justify spending it again. The tomato sauce was tasteless and the basil not fresh, and somehow it had like zero flavor. I doused it in chili oil and garlic powder to add flavor. Toppings are needed to make this worth your while. Offering a pie with, say, broccolini and chopped garlic (or even just cheese and mushrooms!) could make this more substantial. I almost got halal cart after this but just decided to call it a night.

Maria Hatzoglou

Love this place. Not only do they make great iced and hot drinks, but their desserts are so good. It’s difficult to get really good gluten-free sweets without sacrificing either texture or taste but they have cracked the code. Whether in-store or getting delivery, your order is delish and quick.

Kat Jones

Looking for a spot that had gluten free and vegetarian options and decided to try this spot. Everyone was so nice and the food hit the spot. Will definitely come back next time I’m in the area.

Perri MacKenzie

I usually like this place but I waited an hour and a half for them to make my food wrong twice. I ordered the spam bun gluten free and when it first came out after waiting 50min it had crunchy onions on it that are not gluten free and asked them to remake it. I ordered the noodles but once it was remade they gave me rice.

Sarah Frazier

Lovely neighborhood spot for delicious crepes (sweet and savory) and steak frites. Great French wines available at a reasonable price too. Good options for vegetarians and Gluten free

Went as a group of 8 and waited 30 minutes to be seated. The atmosphere was really nice but nothing that stands out. We waited another 30 minutes for our food to arrive and the portioning for the cost is unequal. It’s on the pricier side if you are looking for a decent meal in the areas. The burger itself is serviceable but the real issue was the gluten free pepperoni pizza which was a disappointment given its taste and size. Overall definitely better places out there if you are on a budget or well want a quicker service time.

Manuel B.

Great authentic Thai food! Lots of options in the menu that are fully gluten-free and clearly marked as GF. The server also made sure all our items were gluten free (everything from noodles to sauces)

Christopher

Had gluten free options and friendly service - the arepas were slamming too

Ezra Last Name

Over a half dozen times eating there and Gluen-free safe. Gluten free & regular food tastes great - I put it above shake shack with more of a homemade/southern taste. Recommended.

Whitney A.

This place is a fave — it’s cute, walkable to the park, and has such a varied menu. Also, it carries such delicious gluten-free treats! I try to get a lamington slice whenever I pass by. The bev menu is extensive and the coffee is great. Honorable mention to the lavender latte, it’s def worth a try! ☕️

Anna Holtzman

I just ate dinner here for the third time in 10 days because I love it so much! The people are so nice and friendly, the place is cozy and comfortable, and the food is great — and they have gluten-free options, which I was surprised by and it was a great bonus! Such a great place to eat in the neighborhood and they have much more than pizza, a full menu of delicious options for dinner!

Judy Gennarelli

Had the burger with fries, they had gluten-free devoted fryer! Haven't had fries in forever!! Food was great, atmosphere very smooth!!

Melissa R

✅Vibes ✅✅service, Kiyon our server was very helpful in giving me gluten free options on the menu. He was paitent at with me by the end of my delicious infused meal. The staff was great too! When our water was low it was filled, plates finished, they were cleared. Oh and the 🌲was fire!! 100% RECOMEND!! Coming back for some of their events for sure! ❤️🙏🏼

Julie Schroeder

Really enjoyed our dining experience. Had the tacos which is a special right now. They were really good. Drinks were delicious. Friends had burgers and flatbed, huge servings there. Would have liked to see a side salad or something with the tacos instead of just two tacos. The flourless Chocolate cake was delicious. They were very knowledgeable with what is gluten free and went and asked the chef if they weren't sure. I was very happy with the care they took in helping me find options that wouldn't make me sick. Will be back.

Karen Hussey

Very warm & friendly restaurant. I have celiac & I’m limited in what I can order. I had skirt steak with Creamy polenta & sautéed spinach. It was delicious & such a treat No sickness or reaction at all. I can’t wait to go back again!!

Riley McDanal

This is one of my favorite restaurants. All of the servers and staff are super nice, and the food is excellent. I’ve had dine-in service several times and regularly get takeout (maybe once a week on average). The food is high-quality and also very consistent in quality. There are also plenty of vegetarian and gluten-free options. I only have good things to say about this place!

Yelena Furman

I don't usually review places unless I've been there at least twice, but this one is well-earned! The service was exceptional, the food was delicious, and the restaurant was accomodating to dietary needs. The outdoor seating is also cute and much appreciated since Covid levels are quite high right now. I brought my friend here for a farewell dinner since she's moving away. We both have dietary needs and I called ahead to make sure they could accomodate. We really appreciated that their menu marks vegetarian and gluten free options. Plus the staff graciously worked with us on my allergies to garlic and onion. Our server was very attentive and sweet. She made sure we didn't feel rushed to leave since we were taking a while to talk and eat. We asked her to take a photo of us and she went out of her way to take several. The food was also great! They had a lot of vegan options, some of which I hadn't seen before at Thai restaurants. The prices are reasonable, even competitive compared to others in the area. We got lychee thai teas and split the summer rolls, subbing the sauce for plum sauce. I got the Sauteed String Beans & Eggplant and my friend got the Peanut Curry. The dishes were well-presented and the portions were generous. Make sure you note your spice level because their default curry spice may surprise you 😂 I'll definitely be back! Thank you for a lovely last night for us 🥰

Jamie Naggar

One of our favorite spots in Queens to grab lunch and a drink. Can't beat the view! Service and food are great. Clearly labeled menu makes this celiac foodie very happy.

Jackie Burka

Traveling to NY and had a luncheon at Il Bacco. My daughter has celiac and I was worried about her being able to eat off the selected menu. Our waiter, Dorel was wonderful and brought a gluten free option for every course and each one was that outstanding. My veal Marsala was delicious and authentic. Will definitely return.

paolo carcione

Great joint for NY's classic slice. The place is clean and welcoming, the pizza delicious (I personally love the garlic knots here). I look forward to gluten free and vegan options coming soon.

Aaron Stein

Very accommodating to gluten free. And very good service.

Megan Moskop

We ordered delivery for a New Year’s Eve feast, and each dim sum delicacy was just right! Custard tarts with flaky layers and not-too-sweet, not—too-eggy filling, flavorful crispy sesame balls, moist and generously filled roast pork buns, yummy seafood and veggie dumplings too. Everything was generously filled- not too gluten-y and flavorful, making each bite just right. Also relatively affordable and great customer service- our delivery came a long way- and made it here early, AND everything looked lovely. We hope to someday go in person! Thanks Dim Sum Garden!

Grace Greene

super accommodating. I have celiac disease, so I have to eat gluten free. they have an option to substitute rice noodles and went out of their way to give me meat and an egg that had not been cooked in soy sauce so that the entire meal was GF. thanks so much :)

Evan Picard

We do take out all the time. Theirs is the only non-cauliflower gluten free crust around. Sit-down experience service left a bit to be desired.

spexile

The pupusas are incredible, gluten-free, and the kind woman taking my order was very knowledgeable about celiac needs, even knowing about which spices might contain flour. Highly recommend!

Señora Jean-Pierre

The music, locations, and ambiance is legit. Tony gave us a wonderfully kind welcome. The waitress, Meg, was sweet & knowledgeable of gluten free options. Actually, she WAS the GF menu since there were none to offer. I'd suggest a dedicated fryer to expand limited gluten free options (I enjoyed the jackfruit/guac taco). Would visit again if they do.

Pál Ildikó

If you like good burgers for a reasonable price (compared to Manhattan) this is is the place to go. Vegetarian and gluten free (bunless) options are also available. Service is a bit slow at Friday evening.

Denise M

When in town we always make a trip to Reef. The food it delicious and large enough to share. The lemon potatoes and chicken skewers are both delicious. Good selection of wine and gluten free options in dinning with indoor and outdoor seating.

Jennifer B

Cute little spot to have lunch. Presentation and quality of food was great as well as the service. Only wish was more availability of vegan and gluten free items .

Mallory Q

Excellent gluten-free pasta! They were willing to make any pasta dish gluten-free for me. I had the farfalle al salmone, and it was delicious. Also, they have zoodles if you're watching carbs.

Sharon Elrod

We had a perfect breakfast here! I have celiac disease, so for me the buckwheat Crepe Henri with my filling choices of swiss cheese, roasted veggies and chicken was so good! The coffee was about the best I've had! Atmosphere was also perfect as was the service. Would recommend and return anytime!

Theodoros Theodorou

Gluten Free allergy friendly menu. Whoever is complaining about the price obviously doesn’t get out much. Fair price. Got the Loukaniko, Shrimp Loukoumades both amazing. Octopus balls not my cup of tea but a must try. Wife said the Spanakopita was great. Salmon was super fresh and perfectly cooked. On to the dessert... once again Gluten Free in a Greek restaurant most of the time means I’ve cream or sorbet. Got a PORTOKALOPITA, not sure if I spelled that right but I FREAKIN LOVED IT! Our server Kostantino was a pleasure to be around and I’ve never met such happy bus boys. Great food, Amazing staff. Highly recommended from the bald KYPREO.

Ran Brosh

Food is tasty but a bit too sweet. Many gluten free options. Dishes are quite expensive at $17 for chicken Tikka. Especially given the location is not that fancy.

Saul Kaiserman

Loved this place for lunch for two, was not as great with a large party on a Saturday night. The ceviche is excellent, nachos just average. Wide range of gluten free options, including GF tortilla chips

Winnie Y Cheng

Love that this place offers non-dairy drink options. Oatmilk mocha, vanilla oatmilk latte yuuuuuuum. Truffle tots are always added to any of my orders. The space is amazing after renovations (no more smelling like food) and they are open on Tuesdays!!! Yaaaaaay!!!! I hear they're going to offer gluten free pancakes soon yaaaay yaaaay yaaaay!!!

JOHN RALPH PORRECA

We found this nice place by chance, we were staying in a nearby hotel. We were intrigued by the all-wood interiors, it seemed like a welcoming environment and so it was. The food was excellent and the gluten-free sandwich was also excellent, served with particular attention. Accurate and attentive service. Excellent experience, I recommend it... I hope to be able to return.

Flo Jim

Pet Friendly!!! Pleasant staff , very attentive. Choices of food was a plus especially for those who are gluten intolerance. I enjoyed it most because I was able to bring my Jack Russell !!!

Mareenez Degraff

So excited to have a gluten free spot nearby! I can't believe I've lived in Rockaway all this time and never knew Raquel's was right here. I tried the blondie, an oatmeal/cranberry/white chocolate cookie and a cinnamon roll. They were definitely some of the best gluten free baked goods I've tasted. The textures were great, not at all the dry cardboard commonly marketed to us gluten free folks. All in all, so glad for the experience and I will be back.

Nathaniel Calloway

They have gluten free beer! And bingo

Lily Pan

As a gluten free girly I felt well taken care of by the staff! There were plenty of gf options to choose from and our server, David, was friendly and so attentive! And everything was DELICIOUS. For my birthday, they even gave me gf ice cream :) I can't wait to come here again!

Donna Anavian

Melt in your mouth steak in an incredible sauce. I also enjoyed the fish which was served with my favorite mango salsa. Service was quick and friendly and accommodated my gluten free requests.

matthew Osborne

Anthony and the servers make this place a gem. It is truly an amazing experience. Best Italian in the city. All of it was gluten free. Thank you Anthony.
