Really lovely place for a healthy, delicious meal. I’m gluten-free so I appreciated that that was the default (instead of having to parse through the menu to find the GF options).
My partner and I ordered the Tibetan Mama and Saag Bota. Both were flavorful and we loved that they were filling but didn’t leave us feeling heavy afterwards. The staff were also friendly and welcoming, and helpfully walked us first-timers through the menu.
We’ll happily eat at Le Botaniste again!
An Italian gem, lost in a sea of competition, jumps to life with its remarkable risotto, unrushed ambiance, and eye-catching decor.

I order take out from here all the time but recently went in person. They have the best homemade marinara sauce I've ever had. My friend who dined with me can't have gluten. She ate her entire bowl of gluten free pasta, which was massive. I will order from here again and again. They have a few tables out front if you want to take in the elements.
Bustling with charm, this cozy spot serves up impeccable pasta in a vibrant setting, making reservations a must for a delightful experience!

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing! The Cacio Pepe was the best ever! The gluten free version was as good , just a different pasta . The lasagna was crazy good, the best in nyc to date ! Make sure you make a reservation, it’s small and busy. Full bar, great wine selection. The cappuccino was made perfectly, the cannoli was the perfect finish ! Jessica was our server, friendly, knowledgeable and very nice. Enjoy
Charming family-owned spot with hand-painted murals, fresh handmade pasta, and a warm atmosphere that locals love for its authentic vibes.

I absolutely love going to Mediterraneo! My go-to order is the gluten-free margherita pizza (the crust is extra crispy) and a fresh salad — the perfect combo. The vongole is also amazing!!! This family-owned gem is a true neighborhood treasure. Melania is the warmest, most welcoming presence, she gives the best hugs. It truly feels like walking into your favorite aunt’s home for dinner. Places like this are what give the Upper East Side its charm and sense of community. Can’t wait to return!
We booked lunch at this place because one of the group had seen the film of the same name. Generous portions: we couldn't finish our plate, and we had to share the dessert, which was equally large, to be able to taste it. Gluten-free dishes available. Precise and attentive staff.
Unsure which was better: the tapas or the service! Our server asked us about allergies and was extremely accommodating by letting us know exactly which tapas contained gluten and separating one piece when possible etc. The sangria was quite nice despite not typically enjoying sangria as it was not overly sweetened. Would definitely recommend for a date or a group!
A cozy spot known for exceptional meals and attentive service, perfect for a memorable dining experience in NYC.

My wife and I had dinner at Finestra on a Friday evening. I had the salmon with vegetables and my wife had the shrimp risotto. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the vegetables were delicious. My wife enjoy d the risotto and we both agreed it was one of the better meals we have had in NYC. Excellent service as the waitress was attentive to my wife’s celiac issues. Highly recommend Finestra.
Experience a local gem where every detail feels personal, from perfectly crafted cocktails to thoughtfully made dishes that delight the senses.

There is just so much more care in everything they do at this restaurant….We felt extremely special being guests at this restaurant. Well, we felt like what we are - part of the neighbourhood community. Everyone was so attentive. Tony in particular is an icon! We were there for a late lunch. I had the watermelon mojito and it was made with fresh watermelon. The bartender checked in personally whether I liked it or not. It’s so rare for such great service to occur! My cocktail had a perfect level of alcohol, freshness and sweetness. The food was interesting but not in a way that it is fussy. It just felt healthy and made with an absolute sense of care that you felt in every bite. The individual tastes of the varied ingredients were exquisite. You could tell that the owner personally developed the bread recipe. The air holes and bounciness of the bread were to be admired! The octopus and seared calamari left me waking up this morning with a wish to go back for dinner right this evening. Oh, I should mention that we also had a delicious gluten free clam pasta and a great mixed salad. It’s the combination of exquisite homemade food made with love and sprinkled with care that should make you want to go there.
A welcoming spot featuring attentive service and a focus on individual guest needs, making it a go-to for those seeking a reassuring dining experience.

I went here for the first time today and they were incredibly helpful answering questions about my gluten allergy. They offered gluten free bread toasted in a clean pan on the stove, and made all of my food (eggs potatoes and bacon) in a clean pan. The waitress even brought out the bacon ingredients for me to double check it was gluten free. I felt very safe eating there and would highly recommend to anyone looking for affordable gluten free food in the area, which is so hard to come by!!!
This Mediterranean-inspired café offers a cozy vibe with a diverse menu, including unique pancake stacks and a delicious twist on the classic tuna sandwich.
Amazing service that impresses every time, with staff who are super knowledgeable and truly care about enhancing your experience.

Have dined here many times, but I felt compelled to write about the incredible service we received by our server Georgios. I mean wow. He knew the menu front to back, every detail. Everything he recommended- we ordered. I brought 5 others who have never been here before and they were in awe of not only the food, but the 5 star service we received. My sister in law has celiacs disease and our server fully accommodated this and knew exactly which dishes she could and couldn’t have. I believe our server should be recognized for this by his employer! He is truly someone who loves his job and desires to provide excellence.

My new favorite pizza place in the neighborhood! Probably one of the best gluten-free pizzas I’ve ever had! The perfect thin crust gluten-free with a great red pizza sauce. My boyfriend who isn’t gluten-free loves their pizza slices as well. The staff is so kind, great atmosphere and assortment of food and drink selections from coffee, salads, pizzas and Greek pastries. In the pic I posted I got the gluten free york ave twister and added pepperoni. 11/10 amazing!
