Top 50 Gluten-Free Dining Spots Across New York City

Rachel Levine

Great experience for my son with food allergies (wheat, peanut, tree nut, sesame). He was happy to have so many options! Everyone else was very happy with their pasta as well.

Zaphirah Katt

Delicious!! And my friend has gluten-fee and it was really good.

Rachel Mascola

Friedman’s was a great dinner restaurant to check out, it is close to Times Square with high-quality food options, at a much more reasonable price! In addition they cater to people with dietary restrictions such as gluten free!

EMIL MAMEDOV

By no doubt highly recommend if you are in the area. Very safe for allergies, fully gluten free. All the food was fresh and every bite surprised me more than it was before. Usually I am not a big fan of raw fish and sushi but this place really opened my mind to explore more! Sitting at the bar and not the table really made the experience more special.

Johanny Santana

The food is great. We ordered the arepa de queso, patacon de plátano maduro con pollo desmechado, arepa de choclo con chicharrón, and a bunch of sides. The best part honestly may be the sauces they bring to the table (update: you can buy them to take home!!!!) 10/10 recommend Everything we ordered was gluten free except the arepa de choclo and french fries

Patrick Mac Cann

This is my new favourite fast casual lunch spot, and it's all naturally gluten free!

Lou Jacob

There's really no reason to go here unless three conditions exist; 1. You keep kosher. 2. You're Gluten Free and Kosher. 3. You have money to light on fire. The menu is amazingly unimaginative and, honestly, lazy. The quality of the food is...fine. But this is NYC. So, really, by that standard, not really fine. And the prices, for what you get, are off the chart. Yes, there's a kosher upcharge, but $29 for a burger, no fries included, is absurd. The place is doing business as it was packed with well-heeled UWSiders and younger ones with their parents' credit card. So, perhaps they're thinking why change it if people are laying out for this. Sorry, you seem like nice people. But it's just gotta be better.

Mel Harris

Wow delicious sandwich and Rosemary fries - Celiac friendly.

Bethany Bishop

Celiac friendly

Carina Fourmyle

Great options for vegan brunch. Although the vegan BLT was unexpectedly sweet, the quality of the food was excellent.i would return to try another vegan dish. Recommended for groups with various dietary needs (vegan, gluten free, nut free, etc). Service was great!

NYC Treats

One of my favorite restaurants on the UES by far! The mac & cheese can be made gluten free and it's AMAZING. We also loved their roasted artichoke salad, paella, tuna tartare, and hamburger! The cozy atmosphere here is unmatched and this place is truly a hidden gem. Highly recommend making a reservation because it's definitely a popular spot

This place is one of the best in New York. Gluten free. Extensive menu. Superbly delicious … whether breakfast or sushi or dinner or fried chicken. They really do it great. DoorDash or dine in … I’M in. You should be too. Jay and Bailey are fabulous. Give them a raise. They remember my name and order every time. Great job yall. Keep it up.

Manuela Rios

Really enjoyed the bandeja paisa here! As a celiac it’s nice to have the gluten free guarantee even for foods I know don’t typically have gluten. Service is great and friendly. Feels like to hear Colombian Spanish, made me feel right at home.

kim heneghan

Great small counter place with all GF options inside a food court

E. L (Ny Foodie)

This place has that downtown Vibe , good music , large crowds and decent food, my Son is Gluten Free and they had a large selection of GF item and good salad we enjoyed our pizza and pasta dish like the squid Ink pasta and Kale salad.

Mary Alexander

Friendly service, menu was family friendly- gluten free menu was available- waitstaff asked about allergens. Lots of seating, wasn’t busy when we went so service was quick.

Chelsea Austen

We had booked an outdoor table but the weather did not cooperate. They saved us seats at the bar and we really loved watching all the food come out and the pizzas go in the oven. Our server, Gokce was lovely. She was able to list off everything that could be done gluten free and I appreciated her confidence. She was attentive even though we were seated at the bar. We got three different pasta dishes: the carbonara, the lamb pasta, and the wild boar pasta. All were delicious. The panna cotta dessert was amazing!! Definitely recommend

Kimberly George

I’ve loved Springbone since it opened, and it’s exciting to have so many shops now. As someone with Celiac, having healthy gluten free food is such a gift. I’m so grateful!

Esther Egwu

If I had to describe Bua Thai Ramen & Robata Grill in one word, it’d be amazing!! The food was a 10/10 and the workers were super accommodating. Halal, gluten free, and vegan options available. One of the best upper east sideWould highly recommend!!!

Daniel

We’re visiting NYC and NoodleLove was a total win for our gluten-free kid! My 7-year-old with celiac loved the Korean Fried Chicken tenders — super crispy, flavorful, and completely safe. It’s rare to find gluten-free that feels this indulgent. Friendly staff, cool vibe, and a menu we’ll be dreaming about back home. Don’t miss it!

Cattryse Schlagel

Pizza was great, Gluten Free crust was fantastic. Hot, cheesy and a bit greasy, exactly what we were looking for. Picture is of the gluten free crust.

Neil Frutuoso

I thought the breakfast sandwich was great, they definitely use fresh ingredients. The wife got an avocado toast and the egg was a bit undercooked, over easy is ok but the white wasn’t cooked and when broken it leaked a clearish liquid. They do have an assortment of gluten free baked goods but if you have celiac please note they are cross contaminated which they lady behind the counter told us.

Daphne Shen

For a million dollar fried chicken investment, I am both surprised and not surprised by the quality of the dishes and the price point. Awesome decor and vibe. Service is… a bit scattered. To cut the chase, three most important things: 1️⃣ do the dinner bucket deal (no bucket for lunch) 2️⃣ the golden original is the best 3️⃣ try the green cilantro aioli (came with chicken) with the lettuce salad (part of banchan), you will thank me later We did all three flavors, and both of us agree the golden original is the best. For a gluten free fried chicken, this is insanely crispy and good: GBD, golden, brown, delicious. The chicken inside is crazy moist and juicy. The other two… I forgot their flavors but I wasn’t impressed. The sauces are: 1. Jun Verde – a creamy, citrusy green cilantroy mayo sauce. Our fav!! 2. Honey Mustard – a sweet and tangy sauce, tasted very wasabi forward. 3. Pepper Parm – savory with a peppery kick and Parmesan flavor. If you pair this with lettuce 🥗 , you get the Caesar salad. 4. Gochujang BBQ – a smoky, spicy Korean-style barbecue sauce. The most underwhelming one to my personal preferences. Chicken consommé with chives was great, both as appetizer and palate cleanser. Banchans include 1. Sweet sour radish (my Korean said it is sacrilegious not to include it with fried chicken) 2. Celery 3. Kimchi 4. Lettuce salad The perilla oil noodle it came with the set is worth noting. Even if jt costs, I would be happy paying for it. It is umami, flavorful, and cold and refreshing compared to the fried 🍗 + sauce. The finisher is a fro-yo topped with very tangy (positive way) yuzu sauce. Loved it. Came very very slow though. Definitely a steal if you can scoop a reservation and do the bucket deal. Ofc if you order other things (aka. golden bugbears etc), it won’t be much of a steal, but you get delicious food either ways.

R H Morales

Customer service was great. Ordered for pickup. Had the gluten free sesame chicken and general tso - both were delicious. Would go again.

Delailah Mohammed-Khan

$10-20 /pp To say this place is one of the best health focused restaurants is an understatement. Not only were the ingredients all natural and delicious but they were consistent. I also had the best gluten free chocolate cookie from there! Would recommend!

Taylor Lupini

100% gluten free! We got the Mexican bowl and the Mediterranean Chicken Bowl, both were very good. Also had the Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk cookie which was good for a gluten free cookie. Definitely coming back here again!

Timothy Shows

Mama’s curry was out of control. Fresh veggies and kimchi in the coconut based dish. Everything VEGAN and GLUTEN FREE.

Carver Folkes

Simply—and irresistibly—delicious. I had the Full Therapy: a half bowl of three different dishes (Pasta Bolognese, Chili Sin Carne, and Mediterranean Pasta), and each one was incredible. Light, flavorful, and thoughtfully composed—every ingredient had its moment to shine. I also tried their refreshing lemonade and black tea, along with two desserts: the omega-3 chocolate raw brownie and the raspberry raw cake. Both were sweet, filling, and richly flavored—hard to pick a favorite. The ambiance is lovely. While the service wasn’t flawless, the staff clearly does their best to ride the wave of occasionally difficult Upper East Side customers with grace. If someone behind the counter seems a little short, it might just be residue from the last entitled interaction—so I give them full forgiveness. I ended up spending over three hours here enjoying the atmosphere and the menu. It’s a must-visit for anyone seeking clean, organic, gluten-free vegan food in New York.

Kate Riddle

Nearly all GF menu and celiac safe

Leann Parente

Not gonna lie, I was skeptical when I realized it was vegan. I got a latte with almond milk and a gluten free savory biscuit and it was terrific! I don’t think I’ve ever had anything gluten free that was so moist. Will def come back and try some of their lunch items. Yum!

Liberty Island's Undiscovered Treasure: Statue of Liberty Crown Café The **Crown Café** on Liberty Island is an excellent option if you're visiting the Statue of Liberty and want to find a terrific place to eat. This café provides a nice dining experience with a range of delectable alternatives, and it is conveniently positioned close to one of the most famous monuments in the world. The efficiency of the café is the first notable feature. I anticipated long lines because of the large number of guests, but the service was pleasantly prompt and efficient. In addition to making sure everything was stocked and clean, the staff was kind and accommodating. For a tourist destination, the culinary choices is impressive. There is something for everyone, including hot dinners, traditional American favorites, and fresh salads and sandwiches. Their **Statue of Liberty Burger** was delicious, juicy, and cooked to perfection when I tried it. They had generous portion sizes and delicious fries. The yogurt parfaits and fresh fruit cups looked fantastic for a lighter choice. Additionally, they provide gluten-free and vegetarian options, which is advantageous. The Crown Café's outside seating is among its nicest features. It's a special experience to eat while taking in views of the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline. After all the sightseeing, it's a tranquil respite. The food is of higher quality than you would find at a normal tourist café, and the prices are fair given the location. Crown Café is worth a visit whether you're in the mood for a full meal, a coffee break, or a quick snack. The experience of visiting Liberty Island is enhanced by this café. It's a must-see when touring the Statue of Liberty because of the excellent cuisine, first-rate service, and incomparable location!

Came to Palma because of rave reviews of their GF pastas and GF food. Overall they had a great selection of Gf foods and also listed what was DF. Sensitive to allergies. Service was pretty basic but the atmosphere was lovely. Mixed reviews on the food (see below) but would definitely return and would recommend to anyone with gluten and dairy dietary restrictions. Our appetizers were fantastic- had the fritto misto and the octopus- perfect for sharing for 4 people. There were plenty of GF main options, but only two pastas labeled GF (although the GF fettuccine can be made with any sauce). I was very underwhelmed by the GF fettuccine with mushrooms and truffles. The Gf pasta was cooked “al dente” but that made it a weird texture. Not all of the mushrooms were well cooked. My daughter had the parpadelle bolognese and the pasta was somewhat falling apart. My husband was happy with the ravioli although it was a small portion. Overall 4/5 on the food, some hits and misses but we generally had an enjoyable meal.

Carl Patrick Hulick

I have Celiac and have never had a problem the many times I’ve eaten at 5 Napkin Burger. They have a dedicated gluten free fryer and the gluten free bun is very good. I’ll definitely be eating there again.

Ada Dunn

Yes they have gf pasta and sauces are GF.

Korie Austin

Had the best experience and food with my gluten allergy! Ate to my hearts desire! Will be back!

Kunal Desai

My son and I are both vegetarian and we both have Celiac Disease. I highly recommend for anyone with Celiac Disease who is looking for variety of options.

chloe mooney

I’m gluten,Dairy, egg free and they had multiple options for me without having to make many adjustments to the way it is served. Great service

gabriel vaz

best gluten free that my wife have tried

Eldad Davidov

Excellent, healthy, all gluten free

Kathy N.

The manager was very nice to let me sit in the cozy bar area tonight thank you ! I couldn’t decide what iced tea to have so they let me combine the hibiscus with the sugar free black tea- so good on a super hot night ! I had a nice dinner , the only thing is I really wish you could have gluten free pancakes at night too not just in the morning . I’d be here more often if you added that to your menu all the time . Please consider it since the people next to me also wanted gluten free pancakes . I’m sure on the regular I’m not the only one who wants this .

Shel Wise

Most authentic oven-fired neopolitan pizza in downtown BK; BEST GLUTEN FREE crust in the CITY! The evening ambiance and heated / covered backyard are as delectable as the food. This has become a special treat for date night--it feels like a slice of Italy 🍨

Fran Fran

Highly recommended, they also have a gluten-free menu. The portions are exaggerated and 3-4 people eat each one. We liked it a lot and very good atmosphere

Svet

Delicious give it a try! Some non typical food options also available if you are tired of the same old from other places. Also all gluten free which is a plus if you have intolerance

Kimberly Goughnour

Good overall, good gluten free pasta. But I find it to be a bit over-rated. Desserts are not that good. Flavor is always off. They’ve messed up my delivery orders multiple times with no attempt to make it right.

Lily T

This place has been around the upper east side for a very long time and it never disappoints! It's definitely pricier than other Chinese places in the area but they serve higher quality food that is less greasy, less sweet, and less salty. They also serve dim sum all day. With all that being said, some of their dishes are still catered to the western palate but it is still better than other places in the area. Here are some of my favorite items from them Fried egg rolls. Their egg rolls are legit. It's giant, filling and crispy. Hot and sour soup. Very good and filling. Perfect for colder days. Walnut prawns. Very big prawns that are flavored in this nice sweet and savory white sauce with fried walnuts. Sautéed pea shoot. Very good while getting your fibers in. Shrimp with black bean sauce and mined pork. Very good and flavorful. Turnip cakes. Delicious and crispy. Chives and shrimp patty. Lots of flavor. They also have lots of gluten free options here. Service is always top notch. Overall a solid spot on the UES

Glo QC Marull

We had lunch there today! Salad and a burger with gluten-free bread!! Both were VERY delicious!! And Chaz's service was excellent!! He's a genius!!

Guido Colzani

Great place for an all day breakfast and more. The vibes are super old school Newyorker style. Good coffee! And GLUTEN FREE options. I definitely recommend it.

Nathan Nelson

Best sushi I’ve ever had. The plant-based sushi was even more flavorful than non-vegan sushi. I also appreciated the gluten-free options they had because my partner has Celiac.
