Been here many times. They have a large gluten free menu and staff are very knowledgeable about cross contamination. Ive had pasta, entrees, soup, desserts. If you're from Jersey they even have the traditional disco diner fries!

Marie Giacobbe

Amazing experience. Extremely kind staff. So welcoming, friendly and go over the top for us! Gave me free dessert and a candle for my birthday. All the food was incredible and for someone who is gluten free , it was a dream! Thank you Samba we will definitely be returning and recommending to everyone we know! And a beautifully decorated place as well.

Such a cute place! We are always on the look out for places that serve gluten free baked goods. The staff were super friendly and it was very reasonably priced! We got 5 things to try and they all were AMAZING!! The chocolate chip cookie was to die for!! If I lived near the area I would be a regular!

Jamie Suksta

This was my first time here and it was great. The place is cute and the staff was friendly. I bought a container of gluten free butter cookies and OMG they were amazing and delicious. The best I have ever had.

Catherine M

Gluten free tricolor cake and black & white cookies!

Eliza Horn

If you need gluten free food, they have an extensive menu. They're gluten free crab/shrimp cakes were the reason we make a 2 hour drive to eat there.

Bridget Corry Morse

Delicious breakfast at the beach edge. One had breakfast sandwich, one had 2 eggs and sausage, two split a sandy special. Sausage very good! Gluten free pancakes cooked perfectly. Over easy eggs perfect. Scrambled eggs done right. All breakfasts came out together. Coffee refills. Wait staff attentive. Highly recommended.

Susan Weinstock

Amazing gf food with gf kitchen

Donna Koenig

Great variety of good food. Extensive safe gluten-free options.

After finding ourselves searching for pizza with outdoor dining outside after 10pm, we had very few options local to Hoboken/JC. This is how we stumbled upon The Brick, and we were not disappointed! To provide context, I give this restaurant 5 stars for outdoor Italian dining after 10pm, but have further criticisms if that was not the case. Truthfully, we have overlooked The Brick for years, as the counter-service atmosphere (my reasoning for 2 stars) and fierce Italian dining competition didn’t give it any stand-out features. However, we were satisfied by our meal! We started with the complimentary garlic knots, which were addictive. We then had the fried calamari and chopped salad. The calamari was fresh and we did enjoy it all, though admittedly it was not competitive with other calamaris in the area. The salad was also everything we expected and a big portion which I liked. We then had a medium pizza, half chicken parm (with a personal modification of Vodka sauce instead of tomato) and half prosciutto-arugula. The crust was crispy, and the toppings went well together. I do think the toppings may have been a bit top-heavy for the pie, as I typically prefer a thinner NY style slice, but I still enjoyed it. We finished with the Spaghetti Fra Diavolo. It was good, but also not top tier Italian. Very spicy, if you’re into that! I was intrigued by the large vegan and gluten-free menu, which I had no idea about and would definitely recommend to folks with dietary restrictions. Overall, I think this is one of the best options for late-night sit-down outdoor Italian dining. But go any earlier, and the plethora of other options unfortunately outshines The Brick.

Best gluten free deli ever

Love it here because of all the gluten free options, and as a celiac it’s so appreciated! Axel was our server this time around and she was super sweet and provided good service. 10/10! ❣️

Michele Cervelli

The staff was very friendly and answered all of our questions. The avocado toast and tofu veggie scramble was delicious. We took some gluten free cookies and donuts to go.

tori hyder

This cake literally saved my birthday. I have loved cake since I was young but got recently diagnosed with celiac. For my 25th birthday I really wanted something special. She was able to put wording on my cake and it tasted so gooood holy moly! This is one if not the best cake I’ve ever had in my life. I will absolutely be back. 10000/10

Beth Epstein

Both my boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed the meatball appetizer and our pizzas. He ordered the 9-inch Detroit style gluten-free pizza, and I ordered the Meatball Ricotta Pizza. The food was fresh, delectable, and perfectly seasoned. The staff was extremely attentive and accommodating. The atmosphere was dark, modern, and sophisticated. We were seated right in front of the counter, which allowed us the opportunity to speak with the owner, who was absolutely delightful and gave us the history of the restaurant and himself.

As a family we dine out every weekend. Its very tough for our daughter as she has celiac disease. Whenever we do go out she is very limited on options. Then we came across Roberts scratch kitchen. When we got there we were told mostly everything on the menu is gluten free. My daughter was finally able to eat fried calamari which i havent seen her eat for about 2 years now. The 4 of us got different dishes and apps to share. Its also the first time we were able to share eachothers food in a while. Usually at home gluten free options and food taste bland, but not here. Everything here was amazing. We cannot wait to come back! You should have seen the smile and joy on my daughters face.

Anika Rao

Unfortunately I really disliked everything I tried. I got an açaí bowl with protein powder which tasted medicinal. I also got a vegan donut and vegan cupcake which both had a weird taste/texture. I also got a vegan chocolate chip cookie which tasted okay but was extremely hard and dry. I drove specifically to try this place as I am celiac and dairy free (for years) but unfortunately left disappointed.

Melanin Essence

It’s very difficult to find restaurants with gluten-free items. It’s much appreciative that they have gluten-free waffles and pancakes on the food was good.

rockyy torres

I had a hard time choosing, there were so many options! The staff was very nice and helpful and everything was 100% gluten free. Great dairy free and peanut free options as well. Get all your bakery goodies here with no worries! Typically other gluten free bakeries pastries become hard and stale very fast, these were soft and moist!

Danielle Rubino

Loveee it here. Expensive but worth it! All gluten free vegan.

Lauren Gedeon

Great place for a quick brunch! Many gluten free options, and the food is not greasy at all.

Melissa Van Wert

I had the gf chipped beef, potatoes and a side of sausage and it was AMAZING!!! I can’t stop thinking about it. My boyfriend had a regular tuna melt and loved it. He also loved all my gf food. The service was great.

Carol Skerrett

We were on a long drive up the East Coast and because I have celiac, we are always looking for gluten-free restaurants and bakeries. We went a few miles out of our way to see what Star Seed had to offer and boy were we glad we did. We walked out with carrot cake, Focaccia, bagels, snickerdoodles, and almond cranberry cookies. Gluten-free doesn’t mean not delicious and these delivered. Highly recommend even if you do not have allergies.

Megan Scott Verzi

Absolutely wonderful! My family tried their food for the first time a few days ago to celebrate my daughter‘s (celiac) birthday. I can’t tell you how wonderful it was to see her experience, without any worry, this amazing food. Aside from flat-out rejoicing in the fact that it’s certified gluten-free, the fusion of Indian and Mexican is heaven, and beautifully presented. We returned just 4 days later for a second round, we hadn’t had enough. Tried a different assortment from the menu and found even more new favorites! ( Actually, if everything on the menu blows you away, is it still safe to say they’re favorites?😆) I reached out via email to the owner to congratulate him on this amazing food and he responded personally with a call to thank me. Truly an amazing place and our new favorite restaurant, hands-down!!!

Anna Beak

Lovely atmosphere and knowledgeable staff, everything was delicious. Enjoyed being in an establishment that catered to dairy and gluten free diets without compromise of quality and taste. Eleven out of ten stars.

Suzanne Laterra

I have celiac disease & stop at Hot Dog Tommy's every year because his business is certified gluten free. When you order just let the staff know that you want you dog & fries gluten free. Service is excellent and so is the food. Thank you Hot Dog Tommy's for another delicious meal and always going the extra mile💗

Karen Van Wallendael

The gluten free donuts were amazing! My daughter has celiac disease and the staff took such care with my order! I was so glad to be able to bring these donuts home knowing the whole family would enjoy them and be safe! I ordered both regular and gluten free donuts- everything was delicious!!

Debbie H

I love that they serve Gluten Free food. They have a GF menu and even GF specials. As a celiac, it is difficult to find restaurants that can accommodate. Hannah G's staff let you know what you can and can't eat due to cross contamination too. Recently had the nectarine pistachio French toast, delicious. Recommend

Juli C

So delicious. In Michigan it is super hard to find Chinese restaurants that have GF food. I had the sesame chicken and it was amazing. The pork fried rice was good as well. Highly recommend and will most likely be back for another meal before we go home.

Lisamarie Chinchilla

Celiac girlie here, they have tons of GF options and they’re really yummy. <3 Christoper (our server) was wonderful!!

k m

Kizbees is amazing. I had my wedding cake made from them and an additional small gf/v cake for my vegan/df guests. I literally had to smuggle a slice out for me and the groom for later. My guests LOVED them both. Also every cupcake,cookie and pop tart I have ever had there is just so delicious. The customer service was so amazing.i have been diagnosed celiacs 15 years and they are 100% the best!

Paul Strohecker

The service was great and the food was all really good. As a person who is not gluten free/ vegan, I honestly really enjoyed all of the food. They make a really good tofu scramble!

gianna rocchetti

I love mahana fresh! This gluten free food is absolutely delicious. There is also plenty of vegan options as well as non vegan options. I would definitely recommend coming here!

Josie Domanchich

Food was excellent. Fresh, seasonal ingredients. So many gluten free options. Our server was pleasant and informative, but service was extremely slow, and the restaurant wasn't even busy. Our appetizer took 20 minutes. Each course was at least 20 mins between. Every time we asked for something, it took 10 minutes. Party of two, shared two appetizers and one entree, two desserts, no alcohol, took 90 minutes. Total bill with tip $112.

Jen M

I’ve eaten here safely 4 times with celiac (very sensitive to cc) I love the wings, fries, and fried Brussels! Can be a longer wait for a table but worth it for the extensive gf menu and safe prep.

John Fredsall

Very casual, nice people, great food. They have a very diverse menu which includes home style meals, great breakfasts and many choices for gluten free and vegetarian. Daily specials too!

Brian Dowd

Love the 502 Baking Company! They have excellent crumb cake options including gluten-free. Must try the peanut butter cookies, chocolate chip cookies, key lime pie and their brownies. Don't forget to try their scones and the sourdough bread. Highly recommended!

Jill K

As someone with Celiac disease, it’s a blessing having Papa Ganache in town. The staff is always friendly & helpful. I’ve tried a bunch of delicious things through the years, but faves are the gluten free crumb cakes, brownies, cake pops, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies & parmesan brioche.

Dennis McGrath

What a gem to have locally. Our Gluten free family members were able to enjoy dessert right along with us on Easter Sunday. We will definitely be back to support this family run small business.

Sarah

Absolutely delicious! The menu clearly marks gluten free items, and the staff is knowledgeable about celiac disease. I ordered an arepa with shredded beef and cheese. Yum! I’ll be back again!

Akshit Arora (अक्षित अरोड़ा)

loved that they had gluten free and vegan options!! very fast checkout process. Highly recommend mushroom medley. Friendly people at the checkout counter, seating was readily available. The place was very clean! Highly recommend!

Stephanie Garcia

Spanish and English: I had the vegan cachapa, the apple pie panda, which were really good, and the veggie empanada was just right. The vibe in the place was very chill but busy. There were plenty of options to choose from if you are gluten-free. They were accommodating. The person at the register didn't really know the ingredients well. They got part of my order wrong, so just be mindful to repeat what you are ordering to the person at the register a couple of times. Their food was delicious. I would go again. There is indoor seating. Very quaint with lots of Hispanic-inspired artwork. There is not a lot of seating.

Alana Hoffert

I have celiac disease and this place was great! I chose it because of that, but they had a whole gluten free menu. I haven’t had fried food in a long time, but they have a dedicated fryer and the mozerella sticks are great! Highly recommend.

Isabella Buckman

As someone with a gluten allergy, I love eating at Barrio! The team is so knowledgeable about dietary restrictions — I feel like there’s something for everyone here, so it’s a great place to bring a big group.
