Hi,

I'm trying to collect recommendations of restaurants and places that you had visited and enjoyed a really good gluten free food/service in New York City.

I would really appreciate if you could write me your recommendations.

Please let me know if it was totally gluten free or it may have traces of gluten.

Thanks a lot :)

I know there are a few completely gluten-free restaurants and bakeries.  You might try googling " gluten free New York".  Also, check the website " find me gluten free".  You can read reviews and find places that you can investigate further.

There's a place called "colors restaurant nyc" that is entirely gluten free. (And pretty tasty)

Wow, EJReeves, what a comprehensive list.

I'll add that I think the Little Beet has opened another branch or two - totally gluten-free.  I didn't know that I could eat at The Melt Shop, so I will definitely look into that.

I'll also recommend this place called Arte'pizza or something like that on W. 55th just East of Sixth Ave/Ave. of the Americas.  It's a bit fancier, but they have a delicious thin crust gluten free pizza and seem to know their stuff.  

I feel pretty safe at 5 Napkin Burger (though I don't bother with the bun) and their sister restaurant, Nice Matin on the UWS.

 Also, on the UWS, Parm has at least one very good salad with chicken, and gluten free pasta - their answers to my many questions are always knowledgeable.  I eat there frequently, with no issues.  Papardella has Gluten Free pasta and Gluten Free garlic bread.

On the Upper East Side, there's a little cafe called Dulce Vida on Lexington and 82nd that has wonderful gluten free empanadas along with Colombian entrees.  The servers are hit and miss with answers, but I think the owners are very gluten-free conscious.

Just returned from NYC a few days ago. We enjoyed eating at Pie by the Pound (4th Avenue between 12th and 13th Street) The pizza was good. Fun atmosphere. Nothing fancy. The most exciting thing for me was the beer selection. I've never seen 10-15 gluten-free brands to choose from in a restaurant! The website has an impressive gluten-free section, explaining celiac and intolerance (piebythepound.com) and I believe the owner is gluten-intolerant. 

My two Celiac children have been gluten-free since their diagnosis, about 10 years ago. I'm just now discovering and dealing with my own intolerances. As knowledgeable as I am about Celiac and with all my experience with gluten free travel, I'm amazed how difficult (still doable!) it is when you are the person with a special diet. I must have told my kids a hundred times recently how proud I am of them and the way they navigate gluten-free situations. When my doctor said no gluten, dairy or eggs, I would've panicked, had I not had experience with gluten-free diet. 

Having said that, there IS a tiny, but irritating difference with changing your diet as an adult, trying to eat in a restaurant... While I'm happy to feel better and healthier than I've ever been, I find that I'm more eager to find restaurants that provide substitutes for the food I've eaten for over 40 years. I now understand the disappointment you feel when a restaurant (or reviewers for that matter) publish "gluten-free food!" and you arrive to find out they've limited the menu to a few items that don't contain gluten, in the first place. I guess part of the game is the usual extra research of calling ahead and looking at the online menu.

If anyone has other strategies or verbiage they use when working with a restaurant, I'd welcome advice!

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      The previous post did not come through right. I wonder if tingling burning feet are part of it.. I'm not sure if it's the med reaction that people with gluten intolerance get or the food we ate  It's frustrating because a person who did not want to admit to himself I had this condition wanted me to eat this chicken sandwich and now I'm stuck with a variety of symptoms plus now I'm hungry on top of it..  I'm new to this so I forget that "one bite" of the wrong thing can hurt us.😔. Do we stop eating if someone exposed us to gluten ??  My stomach is rumbling but my joints hurt ...  It's weird because I can feel the anxiety coming on.  I get joint problems ,  I don't know if anyone ever got hot flashes?? I suppose if it affects people head to toes you can get that too.   It's weird...hard to decipher what is what.   Also how long do I have to deal with this attack??  Makes me feel like not getting up out of bed.  I get too many symptoms which  horrible.  Thank you for your response..

      still struggling with cravings

      By wellthatsfun · Posted

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.

      I wasn’t clear, glucagon and gadolinium were intravenous. I drank about 5 cups of the prep during 45 minutes. I feel very tired now, probably partly because I was nervous, and partly because I had to fast for 6 hours beforehand and wasn’t very hungry when I got home.
