My family is travelling to NYC later this year for vacation.  My husband was recently diagnosed with celiac's. Looking for recommendations on restaurants with good gluten free options and who are careful regarding cross-contamination?

Also, any advice on how to travel and enjoy the City without getting sick. 

Especially interested in an Italian restaurant with good gluten free options.  

We plan to stay near Times Square. 

Thank you!

I have not been to this restaurant myself but others I know have and recommended it.  I plan on a trip to NYC within the next year and will be checking this place out!  I have no idea if this is close to where you will be staying but I know I have traveled some distance for safe, gluten-free food and there is always the subway......

Here's another that supposedly serves the world's best gluten-free pizza:

I have been to NYC before and never had a problem finding good food to eat and I did not get sick.  When you go, please let us know how everything went for you!

Lots of good threads on this - make sure and do a search.  I recommend Little Beet (100% gluten-free) and Hu Kitchen (Paleo/gluten-free) for quick meals.  Little Beet is in Times Square area.  Hu Kitchen just north of the Village.  Little Beet also has other restaurants.   Risotteria downtown.  Also Bareburgers are everywhere (including Times Square) and they have gluten-free fries in addition to a decent gluten-free bun.

For pizza near midtown (not far from Times Square) I go to Pizz'arte on W. 55th.  They do have regular pizza, too, but they're careful about cross contamination and it's a delicious thin crust.

Many restaurants have Gluten Free pasta and most know how to do it right.  Trattoria Dell'Arte near Carnegie Hall is a nicer one.

NYC is pretty easy to be Gluten Free.  It's why I haven't moved.  Have a great visit.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      CT with contrast.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
