For Christmas I am most likely getting to go to New York!! We will be staying by Rokefeller (you can see the ice skating from out the window!) Are there any good gluten free resturaunts around there, or actually anywhere in NYC? I will be with 4 people that eat gluten, so it would be great if it was somewhere that specialized in gluten-free but tasted super good! Thanks for any sugestions!

NY is celiac heaven :)

There aren't any restaurants right by Rockefeller Center that have a gluten free menu, but there are tons of options. For a quick bite for lunch there is Hale & Hearty in Rockefeller Center (they have soup & salad). All the ingredients for their soup is on the back of the card with the name of the soup, and you can just ask to see the card. Almost all of their soups are gluten-free, with the obvious exceptions (anything with pasta). There are Hale & Hearty locations all over the city, but there is one right there.

You can take the F train which is right in RC to West 4th street, to Risotteria, which has gluten-free pizza! A favorite of everyone.

One of my favorite restaurants is Bistango. You can either take a cab to or take a short walk to Grand Central and then take the 6 train to 28th street and walk down a few block. They can make just about anything on their menu gluten-free and I heard recently started making pizza aswell. This is a great place for a nice lunch or a casual dinner. But if you go for dinner make reservations. It's a small place and a neighborhood favorite, so it gets filled up. The food is awesome. They even serve bruschetta on gluten-free bread that is amazing.

Another favorite of mine, is Lumi. This is the perfect place for a nice romantic dinner or just a quiet dinner with a group of friends. It's a wonderful atmosphere and the food is incredible.

Another place with great gluten-free pizza is Mozzarelli's. They are on 23rd Street, b/t Park & Madison. You can either take the 6 train or the N/R to 23rd Street and it will put you just down the street.

Check out this site for more restaurants in NYC with gluten-free menus, but those are some of my favorites.

Don't be afraid to go to restaurants that don't have a gluten-free menu though. I eat at restaurants all over the city and have only been glutened once. I simply tell the server that I am allergic to wheat & gluten. Many know it's celiac; and even when they don't this is not the first time they've heard it. NY'ers are used to anything and everything - not much phases us or comes across as high maintenance ;)

Thank you so much! That was such a huge help!!

Yeah, we will def. try out non-gluten-free resturaunts, but since I am from Texas and dont know of anywhere that serves gluten-free pizza or anything, I figured that I might as well try a couple of places out!

Thanks again!

Ditto on this!!!! Even my gluten eating husband thought the breadsticks were some of the best he's ever had!

Sambuca has excellent Italian food, I shared a family style sized pasta dish with a non-celiac friend and she couldn't even tell it was made with rice pasta. They also have pretty good bread and an amazing gluten free brownie. The service is always great, and they go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable and your food is safe. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who misses a good Italian meal!

      I so appreciate you talking about this. Honestly I’m so sick the most part of the last 15 years, I’m going to cross reference your list with my own. Celiac since 24 yrs old diagnosed in 1997. I just saw a specific celiac GI specialist at the celiac disease center in Chicago and when I told her all the food reactions I was having she said she believed me but there was no clinical evidence to support my reactions(I felt so unseen, she recommended I see a gut psychologist, what the heck). I react with severe body aches to bloating and dizziness to exhaustion:  most lectins except berries and low lectin veg, no eggs, no nightshade veg, no dairy, all carbohydrates including no gluten-free carbs or grains, though a little coconut flour seems ok now, need to test other non grains, certain alcohols that say gluten-free but looking into their process further I get horribly sick if distilled through a gluten grain example Costco vodka….. Because I had an upper and lower GI in 1997(I was 24 and 84#s) and my GI doc came back with celiac disease, this new doc suggested I may not be a celiac. Is running some blood test. Omg. I can’t even. I’m so beyond frustrated.

      Thank you both for your input! trents: yes I completely agree, it's simple anatomy. The walk-in doctor I saw even said to me, "you cannot get exposure or get sick if it only got in your respiratory system" to which I replied, "If I inhaled it, it's in the mucous I swallow that leads to my gut." I was honestly baffled I had to explain that to her. Thanks for your comments! Scott Adams: Thanks for your advice, yes I agree I think that's ultimately what I have to do especially while times are getting tougher in this current economy! Hopefully I find something new and equitable or better, in a quick manner! Please send prayers and best wishes for me to find a new job quickly, I wore the N95 masks today and it seems like I'm gonna be okay but I literally have to hazmat wash my clothes and myself when I get home. I think my current exposure will have time to recover while I'm wearing the masks at work. Thank you all again!

      Advice please

      Parent-to-parent, I hear your exhaustion and worry loud and clear – what you’re describing goes far beyond typical toddler troubles. Your daughter’s screaming night pain, terrible bloating, stalled growth, and constant infections are textbook red flags for celiac disease or another serious gluten-related condition. While her blood test came back negative, there are critical reasons not to rule it out yet. First, celiac tests are notoriously unreliable in kids under 3 – their tiny immune systems often don’t produce enough antibodies to register on standard blood work, especially if she wasn’t eating consistent gluten beforehand (which you mentioned was a struggle). Her iron deficiency alone is a glaring clue, as it’s one of the most common signs of undiagnosed celiac in little ones. The fact that she’s already dairy/soy-free yet still suffering suggests something bigger is at play. It could still be celiac (a pediatric GI should consider an endoscopy with biopsies, the gold standard for diagnosis), or possibly non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) – which doesn’t show up on tests but can cause identical agony. Her recurring mouth ulcers and infections also hint at the immune dysfunction seen in celiac. Until you see the specialist, I’d quietly start a gluten-free trial (after documenting her current symptoms carefully with photos/videos of the bloating and pain episodes). If you see improvement in 3-4 weeks, that’s powerful evidence to bring to the doctors. You’re not being dramatic – you’re being the exact advocate your daughter needs. If the pediatrician brushes you off, look them in the eye and say: “What else could explain ALL these symptoms together? If it’s not celiac, what’s our next step to stop her suffering?” Keep pushing – moms’ instincts are rarely wrong about this stuff. For now, focus on small wins: snap daily pics of her belly to show the distension, ask for a fecal calprotectin test (checks gut inflammation), and know this internet stranger is rooting for you both. She’s lucky to have you fighting for her.
