Gluten Free In Valhalla, Ny

[Ms. Celiac]

Does anyone know of any gluten free bakeries and/or restaurants in Valhalla, NY or the nearby surrounding area?

None specifically in Valhalla that I know of, but there are a bunch of places in Westchester with gluten-free menus.

Last night I went to Maud's Tavern in Hastings. Food was ok, but good enough that I'm willing to try it again.

There are 2 Chinese restaurants in Westchester with gluten free menu. Golden Wok in Ardsley (my favorite; I'm there atleast once a week) and Ray's Cafe in Rye Brook.

Ciao in Eastchester (only went once when I was first diagnosed and didn't like it; but thinking of giving it another try since that was 3 years ago).

Epsteins in Hartsdale (there is another location in Yonkers, but haven't started the gluten-free menu yet. Will soon).

There is ofcourse Outback in White Plains (across from The Westchester, in the smaller mall with Toys r Us; right by Whole Foods). And Legal Seafoods in the City Center.

PF Changs in the Westchester.

A couple other restaurants I frequent that don't have gluten-free menus, but they are extremely accomodating and understanding of my needs are, Santa Fe in Tarrytown and Noda's in White Plains. Noda's I bring my own San-J soy sauce and they cook my food in the back in a clean pan. Even though I think they pretty much remember me at this point, I always bring this along with my Triumph dining card. (Just incase).

Santa Fe is the best Mexican food and always so helpful. All the staff is extremely knowledgeable.

Oh, another restaurant that doesn't have a gluten-free menu, but very accomodating is Pumpernickel's in Ardsley. (Shopping center next to Golden Wok). The first time I went there before I could even say I needed my burger cooked in a seperate pan with clean utensils and fries were probably no good..... my waitress said it all for me!!! Even crazier, was when I went back there a few weeks later the same waitress saw me and as we were being seated she remembered me (and not in a bad way - lol)

Also, in Ardsley (not a restaurant) is DeCicco's Supermarket. Huge, awesome gluten free section. They have Celiac Specialties Doughnuts, Conte's Pasta, Joan's gluten-free bagels, pizza, ect, Grainless Baker bread and baked goods and tons more.

Not sure if you want info for NYC but obviously there is a ton more there. Also, more choices in CT (not sure if you want that). Let me know.
