I will be spending a few days in Manhattan and am looking for kid-friendly gluten free options near our hotel, which is on W. 63rd. I know there are plenty of options throughout the city, but specifically need something for when we arrive w/ 2 tired children (ages 4 and 6) right around dinner time.

Thanks!

I've eaten at both of these places and have been very happy with both. They each have a special, gluten-free menu available.

I was in New York last week - we dined out at Sambucas (mentioned previously). It's right off of Central Park so if you're "doing the park" it's handy. My only issue is I ate too darn much ! :rolleyes:

It's a family style restaurant - the pasta dishes are huge, even the smaller sizes. My DH & I wished we had shared one of those (yeah, the smaller one). The waitress did tell us that's the way they are set up - so you could share. They also have a kids' menu, but I don't think it's gluten-free. The gluten-free menu has some chicken dishes, salads, appetizers, and lots of pasta dishes. They also had Redbridge beer.

Pala Pizza has gluten free pizza and delivers if you're in their area.

Babycakes bakery is there too - it's small but if you need treats, they're yummy (they're off China Town).

Thanks for the input - we have 4 days, so I plan to try them all!

I go to the Upper West side 3-4 times a year. Sambuca's is YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you get down to Greenwich Village you MUST go to Risoterria at the corner of Bleecker and Morton- gluten-free pizza, pasta, breadsticks and yummy desserts. I dream about Joe's Famous Fudgie's- they're chocolate frosting sandwiched between two big, yummy bakery style chocolate chip cookies! It's small but great!!!!!!!!!!

For the UWS, as previously mentioned there is Sambuca. Also, there is Nice Matin (which I haven't tried yet, but I believe it's a bit pricey) and Pizzeria Uno.

NYC has tons of great restaurants with gluten free menus. Enjoy!

The gluten-free menu features soccas, a pizza-like dish made with chickpea flour.

I figured I'd add one more, since you'll be there for four days.

Thanks for all the responses! Looks like it will be easy to eat out, and I look forward to it!

I went to Nice Matin for lunch today and it was excellent! And not pricey as I previously had thought. They have both indoor and outdoor seating which is always nice. I had grilled chicken with bacon and roasted red peppers on a toasted Katz's gluten-free Challah roll. It was delicious! The gluten-free brunch menu is pretty extensive.

I definitely recommend Nice Matin for your trip. In addition to being on the UWS (your desired locale), they have great food and a wonderful atmosphere. Sit at a table outside and you can do some great people watching :)

Thanks, Jillian! I love going to brunch - we'll definitely give it a try!

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
