Review of Friedman’s

Fantastic upscale bistro on Upper West Side. Menu has tons of GF options and servers very knowledgeable around celiac. We were a little worried when they brought plates out (with gluten meal stacked near GF dish), but they knew what they were doing. Dedicated fryer (or rather no gluten in any of their fryers!) yielded the most delicious fries and moist, crispy fried chicken. Highly recommend.
