Excellent food and service. Many GF items on menu. Server explained everything well. Was also pleased as a vegetarian as was my vegetarian child and my meat eating child. We were all contented. Went back a second time during stay in Binghamton.

Amazing food! So many gluten free options beyond just "here have it on a gluten free bun." I was luckily able to have a nice birthday dinner out without getting sick 🙂 Delivers online through local delivery service BingBites. Pricing is similar to other delivery services and the functionality is surprisingly good.

This place is amazing! The menu changes seasonally and always has many gluten free (and other allergen friendly) options. The servers are knowledgeable, and the food is very tasty and fresh. They can substitute gluten free pasta and make other accommodations if desired.

Cute spot. We stopped for lunch. I had the gf pasta vodka with grilled chicken, it was very tasty. Server knew to note my order with an allergy and they take extra precautions to avoid cross contamination.

VERY knowledgeable about celiac disease. Most menu items are GF. They offer a great variety of options. The place is comfortable and fun, with beautiful local artwork. Both soup options were great. The chicken sandwich with brie and berry jam on a GF roll was fantastic, other than the roll fell apart---which is pretty common with GF. The dessert options looked amazing, can't wait to go back!

Used my Nima and it detected gluten in my chicken sandwich. Spoke to staff who said gluten and gluten free items are grilled on same surface which is cleaned between use. obviously this caused my meal to be cross contaminated. Staff apologized and did not charge our party of 4 for any of the meals.

Menu was labeled clearly gf and gfo (gluten free option). Food was great. We enjoyed the spinach and artichoke dip. They buy the chips rather than frying them there, so they are gf. My daughter had the kids grilled chicken, rice and broccoli. They usually boil the rice and veggies in shared water, but they were able to do it separately for us. our only complaint was the artwork on the walls. It was completely inappropriate for small children and awkward to look at (think- huge photographs involving nipple tassels and blood). I don't know what they were thinking. I'm taking off one star for the art. Hopefully it is a temporary display. Everything else was delicious and enjoyable.

Our server was knowledgeable and informative. I had the rigatoni a la vodka and thoroughly enjoyed it. We also had the coffee-flavored crème brûlée for dessert. They were not serving the raspberry crème brûlée mentioned by a different reviewer. This restaurant is a good find. Hope to return when we travel that way again. My non-gf partner raved about the burger he had there.

What a meal! I had a pomegranate Manhattan, spinach artichoke dip, penne ala vodka with chicken, and flourless chocolate torte for dessert. Everything was delicious and the portions were enormous! I could barely even eat half of my penne. Another member of the group is celiac and had their special, Cajun shrimp on cheesy grits and they enjoyed their meal quite a bit as well. Lots of options on the menu and felt safe eating there. Can't wait to go back!

Lots of gluten free options (including appetizers) on the menu, as well as meals that can easily changed to be gluten free. Our waitress was knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable ordering. I had the char chicken sandwich on a gluten free bun with a side of roasted fingerling potatoes (the only other GF side was a side salad). There are 2 GF desserts available - a flourless chocolate torte and a raspberry creme brûlée. I didn't have a chance to try them, but plan to on a future visit.

We had lunch here and it was great for our diverse group: 2 kids (one gf), 2 vegetarians, and one celiac. We had a range of options (fewer for the vegetarians) and all enjoyed it. Great chai tea latte!

I do a lot of traveling and find a GF diet frustrating at times. The Lost Dog Cafe is perfect and even has Redbridge beer at the bar. The staff was great and the menu spells it all out for you. A wonderful find on the gluten free highway!
