Just enjoyed our third visit here, and Next Door remains one of my favorite picks for a special celebration! The food is amazing, the servers excellent, and the whole team is very well trained in managing gluten and cross contact. I especially appreciate how welcoming our server, Jade, made me feel. It’s so nice to feel welcomed as a celiac (and not a burden, like at some other restaurants). The sushi is next level, the ribeye was perfection, and they even had multiple GF desserts to choose from! Can’t wait to go back!

Have been here a few times, servers are very knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross contamination. I am grain free as well so they made me sushi with cucumber wraps.

No surprise that they do a great job here because it’s associated with Wegmans. Most of the menu can be modified to be gluten free which is amazing. The server was knowledgeable and checked with the kitchen when unsure about something. They also have gluten free soy sauce and she showed me the bottle so I felt secure about it. Aside from being celiac safe, the food here is delicious. Love their sushi.

Positive experience, they did have a roll for my burger when I was there. Glutenburg White Ale beer and special 'biscuits' to replace the table bread. I had a great experience but I also would come to expect this from a Wegman's restaurant

Great food. A little expensive. Almost everything on the menu is or can be modified to be gluten free! They did warn me that they didn't always have gf pasta or buns available, but would be happy to check with the kitchen if I wanted pasta or a burger.

I ended up doing the lamb shank, with creme brulee for dessert. Delicious!

Staff was very knowledgeable, and service was outstanding! The majority of the menu can be modified so it can be enjoyed gluten free, which is such a rare treat! They even bring fresh baked gf bread to the table! I loved that I could get fun sushi rolls with tempura and flavorful sauces. The lamb shank was out of this world. They even have a huge variety of gf desserts! (Not the usual boring flourless cake/ice cream but real options!!) Can’t wait to go back.

We were in Rochester for a wedding over the weekend and added Next Door Bar and Grill at the top of our list to try. Two of the four of us traveling together cannot have gluten and to say that this restaurant was a major find is an understatement. From the moment we sat down to the moment we paid the bill our server took extremely great care of us. Upon learning of the gluten allergies (and a pregnancy) at our table she went right through the menu to let us know what was good for each of us to eat. Impressive is an understatement. The gluten free rolls they serve are the best I've ever had, and from what we were told they make a different flavor each week. There is no specific gluten free menu but she was very specific to show us what we could eat and how they could modify items to our need. My friend ordered a scallop dish - he said it was absolutely delicious. I ordered sushi with no hesitation. My friend, who recently found out he is celiac was thrilled when our server brought him out a scoop of ice cream with the most amazing gluten free caramel sauce as a little added treat. He couldn't believe the level of service and attention to detail this restaurant showed us. I hope Wegman's opens more of these restaurants at other locations. It was one of the best experiences I've had a restaurant!

I had such a fantastic experience here. They brought me gluten free muffins when everyone else had bread. They showed me which sushi was gluten free on our sushi platter, as well as having many naturally gluten free entrees. I got sorbet for dessert which was delicious. And then to my surprise they brought out gf chocolate chip cookies. I've never been so stuffed eating at a restaurant. Great place!
