Rockaway River Barn

I came here for my birthday a week ago and I got the steak bowl and it was amazing. I do want to say that I tried ordering the empanadas which had a gluten free symbol next to them and the waiter informed me that they were not gluten free. This is because they are fried in the same fryer as other gluten items. I’m glad the waiter knew this information before I got it and got sick. I did not get sick from eating here and our waiter was awesome and very fun. Definitely would recommend coming here the atmosphere is amazing.

We had our holiday party there and I was assured they would accommodate my dietary needs, gluten, dairy, and egg sensitivity. Their accommodation meant that I could order off the menu from the salads or rice bowls and they would leave out the ingredients that I couldn’t eat. There was no appetizer or dessert for me other than fruit from the same plate as other food. My meal was a rice bowl with steak, which came with JUST rice and steak with a small portion of guacamole. I was very disappointed, since I paid the same price as everyone else for a buffet and I ended up getting sick anyway, so there was something in the food I wasn’t supposed to have. The steak was delicious, but I will not eat there again

(This was pre-covid, FWIW) The waitress really had little knowledge or interest. My main option was a salad, and they didn’t even know if the dressing was GF. Cross contamination everywhere. The pizzas are made with shared sauce (picture ladles re-dipped in the pot after touching regular pizzas and pastas) and in the same space. It’s honestly insulting and dangerous. I rarely leave reviews like this but this is the type of place that can really hurt someone with celiac.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious! Well marked menu. Incredible spinach &mushroom roll appetizer! Staff knowledgeable and double checked when I asked if GF pasta was boiled in same water as non GF items. And 2 GF desserts! I have celiac and did not get sick.

Really good gluten free pizza. Yum!

The pizza is amazing and staff are very nice and knowledgable about gluten free options!

Gf pizza was awesome and reasonably priced. Unfortunately the menu is not marked for gluten free items except the pizza but the staff was very knowledgable about which items contained gluten.

Delicious gf pizza.

GF pasta option and pizza! Right off route 80 West (I think exit 37), perfect for traveling. I had the pizza it was awesome!! Their crust is handmade, not the typical GF restaurant pizza crust. Highly recommend!!
