Schmaltz Delicatessen

We ate here today on St. Patrick’s Day. I can’t say there were a ton of gluten-free options. However, they do have Udi’s rolls and bread and they came wrapped. They’re willing to toast them for you, but they do not have a dedicated space for that. But everyone enjoyed their food, and I realize that if I weren’t so concerned about cross-contamination, being very sensitive, I would’ve had a lot more options. If you are not super sensitive, it probably is safe to eat here. But I really liked that they had gluten-free bread options that came wrapped and they were recognizably safe gluten-free brand.

How confident are you that this establishment takes safety precautions against cross-contact?

NOT for Celiacs. They do have GF bread but they could not explain their preparation process or how they avoid cross-contamination. May work for fad-dieters or mildly sensitive people though.

Celiac friendly?

No

I ordered a sandwich on GF bread. The bread appeared to be wheat bread but I didn't question it bc one reviewer said the bread was good. Then I ordered another sandwich and it was made on a round white bread that was clearly GF. They admitted the mistake and gave me the money back on one sandwich. I told them I would be only mildly sick but this was dangerous for someone with celiac disease. We won't be back. It was expensive for a sandwich and obviously not well run.

Excellent pastrami, served on good GF bread (bought from elsewhere - each serving is in its own plastic package). Prep servers are very conscientious about avoiding contamination - separate utensils, etc. Highly recommended!

The gluten free bread is some of the best I've ever had! Wish they had gluten free matzo balls, though.

Can get any sandwich made on their gf bread. I had an "overstuffed" sandwich and the bread didn't get soggy or fall apart at all!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious oversized sandwiches on GF buns! A little expensive but worth it!!
