Smith & Wollensky

Had a wonderful experience for lunch. Chef Jorge spoke with me and said he could make me a crab cake with sautéed spinach. It was delicious (and I’m a Maryland girl so have high expectations for crab anything) and I didn’t get sick at all. I’m celiac and have a dairy allergy. Looking forward to more meals there!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

No dedicated fryer.no gluten free bread or rolls. No GF steak sauce... almost no GF SIDE DISHES ;think boring sautéed spinach... and ONLY GF DESSERT: sorbet. Bottom line: DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU HAVE CELIAC.

Love the oysters here. The horseradish is the best I ever had. They have a lot of gf option. We stop here every trip.

Stopped in with some family not expecting to be able to eat here. We sat at the bar and the amazing bartender (Ronan)was so helpful! He brought a menu that was marked with allergens. I ordered the hash brown and it tested gluten free with my Nima sensor. The staff was incredible and was even interested on how the Nima works :) when I asked what kind of ketchup they use he even brought out the huge can from the kitchen so I could look at the ingredients!

My daughter loved the steak. They Do NOT have a dedicated frier though. They did offer carrots as a side and had gluten free ice cream (haagen daz) vanilla, strawberry and chocolate.

Separate allergy menu but was hard to read. They said a new one was coming soon. Spoke to waitress about my options and she confirmed with chef before placing my order.GF rolls were very good. Had the lamb with no sauce and asparagus. It was all very good! Even better I did not get sick!

Had an amazing experience tonight. First time trying Smith & Wollensky, and they did not disappoint. Our server, Dianne, was wonderful. Very helpful, friendly, and attentive, particularly to my allergy. The steaks were so delicious. Best I've had in years. We tried the NY strip and the bone in ribeye. Broccolini was excellent as well. However, the main reason I'm writing this and giving five stars is what happened after we left. Once home, we realized my bf's leftover steak was not in our bag. He called and Steve was very responsive. He was able to locate the steak, still sitting in the counter in it's box. Then one of the managers, Alec, went above and beyond and offered to drop it off at our place on his way home so we didn't have to walk back. It's no wonder this place is still doing so well after over 40 years. Excellent food, wonderful atmosphere, and the most amazing staff. We will be back. Had planned to anyway, but this solidified it. Thanks again Alec!
