Review of Alinea

I went to Alinea for their Gallery @ Alinea tasting menu. You need to make the restaurant aware at least 48 hours in advance of any dietary restrictions. They did ask me questions about what I was able to eat gluten wise and it seemed to be a test to ensure I’m actually gluten free vs. it’s a lifestyle choice.

Going in based on my email conversation I thought they weren’t going to modify courses to accommodate gluten free but I was pleasantly surprised.

They did a great job to ensure every single one of my courses was GF and for things that couldn’t have gluten removed they made me substitutes of GF cakes. The entire experience was incredible and I would recommend it for other celiacs.
