It’s a good choice if you need somewhere safe but it’s not my favorite spot in the city. Good if you’re on the upper west side.

This place is a dream - everything gluten free and does not at all taste like it. So much love and care goes into the food - my celiac daughters devoured the pita, pizza, pasta …. Heaven! And interesting dishes for the grownups too. Highly recommend.

Perfect for celiacs! Owner said no gluten is allowed in his restaurant! Food was phenomenal. I had the goat cheese ravioli, my parents had pizza, and my brothers had the black mushroom risotto & stuffed squash. My family and I were able to pass around plates and try each other’s food… all of which was delicious. My family was more than happy to go back and eat arba again later in the vacation! Vacations can be difficult for celiacs, I always hate the pressure that comes with the responsibility of choosing restaurants that are safe for me but also fun, affordable, and appetizing for the rest of my family, but Arba nailed it! My family commented that they couldn’t even tell that it was 100% gluten free and that level of dedication allowed me to relax and focus on being present in the table conversations. <3

I did not enjoy the food. I ordered ravioli it was cold and flavorless. On the positive side the desserts were good.

SO GOOD and tragically expensive. The za’atar pita is unreal — I didn’t realize how much I’d missed pita until I had it. The entrees were all out of my budget and I wish I could have tried them, but wow that pita and the apricot rugelach were tasty.
Just be warned that you only get one single 7-inch pita when you order a dip 😭
I will edit if I get glutened, but the website is very clear that they’re dedicated gf so I’m not worried :)

Excellent food for all! My family was excited to find this entirely GF restaurant on our trip to NYC and how friends with us who do not need to be GF also loved it. Everything we had was superb!
It’s a great opportunity to have many foods that are challenging to make at home and hard to find GF. From pastas and pita bread to great pizza, fish, vegetables … and don’t forget amazing dessert.
We were also able to purchase some GF bakery items to take home with us as in the morning this is an entirely GF bakery with both breakfast & lunch options.

100 gf. Mediterranean food. Delicious. Plus the desserts are phenomenal. Also nice outdoor seating. Highly recommend. We have hit all the gf restaurants and the food here is phenomenal. Tastes like food from an ottolenghi cookbook.

Everything in the restaurant is gluten free and kosher. (It’s Modern Bread and Bagel by day, Arba by night). I had a pizza and it was delicious, not at all like the cardboard-y tasting stuff you get at a lot of places. My friend sampled a few sides and loved them all. And, an unexpected bonus, the server brought us a few muffins/cupcakes that had been leftover from the day at modern. Delicious and highly recommend this place for dinner!

Delicious! I had an incredible meal at Arba and was brought back to the days before my celiac disease diagnosis when I could relax in a restaurant without worrying. The food is top-notch and the staff is friendly. Can’t wait to return.

No gluten or wheat used in the establishment (unsure about beverages; we just drank water). INCREDIBLE food. The pizza was the best pizza I’ve ever tasted, even out of the glutinous pizzas from my former life. (My dad, who can eat gluten, also agreed it was the best pizza he’s ever had.) They also had GF raviolis and gnocchi!! Friendly staff, as well. I will be going back there every single time I visit NYC.

I have tried the tomato/mozzarella/herb pizza, the spinach/artichoke/mozzarella pizza, the marinara/mozzarella/eggplant/ricotta calzone, and the flatbread with hummus. It was all delicious and I will 100% be going back again. Everything is gluten free (there are also vegan options) and it is so good it all tastes like non-GF food.

The service was excellent. Dedicated gf facility. The flatbread pizza was fantastic! The lox are incredibly fresh, which makes for a great topping for their quality bagels. Raviolis were very good - but pricey. Worth the splurge because it is difficult to find really good gf ravioli.

This was literally the best gluten free pizza I ever had. I had a regular cheese pizza with ricotta cheese added and it was everything. Wouldn’t even think it was gluten free.

Delicious food and so nice to be in an environment where you don’t have to worry about cross contamination. The ravioli were better than ones I had with gluten in the past! Can’t wait to go back!
Yes
Food is excellent!! Restaurant service is horrible. We live close by and have gone several times at different times of day. I waited to be seated without any acknowledgment that we Were even there for 10mins. Someone came out of the kitchen and pointed at us and still no one came to greet us! The tables were not cleaned. We waited forever for our food and a check. There is plenty of staff but they wander around or are on their cell phones. Please find someone to run your restaurant well.
100% gluten free. Great dinners - the owners husband is celiac and the restaurant does a great job doing naturally gf dishes
Yes
Delicious. We enjoyed flat bread pizza, ravioli, gniocci and so much more. Wonderful! No oats gf! Kosher. Pescatarian vegetarian
Yes
A bit disappointed. Only because I had higher expectations. I went with a meet up group, so it was family style fixed menu items. Although they said they could accommodate vegans, I felt like a second thought tonight. I had the pita with dips, which was the best part of the meal but now I’m questioning if the pita is really vegan (dips are). The vegan pizza (spinach and sauce only) wasn’t great. The vegan dessert was non existent until another guest that’s dairy free asked the meet up organizer (after asking 3 different servers). Overall food was so so and service about the same.
Yes
Hi Min! We are so sorry that we did not meet your expectations in providing you with enough vegan options. We strive to be able to accommodate all diets as much as possible and we clearly let you down. I can guarantee that all the dips and flatbread were 100% vegan. Given this was a pre-fixed menu, your individual requirements clearly slipped through the cracks, and we sincerely apologize for that. If you come back and order from our regular menu, we have a large selection of vegan dishes for you to choose from. Please let us know if you decide to come back and we will make sure to pay special attention to your party! I hope you'll give us another chance to meet your expectations! Best, Orly
Our waitress Lexie was new but totally helpful and professional about which options were also dairy free. There is an entire vegan menu! Breads and dips were fantastic, but main course was a bit lacking in flavor. Everything was FANTASTIC. 100% repeat customer. Love having this totally Celiac-friendly restaurant around. AND, it’s totally on-point Israeli food!
Yes
A gluten free gourmet paradise. I had a lovely birthday dinner here, it’s great for a special occasion (or just to treat yourself!).
Yes
It’s somewhat uneven. The small dishes such as the hummus, roast peppers are good. Bread is outstanding. But the main courses have been a disappointment. Big portions but not that interesting. Rather there were smaller portions and more thought to the seasoning.
Yes
Hi Wendy! We have changed our menu to have a lot more variety and dishes that are more accessible. I hope you'll come back and give it another try! We have a large selection of flatbread pizzas, pastas, fish dishes, vegan dishes, salads, crudo, breads and dips and new desserts. Hopefully the new menu will change your opinion about Arba! Best, Orly
Can I give this 10 stars???? What a fabulous experience we had with everything 100% gluten free and kosher 'the service was warm and friendly and the sommelier (!!!!) knowledgeable and personable. I would recommend you pace yourself...I was full for 2 days! Can not wait to go back! Save me a seat!
Yes
Gluten free and kosher pescatarian Mediterranean food. Good bread and a nice meal. Dessert was particularly good! During the day they are Modern Bread and Bagel - totally gf and kosher bakery.
