Excellent! Good drinks. This midtown restaurant is on the corner of 29th and 3rd. The menu is diverse and not overpriced. I had salmon, which came with several sides for only $27. The atmosphere is rustic in an elegant way, if that makes any sense.
Loved!
Our first dining experience once we arrived in NYC...and my most enjoyable and delicious one! Everything delicious; pasta, risotto, calamari and their gluten free bread and pasta amazing! I would most definitely return in a heartbeat!!
Both food and staff are second to none! We ended up eating here for all 3 nights of our stay in NYC as they were so professional around a gluten & dairy intolerance. Food tasted fantastic and the location & atmosphere were great too.
Came here for brunch. The place was pretty empty. The server was very accommodating. Their Chicken Parm is one of the bests I have had in my life!! Their tiramisu was also really good. Will definitely come back to try other pasta dishes!
Since 1988, Bistango has been one of the best kept secrets on Manhattan’s East Side. No longer a secret, Bistango’s reputation for providing appetizing gluten free Italian fare in a casual atmosphere has made it a reliable neighborhood staple. As soon as we sat down the waiter asked if anyone at the table had any food allergies or intolerances. When I told her I was gluten free, he explained that (whether it explicitly stated so or not), every single dish on the menu could be prepared gluten free, including pizza, pasta and more. OMG. I’m in heaven. I started the meal with two pieces of complimentary gluten free and dairy free bread, with garlic and oil to dip.
Quaint space, relaxing with great service and food. Very reasonable pricing and good portions. Highly recommend and I am Italian and picky about Italian places.
Great Food, Friendly Service. I went to Bistango with my mom after a long day in the city without a reservation. We were promptly greeted at the door and got in after a very short wait. The server was friendly and asked if we had any food allergies, which we don't, but I noticed a lot of gluten free options on the menu. The food came quickly, and it was delicious! Both my mom and I were very happy with our meals. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to my friends, especially those that are gluten free.
Great restaurant, our best meal of the city! I was very impressed that they ask if you have any allergies when you order. The gluten free ravioli was devine. Deserts were also delicious :)
Great!. My fiance and I were in for New Year's Eve and this was just around the corner from our hotel on 31st. Great food, quick service, awesome atmosphere and will definitely go back if we're ever in the area! The owner even came out and said hello to all the tables - nice guy!
This is an incredible restaurant , I would recommend it to anyone. The servers are very nice and helpful. The meals are very reasonably priced considering the quality of the food. The gluten free version of foods is amazingly similar to the original recipe. The venue is very family friendly and each table feels very private. This is definite must see restaurant if you are in NYC.
Fantastic service, food & ambiance. Especially wonderful for a Gluten Free diner. Everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed our meal & experience. Reservation service was not working on their website so be sure to CALL TO CONFIRM. Highly recommend.
Bistango Restaurant is a delightful culinary gem. The ambiance exudes elegance, making it an ideal spot for a special evening. But what truly shines here is the food. The steak sandwich is a masterpiece, boasting tender, perfectly cooked beef, and an array of flavorful toppings. Equally impressive is the linguini lobster, a seafood lover's dream, with succulent lobster pieces intertwined in a rich, delectable sauce. The menu is diverse, offering something for every palate. The attentive service only enhances the experience. Bistango Restaurant is a must-visit for those seeking a memorable dining experience filled with delectable dishes and an inviting atmosphere.
The gluten free options are great and even included bread. The suaces were perfect and the service was spot on. I would eat here again.

Absolutely love this place!! Bistango is literally my girlfriend and I favorite restaurant out of the whole city. From the first time eating at the restaurant, the food will make your mouth water and like my mom use to say is “it must be good cause y’all quiet” Then the staff provided exceptional hospitality that made the experience ten times better and makes us want to come back for more, along with the food.
Now for the food, which by the way anything on the menu can be made gluten free!!! Making it gluten free you couldn’t tell the difference from gluten filled food. Our go-to food choices are: Charcuterie Board w/ gluten free bread 🤤, Green Spinach Ravioli*, Pancetta Mushroom Papparadella, Tiramisu, and Pistachio Cannoli. When eating this you can taste the freshness, all the individual ingredients, and the love & care they put into each of the entrees.
*Honorable mention entree: The Lasagna Bolognese👌🏽was an alternative to when the Green Spinach Ravioli, even though my girlfriend was devastated, but the lasagna did not disappoint our taste bud.
To wrap it up lol we will be coming back to be in foodie heaven again!

Food was delicious and they were able to make anything on the menu gluten free. My only issue, if you can even call it that, is that the servers didn't go into detail about the precautions they take when serving someone who is celiac. Just said there would be nothing to worry about and that I could order anything on the menu. Thankfully they were correct but would have made me feel better knowing that they have systems in place.
The gluten free pastas are amazing. I’ve never had a gluten free pasta that was unmistakable for normal wheat based pasta in terms of taste and texture. The pancetta was seated perfectly and the mushrooms were a nice addition as well. Highly recommended.
Great brunch. Just far enough from the theatre district that it's not slammed pre show. Quiet, intimate space, knowledgeable and relaxed service, great execution of food. Definitely some of the best quality for the value in the midtown for a high end brunch... The price is below average for midtown (entrees circa $20, cocktails for $11 which is a steal) and the food is serval notches up from the price. Had the Benedict and the breakfast risotto with jumbo prawns.
Nice place for Brunch. The flatbread a little disappointed. Steak and egg was good. The restaurant is inside a lobby of a hotel
Best experience to a celiac disease or not !
This restaurant will make sure you have a top service, everything on the menu could be gluten free. I’m talking of every type of pasta, freshly made, gluten free ! And it’s super delicious! Just 100% perfect experience! Thank you for an amazing dinner !
Not only is this one of the most delicious places you could eat, they have some of the most incredible staff, from maître d’ to chefs to anyone in their employ.
The level of care and attention was outstanding.
The gluten free EVERYTHING really made this celiac feel part of the real world. The prix fixe menu was an exceptional value, and their portions were substantial.
This is going to be my go to place for anything Italian in New York. I have been unable to eat at an Italian restaurant in decades, but the separate gluten free kitchen allows for more than any gluten free person can hope for.
