This nice little place is tucked into the ground floor of the Kimberly Hotel in Midtown East. Everything, food, service was top-notch. My colleague had a chicken sandwich and enjoyed it. I had the (3) meatballs appetizer which was delicious. I then had a salad with sliced apples, prosciutto and grilled shrimp. This salad is a real winner. All in all, I recommend this for a business lunch without hesitation!

Even in November I was able to sit outside in a partially enclosed area and with a heater was perfectly comfortable. The waiter Milos was attentive and helpful . The branzino was quite good..but portion too large ..would prefer lower piece and less food. Overall very good..I would eat there again

The noise level was quiet & people spread out so there was a nice level of intimacy & privacy. The biggest benefit to dining here is that their gluten free kitchen is entirely separate. The apple & prosciutto salad was good. I had the sweet potato ravioli - I've never had such a good GF ravioli. I could have eaten more. I didn't love the tiramisu but I think it's because the kahlua overpowers the whole dessert & will next time try something else.

Wonderful option for gluten free food! The server took excellent care about the various food allergies those of us at the table had. Almost the entire menu could be made gluten free. The food was delicious. I can't wait to go back!

Great restaurant and amazing service! Loved that everything can be made in gluten free. Had a lovely dinner with family. thank you

The food was mediocre to below average, the wine list is pretty poor, and the service was really slow for a relatively quiet Monday night. There is really no separation between the restaurant and the hotel and it feels like you're dining on a train platform.

We were excited to go to Bistango as most things on the menu could be made gluten free. When our eggs Benedict arrived, we questioned whether the English muffins were GF? Turns out, they were not. It was clear that the kitchen simply toasted bread and put the same poached eggs on the GF toast. The eggs and the roasted potatoes were cold. The server apologized but did nothing about it. It was way more trouble than it was worth. Just disappointed as we were looking forward to eating there. We won't be back. If you are gluten free, be sure to double check to make sure what they bring you is what you ordered.

As a gluten free diner I truly appreciate Bistango's dedication and expertise in this area. My husband and friends who dined with us had no gluten restrictions had an equally outstanding dining experience. The food is absolutely delicious all around, beautifully presented and the servers and staff are highly professional and super friendly too. Will definitely be returning many more times in the future!

Delicious Italian food with many gluten free options. I loved the mushroom ravioli & salad with fig vinaigrette. I also had an excellent dessert the chocolate lava cake. This was my second time dining there & I plan to return.

My first experience could not have gone better. I have Celiac Disease, and the manager (Angela) and staff took very good care of me and provided excellent attention to be sure my meal was safe. Portion sizes were also fantastic, so I left with a full tummy. Thank you, Bistango!

An unusual restaurant in that it's Italian but has a gluten free dedicated kitchen. Everything on the menu was of very high quality- including the desserts.

Service was lacking — our server rarely checked on us. There was also some sort of grit in the water. While they replaced my glass, the issue was present in the other waters at the table as well. The outdoor space was underwhelming. I had asked for a separate check since it was a business meal, but instead, they split the bill in half and ran my card without clarifying. Because of this, my company won't cover the expense. When I brought it up, the staff was dismissive.

Excellent place for lunch especially if you have a food allergy. They did an excellent job accommodating our Gluten Allergy. Every item on the menu can be made gluten free. The food was very good. A good diverse menu of both breakfast items and lunch. We will definitely be back.

The food was amazing! As someone with Celiac Disease, I am always searching for a delicious gluten free spot. From the appetizers to the desserts, everything tasted fresh and delicious.

Ben

Beautiful restaurant, service was great/nice, food was super tasty. Kids really enjoyed their food. So many things are gluten free so that was the ultimate plus. Kids are already asking to go back. We want as a celebration brunch but it was a total hit. Server, gentlemen was fantastical.
