We came in on a Saturday and a lot of regulars were chatting up the staff. We got to hear the owner chatting with someone about the ins and outs of gluten free baking, nutrition, and celiac. He knew a lot about all of these and it showed in the quality of the product. We got a dozen cheese breads and I had an egg and cheese sandwich. So good and fresh! The bread was Brazilian style and served to us warm. The sandwich was served on a similar style of bread and it was delicious. We paid $30ish for a dozen pieces of bread, 2 sandwiches, and a dulce de leche roll. Super reasonable! Totally love this place and will come by if passing through again!

We did just eat in the car though because it was windy. We were greeted immediately and even on the phone the person was pleasant and professional. They answered all our questions. Thank you Uncle Skippy for your dedication. We will be visiting again.

Once I said hello he greeted me and he said the food will be done soon. It only took about 5 minutes more and he packed it nicely. I got the gf dumpling combo and gf veggie lo mein. All food was hot when I opened it. The lo mein is sooooo good. It smells and taste fresh. I got the gf dumplings fried. They were fried on the bottom half. The flavors from favorite to least favorite is chicken, pork, veggie and red bean. The texture of the dumplings and there filling is nice. You get a good crunch from the corn inside most of them. The red bean dumpling is very sweet so I'd eat those at the end next time. The dumplings came with a sauce that is a little sweet. It complimented the dumplings. I can't wait to try some more food.

From the moment you walk in, you feel the care and intention behind everything -- it's elegant, warm, and welcoming. The food is incredible. Everything tastes fresh, authentic, and thoughtfully prepared. The pasta dishes are rich and comforting, the appetizers are full of flavor, and the desserts are just as impressive as anything you'd find in a traditional Italian restaurant -- you would never guess it's all gluten free. Service is attentive and kind, with staff who really understand the menu and make you feel taken care of. There's a genuine passion behind the experience that stands out. What makes Senza Gluten by Jemiko special is that it doesn't feel like a "gluten-free alternative" -- it feels like a top-tier Italian restaurant that just happens to be completely gluten free. Overall, an amazing experience from start to finish. I'll definitely be coming back again.

Water was consistently refilled, staff checked in enough to make sure all needs were met without being overbearing, and everyone was friendly.

My (non gluten intolerant) family agreed - nearly everything was amazing. The ravioli was top notch, as was the lasagna. And the tiramisu was delicious (and huge). The lava cake was the only thing we thought tasted "gluten free" as it was a little gritty. A couple of negatives: they only take cash and Amex, and it's pricey, so be ready with the ATM. Also our server was either having a bad night, or should not be in the waitress game. Yikes. But the food was so yummy I'm still giving it 5 stars.

I started with the tamarind margarita. The tamarind flavor was a bit subtle and the drink was on the sweeter side, but it was pretty good. I also tried the passionfruit mojito, which was a little more tangy and strong. My husband enjoyed the strawberry mojito and tom collins. To eat, I had the burrata avocado toast. It was a great portion size, with two large pieces of toast. However, the flavor was a bit bland. My husband was happy with the chorizo omelette, which was also quite large. The decor is tasteful and they have digital menus on tablets. They also have a nice outdoor seating section. Perfect for date night (or day!)

On a beautiful afternoon, we decided to grab a table on the patio, and it was the perfect choice. The outdoor seating created a relaxed, inviting atmosphere that made it easy to settle in and enjoy brunch. The restaurant itself has a modern, stylish aesthetic that feels elevated without being pretentious. From the moment we sat down, the service was exceptional. Our server was attentive, welcoming, and struck that perfect balance of checking in without ever making us feel rushed. Now, let's talk about the food. The Tres Leches French Toast completely exceeded my expectations. I've had plenty of French toast over the years, but this one stood out. It was incredibly soft and fluffy with beautifully crisp edges, creating that perfect contrast in texture. The tres leches flavor was rich enough that it genuinely didn't need syrup--a rare compliment for French toast. Every bite was indulgent without feeling overly sweet. Paired with the perfectly cooked apple-smoked bacon and a bowl of fresh fruit, it was one of the better brunch plates I've had in quite some time. I also ordered the strawberry mimosa, which was bright, refreshing, and not overly sweet. It was the perfect companion to brunch. We couldn't leave without trying the Chicken Burrata Sandwich, and I'm so glad we did. The burrata was fresh and creamy, the chicken was juicy, and the spicy sauce added just enough heat to keep every bite interesting without overpowering the sandwich. Then there was the bun--soft, fresh, and sturdy enough to hold everything together. It tied the entire sandwich together beautifully. The fries deserve their own mention. Golden brown, perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, and fluffy on the inside--exactly how fries should be. Between the beautiful setting, genuinely attentive service, and food that delivered across the board, 179 Bar & Grill earned every one of these five stars. It's the kind of place that's just as good for a casual brunch as it would be for bringing friends or celebrating a special occasion. I'll absolutely be back--and next time, I'm already planning to explore more of the menu.

Everything on the menu sounded amazing and I decided to get the BLT on Focaccia. I was disappointed with the sandwich. For the price I was expecting a large, lush, fresh sandwich but instead it was the opposite. The bread was hard and not as soft and chewy like it should be. The bacon came straight from a container; wasn't heated up, just added cold to the sandwich and all the arugula leaves had tiny holes, which didnt make me confident it was stored safely or even cleaned properly; i took it off before eating the sandwich, which tasted very basic. I would definitely try something else to see if it's any better but I was disappointed with the product i received compared to the price.

The apple pie is just perfect, apples layered with cinnamon and a flaky crust. The Salted Butterscotch Blondie was incredible. I have had their Bacon, egg, and cheese on a biscuit and it was excellent. The biscuit was flaky and is just as good as the ones I've had in South Carolina. I also really like their smoked salmon on an everything bagel croissant sandwich. The service is amazing. They are kind, helpful, and it has a very homey vibe. Paying with Venmo is different, but not a big deal, and by the second time I went there, it was just second nature. I would recommend this place to anyone, and plan to go over and over while I live in Arverne.
