Mostly gluten free and healthy portion sizes. - Grilled Chicken Swisswich - was an interesting mix of Bacon jam, gruyère, lettuce, avocado aioli on a toasted ciabatta. Not bad and came with some Herb fries. Service - (4/5) - servers were friendly and fairly attentive. Can get a bit busy and took bit longer than expected to get the order but regular check-ins afterwards. Atmosphere - (4/5) - it's at the bottom of the Edison Hotel so there isn't a dedicated restroom it's by the hotel lobby. Dim and homey feel to the layout and furniture/lighting. They have a partnership with a company that provides singing servers during dinner hour. Keep in mind they add a mandatory 5% fee on your bill for this! Overall - (4/5) - not a bad place and good for GF customers and those staying in the hotel.

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.

While it is strictly a "to-go" spot, the efficiency of the operation makes the morning rush manageable. The Logistics & Ordering The menu is expansive, spanning three screens with an incredible variety of bagel types, cream cheese flavors, meats, and cheeses. Despite the line, the ordering process was straightforward. A major plus: you have the option to have your bagel toasted before they assemble the sandwich. Our coffees were ready within 2-3 minutes, and the sandwiches followed about 10 minutes later--very reasonable given how busy they were. The Food I went with a classic Sausage, Egg, and Cheese on an Egg Bagel. * The Bagel: The egg bagel itself was phenomenal. It had that perfect, authentic texture that makes NYC bagels famous. * The Build: The sandwich was very generously portioned. Every bite was delicious, well-balanced, and exactly what you want from a hearty breakfast sandwich. The "Extras" One of the most charming and unexpected parts of BTS is their candy selection. They carry an array of nostalgic and "internet-famous" treats I didn't even realize were still in production (or existed at all!).

I got the gluten free Sourdough Ricotta & Pesto, & my friend got a gluten free Ricotta & Mozzarella Calzone. Looking back, it was definitely not the best GF pizza I've ever had (that belongs to Kesté), but this is still an amazing spot to grab a single slice of pizza that's not only gluten free & made in a dedicated gluten free kitchen, but also has plenty of flavor & other GF options (calzones, mozzarella sticks, pasta, etc)!

The arancini was a standout: perfectly crisp on the outside, creamy inside, and served with a rich, delicious sauce that tied it all together. We ended on the tiramisu, which was absolutely worth saving room. It was light, flavorful, and a perfect finish to the meal. What really elevated the experience, though, was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind and helpful--especially notable for New York--and it made the whole evening feel relaxed and welcoming. A small heads-up: it's a bit tricky to find, so give yourself extra time. That said, the hidden, underground subway setting is part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel unique. I'd love to see more restaurants creatively use these kinds of spaces in the future.

Tucked away in the most unexpected spot, See No Evil is truly one of those rare hidden gems you…read morealmost don't want to tell people about, but absolutely should. It is located right in the hallway of a subway entrance, next to a bar and across from a coffee shop, and it somehow manages to feel like a cozy, sit-down restaurant right in the middle of NYC. Don't let the odd location fool you, the food here is outstanding. The Neapolitan and Sicilian-style pizzas are both exceptional, with rich, well-balanced flavors and perfectly executed crusts. Every bite tastes high quality. Also, don't skip the house-made lemonade! The experience is even better because of the incredibly friendly and attentive staff. They were all so kind to so many people. From offering to keep leftovers in the fridge until a customer was done at their broadway show, to offering a scone to a young child while he and his father waited for their pizza to be done, it was more than just flipping a table and onto the next tip, it was humanity at its best. Be sure to give See No Evil Pizza a try. You certainly will want to come back again for more.

I've always wanted to try this donut every time I walked by, but is it worth $6.50?…read more Well I gave it a try today, the answer was easy! Unfortunately, the answer is NO, not worth the $6.50, maybe worth half the price. The chocolate flavor is barely there, almost nonexistent. In other words, the glaze was only for show.

I went with the classic everything bagel toasted with lox cream cheese. The lox cream cheese wasnt too fishy, it was just plain cream cheese with chunks of lox. I was slightly worried it might be too much but it was the perfect amount of flavor, not overpowering. The location is right near Madison square garden and close to Times Square. It was really busy and they don't have many tables so I ended up getting my bagel and eating it in a park in the city.

Sure there's a line but the line moves fast because the order takers are not playing. You better be ready when it's your time to order and pay attention because they will keep yelling next customer if you are not there when the person in front of you is finish. Once you order there's a lot of people standing in a crowd waiting for their order; just stand with them and before you know if your order is ready. It's super quick.

I was able to try their infamous and hyped up cardamom bun. Delicious! The hype is real. Not overly dense and the cardamom flavor comes through without being overpowering.

Not as good as the one I sampled in Copenhagen, Denmark. But it's worthy of your time and curiosity. Their sugar twist would pair nicely with a black coffee. Sometimes, it's the combination of your items that makes the meal memorable and delightful. One suggestion I would offer for the establishment is to offer to warm the pastries. That would further elevate the experience of your guest. Inside is small. You can fill a few tables and seating, but not a large party. Best to take away and enjoy on the road to the park. Overall, it's enjoyable, and you should stop in. I was inclined to give this place a 3-star, but they are on to something. The staff was nice, which pushed my award over to 4. Great job, team!

If you want crispy bacon, which is the only way I like it, then ask for it, and they will deliver. My bacon was so crispy! Loved it! Their veggie cream cheese is really good and filled with veggies.
