Food and service was excellent! It's so refreshing being able to eat delicious gluten free food. We had the fried artichoke hearts with truffle aoli which I could have had 3 plates of those!!! So good. Then had the classic cheese burger with fries. I honestly can say I normally dont get burgers because they are either greasy or dry and the GF bun falls apart. My friend that was with me doesnt eat gluten free and she said she couldnt even tell it was GF!! This was the best burger I've had. Seasoned perfectly not dry nor greasy and I LOVED the bun. Our waiter, Madji, was great and very accommodating. Wonderful experience. Read less

Tight Quarters, Modest Flavor — but Quality Has Slipped We returned to Wild in the West Village for dinner on a busy Friday night, a spot we’ve visited many times over the years. The place was buzzing — every table inside full, the narrow dining room and tiny kitchen making movement tight, especially with the bathroom tucked right next to it. Guests and staff share this single restroom, which makes for awkward congestion when there’s a line. In summer, outdoor seating eases the squeeze, but in winter it’s elbows all around. Wild’s fully gluten-free menu leans Mediterranean, but this visit was disappointing. Our calamari arrived in a small portion, lukewarm, and with little care in presentation — a far cry from past visits or other calamari worldwide. For mains, we had the pepperoni pizza, the “Skinny B—ch” vegetarian pizza, and chicken Parmesan with rigatoni. Portions were modest, quality mediocre, and everything arrived cold. The chicken Parmesan was thin and undersized, while the rigatoni in red sauce looked like something from a much lower-tier restaurant. We finished with caramel crunch cake and tiramisu — both standard, rich desserts, but nothing memorable. Service felt rushed, with the server keen to move things along, even bringing the check unprompted while we were mid-conversation. Considering the portion sizes, quality, and overall experience, the cost of dinner simply didn’t feel justified. The space would benefit from an upkeep-focused remodel that preserves its charm while improving flow and comfort. The bathroom, still gas-station-esque, remains a sore spot. Once a standout for casual gluten-free dining, Wild’s quality has noticeably slipped over the years. #WestVillageEats #GlutenFreeNYC #SmallSpaceBigFlavor #DiningInNYC Read less

This fully gluten-free gem in NYC is a dream come true for anyone with dietary restrictions and even if you don’t need to eat gluten-free, you won’t miss a thing. We started with the crispy fried calamari, which came out golden and perfectly seasoned. Quoted from my husband, “you wouldn’t know it’s gluten-free”. The mozzarella local pizza had a thin, flavorful crust and was generously topped with melty cheese and a touch of basil — simple and delicious. My husband had the burger with a fresh side salad, and it was spot-on in flavor and presentation. And we couldn’t leave without trying their key lime pie was creamy, tart, and had the perfect graham-like crust (still gluten-free!). The vibe was cozy and laid-back, with attentive service and a solid drink menu to round it all out. Whether you’re celiac, gluten-sensitive, or just looking for tasty food in the city, Wild is 100% worth the visit. Read less

Visiting from Northern Virginia, I was incredibly impressed by the dining experience in New York City. The food was outstanding, and I was especially thrilled to find a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. It’s rare to dine out without having to explain dietary restrictions or worry about cross-contamination, but here, everything was handled with care and confidence. The lobster ravioli was absolutely delicious, and my daughter’s chicken Parmesan with freshly made gluten-free spaghetti was equally exceptional. Our server, Kathy, was wonderful, attentive, knowledgeable, and warm. She made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend! Read less
