Hell's Kitchen spent decades being genuinely rough, and now it's mostly theater schools and pre-theater prix fixe menus. The restaurants here are built around feeding people who have somewhere to be in two hours, which means a lot of bread-forward plates and not always a lot of thought about what's underneath the sauce. This list is the spots that actually handle gluten-free well. A good place to start is The Marshal, which does gluten-free pizza, or try Buena Vista Restaurant & Bar for Latin American. For more, our picks cover pizza, breakfast and brunch, and fine dining in the neighborhood.
