Hoexter's is a neighborhood brasserie on the Upper East Side, known for its Gorgonzola Garlic Bread and Double Smash Burger. It's a casual spot perfect for a relaxed dinner or weekend brunch. The restaurant serves New American dishes with a focus on comfort food classics. The "O" in Hoexter's is silent, adding a quirky touch to its identity.
Very knowledgeable staff, and almost everything on the menu can be modified to be gluten-free, including fries (they have a GF fryer). No GF bun, but they were able to do a yummy lettuce wrap burger.
Moderate confidence — some signals are inferred. Confirm details directly with the restaurant.
