Best gluten-free pizza in New York

Emmy Squared specializes in satisfying Detroit-style square pies with a thick crust. Unlike quick-slice joints, Emmy Squared is a sit-down restaurant that provides a full dining experience (including drinks and dessert). Offering gluten-free options for two-dozen pies, Emmy Square is one of the best gluten-free pizza spots in NYC.

While getting a table is usually manageable, reservations are recommended, especially on weekends. With five locations in Manhattan (and two in Brooklyn), be sure to reserve a table at the right Emmy Squared (speaking from personal experience!).

Two Boots is named after Italy and Louisiana, two places that (when looked at on a map) look like boots. The founders of Two Boots were inspired by Cajun cuisine and New Haven (Connecticut) style pizza. Founded in 1987, this popular NYC pizza shop has 6 locations in NYC. The best part? Two Boots will gladly make any of the pizzas gluten-free upon request.

My advice Each Two Boots location has a signature “home” pie that’s unique to the neighborhood (check them out online).

Sauce Pizzeria blends Italian and Southern cuisines to create a heavenly experience. The hearty food and small-town vibes make you forget you’re in the big city. Gluten-free pizza enthusiasts will be delighted. While some wish the pies were bigger, I see it as an opportunity to try more variety.

The must-try is the white pie with fresh mozzarella, ricotta, red onion, sausage, and hot honey. Despite being one of the best gluten-free pizzas in NYC, Sauce’s drawback is the hefty $30+ price tag for a 10-inch pie.
