American

Ruthie’s All-Day stands out for celiacs who crave real comfort food without second-guessing every bite. With a dedicated gluten-free facility and a chef boasting serious culinary chops (Culinary Institute of America grad, James Beard semi-finalist), this place is an absolute haven for anyone who has spent years asking, "Is it really safe?" The menu is broad—think smoky brisket, fluffy biscuits, and fries from a truly gluten-free fryer—so you can finally order like everyone else at the table. While staff training and communication can vary during busy shifts (and, honestly, that's still nerve-wracking), the baseline here is a rare level of safety and variety that’s a huge relief for anyone with celiac disease.
