People on specialized diets often find themselves relegated to choosing from a small section of a menu. If you’re on a lactose free and/or gluten free diet in the Empire State, one place where you won’t have to do that is Ninja Gut. This unique restaurant in New York boasts an entire menu that is free of both lactose and gluten. They’ve got plenty of meat free and Kosher options as well, making this a great option for any kind of diner. Don’t feel like you have to be on a specialized diet to enjoy this place: they’ve got the same kind of offerings you’d expect from any restaurant: burgers, sandwiches, macaroni and cheese, and more. These typical dishes are just served in lactose free and gluten free fashion.
Ninja Gut features a wide variety of dishes from American, Italian, and Mexican cuisine. They all have one thing in common: they're all completely free of gluten and lactose.
Gluten is a type of wheat protein found in a surprising array of foods. Many people, including those with celiac disease, have a hard time digesting gluten.
Gluten free options at many restaurants are becoming more common. However, those particularly sensitive to wheat may find that the contamination from glutenous dishes can cause them problems. This makes a completely gluten free environment like that at Ninja Gut a much safer option.

Lactose is a sugar found in milk and cheese that many people find difficult to digest.
You may think that having a menu entirely free of gluten and lactose would seem limited, but you'd be wrong! They have plenty of cheesy options made using lactose free milk.
