We loved our experience at Joanne! They have long been a favorite for a nice meal near Lincoln Center with good gluten free options for my family members with celiac. This time, we also learned they have a nut free kitchen, which was wonderful for another member of our party with a severe nut allergy. The servers were very kind and the live music on the patio was lovely—festive but not too loud. Everyone had a delicious, warm, winter dinner before our show and we'll be back!
