"Uzuki serves pure buckwheat soba noodles and buckwheat-based snacks out of a warehouse-like space in Greenpoint’s Japanese microneighborhood. Prices range wildly from bowl to bowl: the menu’s splashier soba bowls have toppings like a boatload of sashimi, but the $32 uni shiosoba in rich duck broth is just as satisfying. They also have gluten-free soba beer, and you can hang out with a date in the lamp-lit room, admiring the ceramics that the chef made themselves. If you're looking for more Japanese gluten-free dishes in the immediate area, Acre and Dashi Okume both have good options." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine
