Sarah’s Favorite Allergy-Friendly Hawaii Spots

Hi! I’m Sarah, and I’m excited to share my recent honeymoon to Hawaii! I found many safe places to eat in Oʻahu, Maui, Kauaʻi, and the Big Island while managing peanut, tree nut, soy, sesame, shellfish, mustard, legume, and fruit allergies. One of my favorite spots was Paia Fish Market, where I got fresh fish cooked to order! For a sweet treat, check out Aunty Sandy’s Banana Bread, where I’d recommend their freshly baked banana bread!

Brooke’s Favorite Allergy-Friendly New York City Sushi Spots

Hi! I’m Brooke, and I’m excited to share my favorite New York sushi spots where I’ve safely eaten while managing my peanut, tree nut, dairy, egg, wheat, shellfish, and mango allergies. For my top picks, if you’re looking for a 100% gluten and nut-free kitchen, I recommend Nami Nori where I get the vegan mushroom dip and a flight of hand rolls. If you’re in the mood for the best oat milk espresso martini of your life, try Moody Tongue Sushi and definitely order the tuna tartare. And if you want heart-shaped sushi, head to Verge and get the Soul Mate Authentic Roll.

Claudia’s Favorite Nut-Free Spots

Hi! I’m Claudia and I’m excited to share my all-time favorite places to eat across the U.S. including St. Petersburg, Florida, Washington D.C., Portland, Maine, and more where I safely ate with peanut and tree nut allergies. One of my favorite restaurants King Sushi, where I got the best sushi of my life and experience the kindest allergy friendly staff. I’d recommend anything (including the crispy rice for my gluten-free friends, they used a separate pan). No nuts in house! For a sweet treat, I love Wildflower Ice Cream in St. Petersburg, Florida, where I’d recommend the Cookies and Cream.
